So LeBron James recently criticized Trump again and "Dr." Laura decided to take him on. She told him to "shut up and dribble", and said that he left high school a year early to join the NBA. She also questioned "those peoples" right to protest. Bald faced racism.
There were a lot of lies in her rant, unsurprisingly. James graduated HS among other things. Also, he has given literally millions of dollars to insure that needy kids can attend college. And...as an American citizen he has as much right to express an opinion as anyone else. So "Dr."Laura, shut up. Shut up and go away.

(32,091 posts)But LeBron has just as much right to express his opinions as any other American citizen.
He has spent millions out of his own pocket to send underprivileged kids to college and is building a new school. And many, many, other ways too numerous to mention how he has given back to the community.
What has Ingraham done besides get on TV and prove that she's an ass?

(512 posts)She later triedt to explain it away by saying its sort of a tagline because she wrote a book entitled ,"Shut up and Sing" when the Dixie Chicks criticized W. So she says Shut up and...whatever when celebrities rip her idols.

(70,744 posts)Back when she reinvented herself as a convert to Catholicism, I called the supposed beneficiaries, The Little Sisters of the Poor (below), and asked whether converts would show some more obvious signs of spirituality than what this person shows. The Sister said she had never heard of INGRAHAM and wasn't aware of any charity from her to The Little Sisters.

She has no individual talent, she just leeches off whatever name will bring her some immediate attention.
