Disclaimer
The content of this blog only reflects MY point of view. It does not reflect ANY other groups’ opinions or policies. Any overlap is merely coincidental. Any costs for this blog are paid entirely by me out of my own pocket, and I will not have it any other way.
This blog was started for myself, by myself, has gotten to the point where I now need to make this distinction. I never dreamed it would happen, but I now need to spell it out.
Any information I have displayed on this blog is just that, information I displayed on this blog. I make the decisions on what to post. I gather most of my information myself, meaning I do not cannabalize other blog’s work or that of any group, organization, or league for that matter.
No one spoon feeds me my posts!
Any information displayed here, in blockquotes, is information that I am quoting (and I take pride in my verbatim quoting, mispellings and all), but the commentary that preceeds or follows said quotations is mine and mine alone. If you know how blogs work, you already know that, but in case you don’t, that is how this one and most others do it.
On a more personnal note, I hope this is not what is to become of blogs. I hope that bloggers will not have to disclaim allegances and refuse contributions or compensation (of which I have not received!) for the good work we do. Some bloggers are hacks, stooges, and operatives no doubt, and make us all look bad. But most of us are doing it for noble reasons with nothing but good intentions.
I have never hidden that my name is Andy Aplikowski. If you are web savvy, you can even find my home address by googling me. I do not shy away from the fact that I am a Conservative, nor that I am the Chair of my BPOU (SD51 GOP), or a vice Chair for Anoka County Republicans. I’m also not shy to say that I am on the Blaine Park Board.
I do not hide behind a blog “handle” or remain anonymous as some bloggers do. I believe in full disclosure and wish that they did too. The ones who I do know, , do so for job reasons. They fear retribution for their political beliefs from their employers, which is a sad commentary on where we are in our society. A person’s politics can be used against them to get them fired.
I don’t know what else to say, but I hope things don’t get more anal with this wole thing.
My gosh, are we trying to reduce the size of government, or appease lawyers?
