Our Lt. Governor Pulls A John Kerry

Don't get me wrong, I like Lt. Governor Dewhurst, but his quick change since yesterday is worth noting:

Lieutenant Governor David
Dewhurst did an about-face today -- just a day after saying he
would prefer a tax on business income rather than gross receipts.The Republican
said in a written statement today that he has always opposed a business or
personal income tax.

He told reporters yesterday --quote-- "I think I'd rather see a tax that's
based on income -- you earn money, you pay something, you don't earn money, you
don't pay anything."
