Gail ‘for Rail’ Parker, Indy Green candidate for Congress, to appear on IPR radio Monday at 8 PM EST

This Monday, the 20th, at 8 PM EST I will be interviewing the Independent Green Party of Virginia’s candidate for US Congress Gail “for Rail” Parker in the first congressional district on IPR’s blogtalkradio channel.  The Independent Greens are the state affiliate of the Independence Party.  Submit any questions you might have in the comments.

Parker is perhaps most noted for her Colbert Report-created fame.  After the 2006 election, when the difference between Parker’s major party opponents was less than her vote total, Stephen Colbert played her radio ad jingle on the air.  As can be seen from her nickname, Parker’s main issue is the creation of more passenger rail in Virginia and nationwide.  She has run for office several times with the Independent Greens before this run.

  1. AND ON THE EAST COAST:

    Since O’Donnell’s upset of nine-term Rep. Mike Castle, opponents have unearthed unflattering age-old television clips.

    The most recent was aired by comedian Bill Maher, who dug up one of O’Donnell’s appearances on his “Politically Incorrect” show in 1999.

    The context of what led to her comments is not clear, and O’Donnell is laughing while she talks.

    “I dabbled into witch craft. I never joined a coven,” she said. ” ………. I hung around people who were doing these things.

    I’m not making this stuff up. I know what they told me they do,” she said.

    “………… One of my first dates with a witch was on a satanic altar, and I didn’t know it.

    CT, correct, I am not Robert E. Milnes.
    However, my father is named Robert E. Milnes. I doubt if this poster is him. He knows just about nothing about politics & even computers. I don’t think he could possibly post something like @7.

    GPC, what do you think about the other poster here, called “A Different Green Party Conservative?” If you’re not careful he could expel you from the Green Party! Wouldn’t that be something.

    And I have only posted drunk a couple times; I’m usually sober, including now.

    GPC, you think you are better than us? You really think a Green Party Conservative movement is going to be any more successful than PLAS or my strategy, in reality? But you could join our debate I guess.

    I think the Robert E. Milnes person is not our Robert Milnes, right?

    Too bad the Nazis and the Hoxaists never got together for a joint campaign to rid the world of left and right deviationists! Sucker Fools will never guard each other in concentration camps until Anti-Revisionist Nazism heismans all competing ideologies.

    Yes, get Robert on IPR BBlogTalk! He could have a debate with me. Yes, I will agree to have my voice heard, and I guess someone will have to know my phone number; but my name will still not be revealed.
