In honor of the conservative Christian singer's 80th birthday today I'm posting her 1964 top 100 hit song. The video also features a nice photo montage of her.

Happy Birthday, Anita!

80! Anita was one of the first nationally known entertainers victimized by the Gay Mafia. I still recall being stunned at how quickly the orange juice companies just dropped her sponsorship, as though she was a hot potato.

They wanted to make an example of her and terrify anyone else who might dare to disagree with their agenda.

On her birthday last year OK Governor Kevin Still issued a state citation declaring her birthday to be Anita Bryant day in her honor. I say good for him.

I remember when she got a pie in the face while speaking in Des Moines.
The guy who threw the pie said he was with the “International Pieface Conspiracy.”

I never knew about that incident. He sounds like the old version of an Antifa member. They talk a lot about
love but do things that are very hateful.

I was a young reporter in those days.

My little tape recorder picked up the sound of the pie, “Whak!”
