It’s Your Call

Grant for a pool This is about a swimming pool here in St. Joe. I’ve seen where Savannah got a grant to help them with their pool, plus they raised some money. Why can’t St. Joe get a grant and then see if we can raise the money for the pool? Or do they just

Trashy town I see the dump took in 150 tons of trash on the clean-up from the citizens of St. Joe. I guess that just does prove the point: St. Joe’s trashy town. Always has been, always will be. It’s not cherry picking In Wednesday’s paper, there’s a call-in in It’s Your Call about cherry

Getting what you voted for Trump just approved a $20 billion bailout for Argentina at the same time the government shut down. Our military is not being paid. Federal workers are being furloughed. You voted for him.  Declaring war on his own country You know, Trump keeps saying he’s a great peacemaker. He’s solved all

Such a joke I was listening to Trump give a speech over in Israel and he couldn’t even make it through the speech without mentioning Biden and Obama. What a joke. How it works House Republicans should be in Washington. They are getting paid to do the people’s business and that includes working with House

He’s done nothing for the people This is on Trump. He hasn’t done one thing for the people who voted for him or anybody else. All he wants to do is get back at people. Isn’t it amazing? Isn’t it amazing how when a shoe’s on the other foot, it becomes such a burden? The

Why waste our time and money? I’m just wondering, we voted down twice, two times, going to a two high school system. We voted it down twice, but the school board decided, well, they’re going to go on with it anyway. Why waste our time and our tax dollars on voting for something that the

What’s going on with that? FOX Network is showing the president giving a live speech. CNN Network is showing the president, but you can’t listen to him. Instead, you listen to what their commentators tell you what he is saying. What’s that about? He needs to grow a backbone Our senator, Josh Hawley, voted for

Do your homework To the person getting tired of listening, I wish you people would start doing your homework. There’s 14 states that have given money to illegals for healthcare, California being one of the worst with $28 billion, with a B, of Medicaid to illegals, and is seeking $3.4 billion to profit back up

Just a reminder I would like to remind people that the speed limit on 22nd St. is 30. There is no reason to be flying down that road going 40 or 50. Someone is going to get hurt. Stop the payrolls I was calling to make a comment about the government shutdown. They want to

Very confused My husband and I downsized to a smaller home a year ago in November. It is an older home and perfect for us, but it needs some upgrades. We have called for estimates for new windows, new siding, and an updated privacy fence. This was weeks ago. Either they don’t show up, or

All your fault I’m calling about this recent government shutdown. It’s the Republicans’ fault. It’s the Democrats’ fault. If you really want to know this too, it’s every elected member of the U.S. Senate, every elected member of the U.S. House of Representatives, including the President and the Vice President. This is all your fault.

Let’s face it Let’s just face it, America is doing better than ever under the leadership of Donald Trump. Our country is finally back on track. We’ve had obviously no leadership or even a president for the last four years under Joe Biden. The Democrats are jealous. They’ve done absolutely nothing. They have absolutely nothing

Bad for the country Why do Republicans want to create problems rather than solve the problems of this country? Mr. Childish Trump and Republicans are so bad for this country and getting worse every day. Who would ever thought Republican senators, representatives and governors and many others would turn on the American people and support

Great parade Thank you, Mid-Buchanan, for having the homecoming parade at Agency. It was great. Thank you very much. They fear the voters The Governor of Missouri approved the new redistricting map drawn up by the Republicans. Why do they fear letting the voters make their own choices so much? All about money The Democrats

Just dandy I think it’s just dandy that the school district spent six to seven million dollars on a new football field and track at Central High School, and then they proceed to put up some sort of screening so the public can’t even see what they spent their tax dollars on. Do their job

Counting down the days 1,216 days until this nightmare is over.  What’s the deal? Why isn’t South 28th Street being resurfaced? That’s a terrible street, at least from 36 Highway to Mitchell. What’s the deal? You got money to throw at everything else. Why don’t you throw it where it needs to be?  A great

Go Trump Those of us who are not suffering from Trump derangement syndrome are happy what we voted for is being implemented. You go, Mr. President. More power to you, sir. Go, Trump. Politicians must work for us As Jimmy Kimmel said, We the people must tell the politicians what we want, not what they

Protect Ukraine When is America going to create an armed dome for the Ukrainian people like they did for the Israelis? They could be protected. Good place for crosswalks This is about an article in Tuesday, September 23’s paper, page B1, “City receives a grant for a pedestrian safety project by crosswalks” and et cetera.

I’ve got news for them I’m listening to all these Democrat politicians bad-mouth the police. I got news for them: They wouldn’t last five minutes without their security details around them. It’s ridiculous If the St. Joe School District wants to see a nice-looking football field, they need to go and look at Savannah. It’s

Strange definition Trump’s definition of free speech: Any pro-Trump statement. All others will pay dearly.  Who made that decision? Well, this isn’t a current issue. It’s about these new football fields they put in. I don’t know who the wise guy was that that made them silver or gray whatever they are. But call me

Wrong priorities I see where the city is going to spend $1.5 million on a rundown, dilapidated golf course in St. Joe. Why don’t they take that money and redo the streets and curbs and cut weeds in this trashy town?  Who’s next? What’s happening to our freedom of speech? First 60 minutes, then Stephen

Doing it for political reasons If the economy is doing as good as Trump says it’s doing, he wouldn’t be so worried about the Fed cutting interest rates. He’s doing that because his economy isn’t doing that good. With lower interest rates, it’ll infuse a little bit of money into the economy, make it look

Is that not a crime? Would it not be a crime to blow up some other country’s boat in international waters? Try people in courtrooms, not TV While I believe in freedom of speech, I must say that the news coverage of this horrible shooting hasn’t been as publicized since O.J. Simpson had his trial.

Free speech is free speech You know, when it comes to free speech, I don’t think you should lose your life or your job for saying what you think. The First Amendment covers speech, even bad speech or speech that we don’t like.  Bike paths are a disgrace I hate to say it, but typical

Great article Bob Ford did a great job on the article about Gary Chilcote and the Patee House. It’s been a real sparkling area for the city especially. Talk about madness This is in regard to “Big rip off” in It’s Your Call. Yes, the sewer bill is a big rip off. Talk about madness

Where can we hide? Gunfire victims suffered death and serious injuries on Black Wednesday, September the 10th. A 10-year-old girl was shot and seriously injured while sleeping in her bedroom in St. Joseph, Missouri. A high school student in Evergreen, Colorado, shot two fellow students and then killed himself. Charlie Kirk, a rising political star,

Where are we supposed to park? This has to do with the new sign at the post office that says postal vehicles only in the parking lot. Where are the customers supposed to park if they’ve got a package? They expect everybody to walk up the hill on Edmond, or they got to open up

Fix the potholes When is the city going to get around to fixing some of these monster potholes in this town? They’ll wreck a car; they’ll tear up a tire. Tired of construction I’m getting tired of the construction on Frederick by Il Lazzarone. I drive down that stretch of road every day, and it

The rule of law is important That person in It’s Your Call who called the judges dictators for not letting Trump do some of the things he wants to do, they’re following the rule of law. See, the rule of law is more important than what Trump says. Trump is trying to break the law, and

Please rethink it I was calling about Missouri Western. I think the idea of re-establishing a band is a good idea, but another thing I wish the sports department would consider is redoing and having on radio, KQ or KFEQ radio, football and basketball games. Many of us seniors can get to the game locally,
