Press Release: Tony Zirkle for Congress
Zirkle’s Current Schedule for the last 3 weeks of the primary
Here is my current schedule of events for the last 3 weeks prior to the May 6, 2008 Republican Congressional Primary. On www.TonyZirkle.com/campaign, I have posted my press release on Abortion Reforms. I have also discussed my Afghanistan plan with the South Bend Tribune, but I have yet to find the time to reduce it to writing. Generally, I want Afghans to be the central South Asian supplier of opium narcotic pharmaceuticals and purchase through Pakistan a route to the Indian Ocean. A similar heroin to pharmaceutical program has had success in Turkey. Feel free to contact me for more details.
1. Saturday, April 5, 2008 - 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm – Mishawaka High School Auditorium – Successfully completed.
April 13, 2008 Voice of the People – South Bend Tribune
Ninety minutes flew by and left me wishing for much more time.
Two gentlemen engaged in a political debate could not have been more knowledgeable, interesting and refreshingly open than were Tony Zirkle and Joe Roush, at their debate April 5 at Mishawaka High School. The two are GOP 2nd District congressional candidates.
Give me leaders who think outside the box, have the courage to express their ideas and the heart to find solutions, not excuses. When you have an opportunity to discover them, take it.” [Name removed]

4. Saturday, April 19, 2008 - 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm – Logansport High School Auditorium. Co-Candidate Mr. Roush “withdrew” from all debates on or about April 7. He then on or about May 9, e-mailed me and said that if I apologized to African-Americans he would consider debating me in Logansport. This will now be a town hall meeting, although I have it set up so that the other candidates can debate me if they appear.

Finally, the original 1st Edition Penthouse magazine will be shredded so long as two reporters and 1 television station from the press attends. If the press turns out in mass (unlikely), I have a source who may be willing to donate a complete or near complete set of Penthouses.
