This blogger does not necessarily support the political parties that purchase Google ads displayed on this blog

As many of you know, the Czech Republic is scheduled to hold early elections in October. For the record, I support the Green Party, even though I am an American citizen living and working here and cannot vote in Czech elections. I am not very enthusiastic about the Civic Democratic Party (ODS), even though I mind it less now than I did when it was controlled by its founder, current Czech President Vaclav Klaus. I don't really like the Czech Social Democrats very much either, but if forced to choose between them and the Civic Democrats I'd probably choose the Social Democrats.

Some of you may have noticed the banner ads for the ODS appearing on this blog. Apparently the ODS is advertising on blogs in the Czech Republic, including mine. I urge you to click on the ads if they interest you, because the advertisers support this blog. Therefore I am not going to ask Google to remove their ad. Nonetheless, I thought it would be right to publish this disclaimer so that people don't get the wrong impression and start thinking I support the ODS. I don't care if other Czech political parties decide to advertise on this blog either, and I even find it somewhat amusing. Let's just hope that the extreme-right Worker's Party, WHICH I AM STRONGLY AGAINST, doesn't start buying Google ads on this site. If they do, I will definitely have to ask Google to remove them.
