Portland Going to See Dr. Laura Tonight? WHO ISN’T?

Posted by Wm. Steven Humphrey on Fri, Jan 18 at 11:30 AM

As you may know, conservative radio maven/old biddy DR. LAURA SCHLESSINGER will be performing her one-woman show tonight and tomorrow at the Newmark Theater—so if you can’t afford the $54 bones it requires to sit in the audience and “BOOOOOO!!”, then you may want to join this guy who emailed us yesterday.

Dr. Laura Protest! Are you a biological error?
Tell Dr. Laura that her brand of bigotry is not welcome in Portland.

Notorious, homophobic, hypocritical, bigot, radio host Laura Schlessinger takes her hate on the road and right into your lap!

For two nights this week the Dr. will be appearing at the Portland Center for the Performing Arts- Newmark Theater.

Lets make sure that she knows that you can’t sell hate to Portland!

Please join together in the ArtBar & Bistro (open to the public and located in the rotunda of the very building where she will be performing!) and don your gay apparel for a toast to a Hate Free Town! Lets show the good Dr. what a biological error looks like… come on folks, lets get creative!

Dr. Laura Protest!
Friday Jan. 18th 7:00pm,
SW Broadway & Main Street

This sounds like fun to me! The weird thing about Dr. Laura is she seems to really think she’s got a fair/moderate outlook on things. For such an example, check out this week’s MERCURY WEB EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH DR. LAURA, conducted by our own Will Gardner… who certainly isn’t a “gay Dr. Laura apologist,” but he does have a complicated relationship with her.

Aiiieeeee! She’s going to EAT ME!

Senseless clods always put down persons of value and honor. Only fools register such undeserved complaints. Successful people like Dr. Laura, will always have to put up with the dregs of society and their unjustified criticism and hate. They are not capable of any acts of kindness nor will you ever find them doing anything useful. Their main purpose in life is to attack anything that is good and meaningful. They are incapable of caring about the welfare of others. They pride themselves on the talent for attacking what is good in peoples lives, and substitute their brand of hatred and hostility.

What this country needs is more people with the wisdom and dedication of Dr. Laura.

Thank you and we salute you!!
