LINCOLN — State Auditor Charlie Janssen, in a statement Friday morning, said he is taking immediate steps "to make changes in my personal and professional life" following a World-Herald investigation documenting short office hours and long lunches during work hours involving beer drinking.
The 47-year-old Republican said he was "not a perfect man," and acknowledged that The World-Herald story was accurate.
"I apologize to the citizens of Nebraska for some of my choices, and effective immediately I am taking steps to make changes in my personal and professional life," he said. "While I deeply regret my past actions, I urge citizens to look at the work we are doing in the State Auditor’s Office."
The statement came in the wake of a World-Herald story documenting short working hours at his office, and long stays at a Lincoln sports bar. Over the past 20 working days, the auditor, on at least 10 of those days, had long lunches at the bar and was observed on five of those days drinking beer. The lunches often ran more than three hours in length.

So everything's okay. I'd vote for him.
Yeah I can see how that would work. Awesome! 
Who needs "auditing" if you're a puke legislature spending taxpayer money in a red state? We all know it just needs to go for tax cuts, anyway.
