TALKING TO THE GROUP.
I DID A 'LIVE" REPORT OVER KMAQ-FM WITH MY CELL PHONE AND SAID TO GOV PERRY....'WELCOME TO MAQUOKETA", AND HE RESPONDED THAT HE WAS GLAD TO BE HERE.
SO, IF HE IS ELECTED PRESIDENT, WE CAN ALWAYS SAY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WAS INTERVIEWED ON KMAQ. THERE WERE 6 OR 7 MAQUOKETA COLLEGE STUDENTS ON-BREAK, PROTESTING WITH 3 SIGNS
....ONE SAYING TO CONTINUE CHURCH/RELIGION SEPARATION... AND
ANOTHER READ...."NOT AGAIN" AND THE YOUNG MAN SAID THAT MENT
NOT ANOTHER TEXAN FOR PRESIDENT.
A LITTLE EXCITEMENT IN DOWNTOWN MAQUOKETA TODAY.
AFTER JANUARY 3RD, THE HAWKEYE STATE GOES BACK TO NORMAL.
THE POLLS SAY THAT IF THE CAUCUS WAS TODAY, CONG RON PAUL WOULD
BE THE WINNER.
OH YES....I SAW STATE SENATOR TOD BOWMAN (D) OF MAQUOKETA AT THE
EVENT THIS MORNING.
