50. She said it in the context of having claimed to have been hacked

Sun Jun 23, 2019, 01:04 PM

Jun 2019

just how am I supposed to interpret I don't believe I wrote these words when she literally claimed she had been hacked. She literally claimed she told the FBI that someone hacked her blog and planted those words and then her 'apology' is I don't believe I wrote these words. How is this different from a drunk puking on your carpet and claiming I have no memory of doing this, I don't think I did it, but I understand why you think I did since I am a drunken sod.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Joy Reid, an anti gay bigot, let Jason Johnson lie to our faces about a gay candidate [View all] dsc Jun 2019 OP

Agreed. It would not even be close. Joy Reid should have been fired. 58Sunliner Jun 2019 #1

She may be anti-Pete, but what makes you say she's anti-gay? Honeycombe8 Jun 2019 #2

Yes, she wrote anti-gay posts on an old blog. Then lied about it and said she was hacked. nt mr_liberal Jun 2019 #5

Isn't it premature to assume she wasn't hacked before the FBI has Jose Garcia Jun 2019 #66

She has acknowledged she wrote them. DrToast Jun 2019 #85

Here is a link that answers that question dsc Jun 2019 #9

The 1st one is a problem, if it's true. Honeycombe8 Jun 2019 #10

Neither post were doctored. Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #13

The red lines were added to screen shots that the person put in their thread dsc Jun 2019 #16

And here is what I am referring to about adults not helping gay kids because of this mindset dsc Jun 2019 #22

Oh and something from just today with this mindset dsc Jun 2019 #28

Once you add something to a post, that's doctoring it, technically speaking. Honeycombe8 Jun 2019 #80

She suggested adult gay men look to "convert" young boys. SMC22307 Jun 2019 #48

Oh wow, you don't know about that? cwydro Jun 2019 #56

I heard something about it a while back. Honeycombe8 Jun 2019 #97

Yes! True Blue American Jun 2019 #77

She apologized for it (it was a long time ago) and has moved on... Dennis Donovan Jun 2019 #3

No she hasn't dsc Jun 2019 #6

That is the sad part still_one Jun 2019 #8

She is vey ant Joe as well redstateblues Jun 2019 #11

False. She NEVER apologized. nt Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #14

That is absolutely NOT TRUE. You may not like her apology; you may be unwilling to accept it, BUT hlthe2b Jun 2019 #64

Fine, she apologized AFTER she lied about not posting those thing and said she was hacked. Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #67

and what do you call those who repeatedly post falsely that she never apologized? hlthe2b Jun 2019 #68

Her non-apology apology. Let's be honest. Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #69

it certainly WOULD be good if you'd be honest about this... hlthe2b Jun 2019 #70

I am. Joy is a liar with a half-assed apology who still hasn't qcknowledged that she Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #71

You repeatedly falsely denied she ever made an apology. So, I ask, what does that make YOU? hlthe2b Jun 2019 #72

Did she ever say I am sorry for lying about being hacked? Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #73

Dupe posting...self deleted. hlthe2b Jun 2019 #74

Deflecting NOTED. The question is about your failing to tell the truth. hlthe2b Jun 2019 #75

I am telling the truth. Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #76

You repeatedly lied about her apologies. Documented with links in prior posts. Shame on you. hlthe2b Jun 2019 #79

Read your links. Those are non-apologies. Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #81

You don't have to accept the apologies, but you don't get to falsely deny they were made. hlthe2b Jun 2019 #82

Which is why I called them a non-apology. She also never acknowledged lying about being hacked. nt Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #86

This. cwydro Jun 2019 #99

What does that make Sanders considering the essay he wrote in his thirties? SouthernProgressive Jun 2019 #87

I don't support Bernie Sanders. nt Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #88

Seems you don't support JR either. That didn't stop you from commenting. SouthernProgressive Jun 2019 #89

So why bring up Bernie? nt Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #90

My question clearly flowed from the op and your comments. SouthernProgressive Jun 2019 #91

I have no idea what Bernie wrote 30 years ago. Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #92

You don't know what Sanders wrote as an adult.... SouthernProgressive Jun 2019 #93

I am familiar with what Joy wrote because it was all over the news last year. Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #94

Again, wondering if you held the same hard line. SouthernProgressive Jun 2019 #95

What are you even talking about? Dr Hobbitstein Jun 2019 #96

Bull. cwydro Jun 2019 #100

Yes, she did. hlthe2b Jun 2019 #65

She never apologized. cwydro Jun 2019 #98

Agree. She may well have not caught the comment, heard it but quickly decided the best approach hlthe2b Jun 2019 #19

apparently she said the comment herself today dsc Jun 2019 #25

"apparently"? hlthe2b Jun 2019 #29

Post 23 says she did dsc Jun 2019 #30

So, she made a mistake, which journalists & hosts do all the time. Yet you excoriate her in a way hlthe2b Jun 2019 #31

There is a difference between being slow to recognize the right to marriage dsc Jun 2019 #33

As did we all. That you seemingly refuse to accept that others can change, evolve, apologize & mean hlthe2b Jun 2019 #34

I don't think people who posted as a near 40 year old adult dsc Jun 2019 #40

You refuse to accept/even admit she apologized... I hope your grudges keep you warm at night hlthe2b Jun 2019 #42

because she didn't dsc Jun 2019 #45

She certainly DID: NYT: "Joy Reid, MSNBC Host, Apologizes Again as More Incendiary Blog ..." hlthe2b Jun 2019 #46

Here are the words from your own God Damned link dsc Jun 2019 #47

"I do not believe I wrote that" means she doesn't believe because she doesn't belive those views hlthe2b Jun 2019 #49

She said it in the context of having claimed to have been hacked dsc Jun 2019 #50

You cursed at me once and that's all you get. n/t hlthe2b Jun 2019 #52

Yep. cwydro Jun 2019 #104

Right. And isn't the issue the cop didn't have his body camera on? brush Jun 2019 #37

It is as if we have this ten carat diamond and it is rated as Eliot Rosewater Jun 2019 #39

I think he should be fired, if as Pete Buttigieg has said, cops were told to have those dsc Jun 2019 #43

Meanwhile-all you LGBTQ should just accept that Joy allows a gay candidate to be misrepresented. 58Sunliner Jun 2019 #61

She didn't apologize. She tried to weasel out. SMC22307 Jun 2019 #55
