Star Parker guest co-hosts
On Tuesday, June 19, Star Parker will guest co-host "The View"
Star Parker, President of CURE and conservative icon will appear on ABCs The View as a guest co-host with Barbara Walters on Tuesday, 19 June 2007.
One of the guests will be Michael Moore who is promoting his new film Sicko, which promotes government run health care.
I certainly do not agree with Mr. Moore regarding health care reform, said Ms. Parker, however, I look forward to a lively discussion.
Prior to her involvement in social activism, Star Parker was a single welfare mother in Los Angeles, California. After receiving Christ, Star returned to college, received a BS degree in marketing and launched an urban Christian magazine. The 1992 Los Angeles riots destroyed her business, yet served as a springboard for her focus on faith and market-based alternatives to empower the lives of the poor.
Star Parkers personal transformation from welfare fraud to conservative crusader has been chronicled by ABCs 20/20; Rush Limbaugh; Readers Digest; Dr. James Dobson; The 700 Club; Dr. George Grant; the Washington Times; Christianity Today; Charisma, and World Magazine. Articles and quotes by Star have appeared in major publications including the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, and the New York Times.
As a social policy consultant, Star Parker gives regular testimony before the United States Congress, and is a national expert on major television and radio shows across the country. Currently, Star regularly offers social and political commentary for the BBC, CNN, MSNBC and FOX News. Her weekly columns are syndicated in Scripps-Howard newspapers nationally, she has debated Jesse Jackson on BET; fought for school choice on Larry King Live; and defended welfare reform on the Oprah Winfrey Show.
Star has written three books. Her autobiography "Pimps, Whores & Welfare Brats" was released in 1997 by Pocket Books, "Uncle Sam's Plantation" is released by Thomas Nelson in the fall of 2003, and "White Ghetto: How Middle Class America Reflects Inner City Decay" was released in 2006.
In addition to heading CURE, Star is a syndicated columnist for Scripps Howard News Service, offering weekly op-eds to more than 400 newspapers worldwide.
Star Parker currently serves a the founder and president of CURE, the Coalition on Urban Renewal & Education (www.urbancure.org), a 501c3 non-profit think tank that provides a national voice of reason on issues of race and poverty in the media, inner city neighborhoods, and public policy.

Michael Moore’s presence is a double cause for belemia, but Star may get in a few good shots.
She can ask him about his next movie on Diabetes.

Elisabeth might just have an ally now?

Why couldn’t Star Parker have been on the View when Rosie was there. I would have watched it just to see her thrash Rosie’s fat butt.

Beat me. I didn’t read anything but “The View” and “Michael Moore”. Some things just tick me off, and cause knee jerks.
