Nelson Signs, You Decide

Speaking to the Omaha World Herald, Sarpy County Assessor Dan Pittman stated that Senator Ben Nelson’s application for Greenbelt status for his Sarpy County hunting retreat could have been an “honest mistake” by Nelson (Nelson tax flap likely 'honest mistake' – OWH – 8/9/06).

Well, Pittman is certainly entitled to his opinion -- as are we, and as are you. We simply point out the applications that Ben Nelson signed twice (1999 & 2001).

We will revisit this issue when Nelson’s check arrives sometime after August 18th.
