Just received this response to my inquiries from Adam Fogle at "The Palmetto Scoop (that’s him pictured above with Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue):"
Brad,
When you emailed me asking me to identify myself, I was happy to do so… nothing to hide. As far as disclosures go, you and I are very similar.
I started my blog on my own — not on anyone’s payroll. I do it because I enjoy it and it’s something I got into in Georgia on the website Peach Pundit (www.PeachPundit.com), which is run by RedState’s Erick Erickson. I love to write, I love politics, and I think I’m a pretty good blogger.
How much do I make from my blog? Like you: zippo (except a little revenue from ads).
And like you, I also like John McCain. No secret there. I think he’s best prepared to be our commander-in-chief. Earlier this year, I even volunteered to help out at a few events but never in a paid capacity.
After I started my blog, I was hired by Rick Quinn as an account representative for Mail Marketing Strategies, a direct mail business in Columbia.
I have continued my blog on my own. It is not and has never been a part of my official duties.
And my blog, unlike some others, has never and will never engage in anonymous character assassination. Yes, Rick’s dad is a consultant to John McCain. But no one pays me to blog.
I will call you in about 30 mins. to follow up.– Adam Fogle, The Palmetto Scoop
