2. Aw Jebus my head will explode if I'm forced to choose between those
two equally horrifically unqualified choices.

4. I agree

Now if Paul Cameron's name was included, there would be someone I could easily vote for as the the least qualified.

But since Dr. Laura fooled so many into believing she was qualified to give advise concerning mental health issues I chose her.

5. You have a point
I'm going to have to vote for her. At least most people automatically dismiss Cruise as an invalid source of medical/psychiatric expertise. With "Dr." Laura many could be fooled, unless they have done research or been told she is a quack.

3. I'm going with Dr. Laura
Neither one of them is a qualified mental health professional, but Dr. Laura's been ruining people's lives far longer than ol' Tommy.

6. Okay, look. As much of a kook as Dr. Laura is, she once did have
a license in CA as a Licensed Family Therapist. I know her "Dr." credentials are not related to counseling, but she DOES have the education and training as a therapist.

Let's at least understand her background before we condemn her - which she richly deserves, I might add. She may actually be worse than Cruise, because she OUGHT to know better than to do what she does.
