Dr. Laura returns to CNN to defend her indefensible racial remarks
"The day after she engaged in the racially charged rant which eventually led to her deciding to step down from her radio show, Schlessinger apologized for having "articulated the "n" word all the way out - more than one time." But as the Rev. Al Sharpton pointed out, the repeated use of a racial slur wasn't the only problem with her comments - the "whole line" of her remarks "was extremely disturbing."

), but I don't see where she said anything wrong in that transcript.
) wouldn't take offense at the sort of comment she was saying hurt her. I can see how the COULD be taken offensively..but why didn't dr laura just tell the woman that if she loved her husband and felt the friends were good people..just to chalk it up to curiosity and say it was a good thing that obv the friends feel so comfortable around you they can say things without editing, and be happy with life. If she thought they were genuinely bad people..drop them and move on.
