Richardson owns up, finally.

In the Journal this morning, and on various blogs, Governor Richardson is finally admitting there will be "revenue enhancements" enacted during the upcoming legislative session.

I am bugged because everyone else has known, admitted, and pointed to, this inevitability all along.

Which means either,

  • Richardson truly cannot figure out how spending, revenue, and budget balancing work, or
  • he was being deliberately misleading in offering previous assurances that taxes would not be raised.
Clueless or truthless?

Neither works for me, nor for the citizens of New Mexico.
