FAREWELL

Dear Loyal Readers,

It is with a heavy heart that I write this communication.

After 16 years of journalistic excellence, I have decided to discontinue the Watchdog.

After 91 birthdays, I simply don’t have the energy and enthusiasm I once did and it’s time for me to step back and finally enjoy retirement.

To be honest, my health has also been failing me a bit of late.

I started the Anoka County Watchdog back in 2005 because I saw a county board out of step with the taxpayers.

Nowhere was this disconnect more evident than with the Northstar commuter rail project, a failed boondoggle and white elephant that has proven us right regarding our opposition.

I would like to think the Watchdog played a role in turning around the composition of the Board and helping fellow Watchdogs keep their local units of government accountable.

The Minnesota Watchdog played a similar role at the state level.

I have enjoyed every minute of fighting the liberals and standing up for core American values like individual liberty and free enterprise.

The fight is ongoing, but more important than ever.

The principles and values that built this country are under assault and the threat is real.

As Ronald Reagan said, “Freedom is never more than one generation from extinction.”

How true.

Now it is time for others to take up the torch of liberty and carry it forward.

In closing, I want to thank all of you for your friendship, loyal readership, and your commitment to fight the good fight.

God Bless you, your family, and the United States of America.

Sincerely,
 
Harold E. Hamilton

Welcome to my web site!

After witnessing governmental waste, fraud, and abuse in my home county of Anoka, I decided to get involved by starting a web site to expose this waste.  In 2005, 'The Anoka County Watchdog' was launched with little more than a computer, a small budget, and a burning desire to give taxpayers in Anoka County a resource to keep government accountable.

Little did I realize that 16 years later my web site would become the leading source of news and governmental information in Anoka County, much to the delight of beleaguered taxpayers and much to the chagrin of many politicians.

In that same spirit, I have launched this web site.  My intent is to provide you, the taxpayer, with the information you need to keep your federal, state, and local politicians accountable in every county, city, and township in this great state.

The only true bulwark against governmental excess is an informed and active citizen.  Thus, I hope you will contribute to this web site as much, or more, than I do.  It is designed to be a forum where concerned citizens across the state can share news, information, and ideas to return Minnesota to the bedrock principles of limited government and free enterprise.

​Sincerely,
Harold E. Hamilton
