Exactly!
"Dr" Laura is a buffoon...man, I can't stand that woman!
I hadn't thought of the word "buffoon" for her, Kim, but
it fits perfectly.
I've seen it written that what LS wants to be is the scolding
parent who says 'do as I say, not as I do'. Her own life is no
example you'd want to hold up. Besides the fooling around with
a married man in the workplace (a la Ms. Lewinsky), there are
those clothing-less photos which she at first claimed were
fake but then had to later admit were real. Some might forgive
those things as youthful indiscretions, but LS doesn't forgive
the youthful indiscretions of others!
Then there's the fake "guests" on her short-lived TV show, the
preaching that moms must not have jobs and always have the
choice to stay home with their kids (but she didn't!)
You probably know many more.

btw, check this out and see if you can guess the author. I thought
you'd get a kick out of it, particularly the "big house" line.
Hint: It was written in 1991.
"Democracy is buying a big house you can't afford with money you don't
have to impress people you wish were dead. And, unlike communism,
democracy does not mean having just one ineffective political party; it
means having two ineffective political parties. ... Democracy is
welcoming people from other lands, and giving them something to hold
onto -- usually a mop or a leaf blower. It means that with proper
timing and scrupulous bookkeeping, anyone can die owing the government
a huge amount of money. ... Democracy means free television, not good
television, but free. ... And finally, democracy is the eagle on the
back of a dollar bill, with 13 arrows in one claw, 13 leaves on a
branch, 13 tail feathers, and 13 stars over its head -- this signifies
that when the white man came to this country, it was bad luck for the
Indians, bad luck for the trees, bad luck for the wildlife, and lights
out for the American eagle."
