Please note: As I processed the audio from the station in creating the podcast hours and snippets, I discovered that the studio "had issues". I have tried to amplify some sections that were impossible to hear at first. Other sections? Well, watch the Schlubcam snippets, especially for the first hour when we had Paul from the MCA folks in studio.
Our apologies for any angst!
Hour One:
Paul Punturieri from the Moultonboro Citizens Alliance (MCA) folks joing Doug and Skip to talk about openess and transparency in local government and how citizens have to be vigilant in watching their politicians (like Republican Betsey Patten who" sponsored a series of onerous law changes designed to thwart or diminish the powers of local government: HB114, HB72, & HB71. He demonstrates that motivated citizens CAN have a positive effect! Listen here!
Jack Kimball, Viet Nam era Vet and Pease Troop Greeters, comes on to talk about that work and the counter demonstration rally to the Islamfacist supporters that is to take place in Durham Center from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM this coming Sunday (
Skip and Doug talk about Patriotism and Outside Threats.
