Default Can anyone say "about time"? Dr. Laura

http://www.latimes.com/entertainment...,7871292.story

I think I'll give Dr. Laura (who is no kind of mental health professional) a bit of her own style of advice on this.

You're being too sensitive.

Suck it up, Sunshine.

Apparently her doctoral thesis was on the "Effects of Insulin on 3-0-Methylglucose Transport in Isolated Rat Adipocytes".

What am I missing?

The only part where I find irony or her being too sensitive is her caving in and apologizing.

i think she be allowed to say it. Black rappers can say 10 billion times against themselves, fuck em. You don't want it used against you, don't promote the use of it in your own communities.

Agree for the 2nd time this morning.

I don't know who listens to her...I've heard of her but that's about it. After hearing the playback I don't think what she said was all that bad. Imho there wasn't anything wrong with the way she used the N word EXCEPT for the fact that she repeated it so many times which seemed a little over the top.

It was probably so liberating for her she got carried away....like a kid that's denied sugar by their mom then goes over to a friend’s house and devours all their candy
