... to your alleged "apology" for attributing statements to me that I never made.

You could have just said so - instead of trying to change the subject.

You have completely destroyed your own credibility. You accused me of saying things I never said, and then you can't provide any evidence of the "apology" you allegedly made for doing so.

I know you keep wanting to make this into a Bernie-v-HRC thing. But it's not. It's about you making accusations about a fellow poster that you knew were false, and then alluding to a non-existent apology you never made for doing so.

The links are there. Anyone can read them and know that you lied. And pointing out that I am a Hillary supporter isn't going to get Bernie supporters to ignore those lies - which seems to be what you're counting on.

Despite all of the vitriol on this board between HRCers and BSers, there is one thing they agree upon: lying about what a fellow DUer said is unacceptable to both camps.
