I know, I’ve never met a Republican who doesn’t stand on his little mountian of ego and decry to the masses for tax cuts. Sen. Kim Hendren is no different. Nothng wrong with tax cuts. Thing is, Hendren forgot to mention how much this was gonna cost. Might be nice to know the price of the farm before you put it up for sale.

Hendren said he wants to “pay back” taxpayers for a 3 percent income tax surcharge that was passed in 2003 to help overcome a state budget shortfall and was repealed two years later.Gov.-elect Mike Beebe has said he favors using the projected budget surplus to phase out the state sales tax on food, and some legislators have filed competing proposals for eliminating the tax. Hendren said he believes the surplus, projected to be $843 million by the end of the fiscal year, would allow for both his proposed tax reduction and a phase-out of the grocery tax, which he said he supports
