Do you know who this woman is?

[Bertha Venation]

I was reminded last night of her existence.

[mcctatas]

1. Is it Leona Helmsley?

:shrug:

[Genevieve]

2. Anita Bryant?

[Orsino]

3. I think you might be right.

Strong resemblance.

[Sebastian Doyle]

4. Isn't she serving Florida orange juice in Hell by now?

That horrid beast is still alive?

[Genevieve]

6. No, Unfortunately she is still alive and spewng poison.

[Bertha Venation]

7. yes, she is still alive

You'll know when she dies by the parties in Eugene, P-Town, WeHo, the Castro, etc. . . .

[Bertha Venation]

5. Yep. Good eye.

Who can believe this evil woman is still alive? :grr:

[Genevieve]

8. Only the good die young (seems that way alot of the time).

[Bertha Venation]

9. And Harvey Milk was only 48. Too young to die.

"If a bullet should enter my brain, let that bullet destroy every closet door."

At least his assassin is dead. :evilfrown:

[Genevieve]

11. Outrageous that his assassin received a five year sentence for the

premeditated murder of Harvey and Mayor Moscone.

[Genevieve]

13. But (adding), yeah, at least he's dead. .nt

[Sebastian Doyle]

20. I didn't realize that bastard died

Twinkie overdose?

[Genevieve]

21. Suicide.

[Sebastian Doyle]

22. Ah, I just looked it up.

Figures he wouldn't have the balls to shoot himself. Fucking coward. I'll bet his section of Hell smells exactly like burning Twinkies though. :evilgrin:

[JoePhilly]

10. I was going to guess Liddy Dole .... with a bad haircut.

[mcctatas]

12. Moral Majority...

You call yourself the moral majority
We call ourselves the people in the real world
Trying to rub us out, but were going to survive
God must be dead if youre alive

You say, god loves you. come and buy the good news
Then you buy the president and swimming pools
If jesus dont save til were lining your pockets
God must be dead if youre alive

Circus-tent con-men and southern belle bunnies
Milk your emotions then they steal your money
Its the new dark ages with the fascists toting bibles
Cheap nostalgia for the salem witch trials

Stodgy ayatollahs in their dobble-knit ties
Burn lots of books so they can feed you their lies
Masturbating with a flag and a bible
God must be dead if youre alive

Blow it out your ass, jerry falwell
Blow it out your ass, jesse helms
Blow it out your ass, ronald reagan
Whats wrong with a mind of my own?

You dont want abortions, you want battered children
You want to ban the pill as if that solves the problem
Now you wanna force us to pray in school
God must be dead if youre such a fool

Youre planning for a war with or without iran
Building a police state with the ku klux klan
Pissed at your neighbour? dont bother to nag
Pick up the phone and turn in a fag

Blow it out your ass, terry dolan
Blow it out your ass, phyllis schlafly
Ram it up your cu*t, anita
Cos God must be dead
If youre alive
God must be dead
If youre alive

[Bertha Venation]

17. thanks

Not being a fan of the genre, I'd never heard this.

God must be dead if you're such a fool. Good words.

[Sebastian Doyle]

25. And since the subject of Harvey Milk's murder was brought up in this thread

The Dead Kennedys had a song about that one too. A re-write of "I Fought The Law" (written from the perspective of the piece of shit assassin).......

Drinkin' beer in the hot sun
I fought the law and I won
I fought the law and I won

I needed sex and I got mine
I fought the law and I won
I fought the law and I won

The law don't mean shit if you've got the right friends
That's how this country's run
Twinkies are the best friend I've ever had
I fought the law and I won
I fought the law and I won

I blew George & Harvey's brains out with my six-gun
I fought the law and I won
I fought the law and I won

Gonna write my book and make a million
I fought the law and I won
I fought the law and I won

I'm the new folk hero of the Ku Klux Klan
My cop friends think that's fine
You can get away with murder if you've got a badge
I fought the law and I won
I fought the law and I won
I fought the law and I won

I am the law
So I won

14. Ew. Why is she still living?

Looks like she ambushed Sgt. Pepper and stole his jacket.

[Bertha Venation]

18. Sgt. Pepper had better taste.

[grannylib]

15. I thought Leona Helmsley at first too, but then Anita Bryant popped

into my head...unfortunately...
What a hateful, venomous old hag.
I remember her singing at LBJs funeral. Eeesh.

[Tikki]

16. She looks insane....

She is all dressed up and thinks she is a colonel in god's little army.

[Fire Walk With Me]

23. Seemingly. The less time spent on it, the better.

[bookworm65t]

24. maybe Liza Minnelli?

26. Heh...filed for bankruptcy (twice) after her career failed

And the highlight of her golden years is performing at a Tulsa High School annual musical revue.


Then there is this picture:




http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anita_Bryant

Some Christian audiences and venues shunned her after her divorce. No longer invited to appear at their events, she lost a major source of income. With her four children, she moved from Miami to Selma, Alabama, and later to Atlanta, Georgia. In a 1980 Ladies Home Journal article she said, "The church needs to wake up and find some way to cope with divorce and women's problems."

In the same article, she said that she felt sorry for all of the anti-gay things she had said and done during her campaigns.<7> She said that she had adopted a more "live and let live" attitude.

She married her second husband, Charlie Hobson Dry, in 1990, and they tried to reestablish her career in a series of small venues, including Branson, Missouri, and Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. Commercial success was elusive, however; Bryant and Dry left behind them a series of unpaid employees and creditors. Her career decline is detailed in her book, A New Day (1992). They filed for bankruptcy in Arkansas (1997) and in Tennessee (2001).

She returned to Barnsdall, Oklahoma, in 2005 for the town's 100th anniversary celebration and to have a street renamed in her honor. She returned to her high school in Tulsa on April 21, 2007, to perform in the school's annual musical revue. She now lives in Edmond, Oklahoma, and says she does charity work for various youth organizations while heading Anita Bryant Ministries International. The ministry recently featured two articles championing her long-standing opposition to the "homosexual agenda".<8> The links have since been removed, and the site now contains only a biography (which discusses her anti-gay rights activism).
