Ed Rendell Demands More Taxes

At a press conference yesterday, Gov. Rendell says he will “compromise” on the budget – so long as he gets $1.6 billion in new revenue.  That he, he needs some more taxes.  Also, Rendell continues to insist that the a Personal Income Tax increase is still on the table, even though House Democrat leaders and “blue dogs” declared it dead.  Of course, the next time House Democrat leaders and “blue dogs” stand up to Rendell will be the first.
