President Obama made an unannounced stop in an Iowa City bookstore after his speech there today. Per the pool reporter on site with him, he jokingly picked up copies of Mitt Romney's "No Apology" and Karl Rove's "Courage and Consequence."
"What do you think guys?" he said to the reporters, before placing them back on the shelf.
The president did buy “Journey to the River Sea” by Eva Ibbotson, and “The Secret of Zoom” by Lynn Dornell for his two daughters. The books were recommended, he said.
“Of course the question is how they take to them but I think they're going to like them,” he said. “Nothing for Mrs. Obama?” another reporter asked. "Thanks for getting me in trouble,” he replied.
