Dr. Laura,
I remember the first time I ever heard you, I thought "TURN OFF THE RADIO, TURN OFF THE RADIO." You sounded soooooo scary! Really mean. Downright mean! And I turned the radio off.
My sister had given me one of your books, "10 Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives," but I didn't think it really pertained to me. I used to show my "cool" liberal friends the book and laugh, exclaiming, "This is the kind of sister, I have!"
I knew your reputation. I voted against you without even listening to you. Well, finally I listened to a full program. And then another and another. Now I listen every day. I understand, what you are doing. I can hear how much you have helped a lot of people. I even called once. It was an honor to speak with you. We are lucky to have someone like you who tells it like it is. No, it's not mean, it's not, scary -- well maybe a little -- It's blunt, yes, but, most of all it's GOLDEN. It's wisdom. It's amazing. Smart. And kind too.
But what I love the most is when you sing. When you sing along to Efim's music, just a little. It is so sweet to hear. Thanks Dr. Laura for all you do!
Denise
