I am sorry that this happened, it isn't right! However, you could say any negative thing you wanted about DJT because he is a terrible president!
ReplyDeleteIndeed!
DeleteYu are so funny--but --I will NOT comment--LOLOL--Lynda
DeleteMaybe you can report it to the blogger site. It is YOUR blog and you can say whatever you want here but I understand you want it to be YOUR words. Icy in Ohio today. Hope you are warm and safe. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteSnowy here and COLD!! Winter eh??--- Lynda
Delete(((HUGS))) I think I'd try to bring it up to Blogger, too. You are entitled to your opinion and for sure, your opinion is shared by lots of people. I am included!
ReplyDeletehugs and blessings

Oh Barb--Who wud ever think eh that this could happen-Lynda
DeleteRD in AZ Here I agree it is your blog and you can say what ever you want it is my choice to be offended or not to be I have never been offended by you blog or your comments I would try to see how it could be fixed big hugs sweet lady stay strong
ReplyDeleteOh you are sweet-- thank yu so much---kinda shocking that my comments could be changed-- Lynda
DeleteI agree with RD. Bring it up with them. Be sure you do not have a virus on your computer, too. I have also never been offended. Everyone has their own perspective, and that's just fine. Also, it helps that I don't approve of the president, either. I do respect the presidency.
DeleteI could understand you entering those negative comments, cuz that's the way many of us feel.
Should this be like when we're in a social situation with new people...no politics or religion?
{{{HUGS}}}, your sis, Maggie
Maggie--- Yu are so good to try to figure this out--- kinda crazy-- Flitterbug says I must log in--to here-- How???--Lynda
DeleteLynda, I think you should bring it to the attention of the blog site you use. I had no idea someone could go in and make changes and put words in your mouth. As for what you might say about Trump, he is a terrible, hateful man. If you put something in your blog that someone doesn't like, they can stop reading your blog. It's as simple as that. As he continues to take a wrecking ball to Democracy and the Institutions, those who voted for him will someday wake up and realize they've been duped. Stay warm and enjoy your weekend.

Yes I certainly will Maureen-- -Lynda
DeleteI have never seen any derogatory comments about President Trump on your blog, so not sure what you’re talking about. You haves said he seems to be giving your country a hard time, and that is just a fact. Some of us have agreed strongly with you. I think some of us on the blog think of you as a friend, and friends share their worries and concerns, so the President has been mentioned by others, and not always in a great light. We readers can try harder not to express our views on the President,
ReplyDeleteAwwwww Yu are so good--- Yes we are all friends--i did not know my comments could be replaced--- Werid--Lynda
DeleteI think I know how your words are being changed. You aren't logging in before replying to comments, so your comments come through as being by "Anonymous" - and anyone not logged is Anonymous. So someone not logged in has come along and changed your words. VERY RUDE!! But the way to stop this from happening is ALWAYS make sure you are logged in before replying to our comments. I work on web sites in my day job. I really hope this helps. The part that bothers me is ... do you use two different ways to reach your blog? One for posting new posts and maybe your phone for replying to comments? Because I really hope that you are logged in when you write your blog posts.
ReplyDeleteNo--I only use the computer-- and how do I log in???
DeleteThat's terrible, Lynda. The world these days can be an evil place. Marti
ReplyDeleteCrazy eh Marti--= oh well--- I am OPK-=-just disappointed thr someone could do this-- but--- what the heck eh?-=Lynda
DeleteIt's Kathy. I am so sorry this happened to you. I don't know enough of all this - since I am logged in to Google but I still show up as Anonymous - and I have never seen any negative comments in your comments to us. If I had, I wouldn't believe they could ever come from you. The world has a lot of thoughts about our President. I'm not happy with everything he is doing but I'm willing to see what happens. This country has been around for almost 250 years - I'm sure we can weather the next 4 years! We all love you! I hope you have a better day!
ReplyDeleteYes---Kathy --- I dod not even know that my comments could be changed--weird--=- so whover it was, I hope it stops---Yes I agree-- We will; survive the "T" yrs for sure--Lynda
DeleteHi Lynda,
ReplyDeleteI have no idea how that can happen but if anyone doesn't like the comments, that aren't yours, they can jump to the next paragraph lol. As some suggested...report it and also log out and in. Hope that helps.
You mentioned a new friend. I'm curious.
We're under an extreme Arctic Air blast through Thursday...like below zero and highs of 2 degrees above. Oh goody and the gas meter will spin its head off. Come on Spring.
Stay warm and well. Big hugs
Marge from very cold, dreary St.Louis
Marge it is extremely cold outside here-- Lynda
DeleteWhat a shame that your , or anyone's, comments can be edited. I'm confused because it says that if you enter anonymously, you cannot edit once published. Beyond my knowledge.
ReplyDeleteAs to the President, I do believe that all of the negative comments do not help things at all - frankly, I'm still open minded and approve of many of the changes while not others. He was elected which means that over 50% of the voters approved of him and he deserves a chance - after all he has been in office less than a month. I will get off my soapbox and complain about all the rain. I should be happy that it is rain and not ice/snow but since I live in the midwest, anything is possible. Have a great day.
'hi lynda: I have no clue how that could happen. Did anything change when you moved - like your web provider, etc? I agree that you should contact the blog site provider. And happy Canadian flag day! But our weather this week needs to move on - this is like the winters we used to get years ago!
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that happened to you.
ReplyDeleteI didn’t agree many times with what was said, but I just moved on.
I still checked in weekly to see how you and your family were doing. I still cared. We had (or didn’t have) different opinions, but that’s what makes our countries great.
I hope that you can get it resolved. Get in touch with the blog site and have them instruct.
FYI, for me, I’m excited to see what can be accomplished in these next four years.
Jacquie
Yes one never knows eh what can be done-- so yu saw those comments also??--
DeleteI think I did, but it’s your blog. I didn’t see it as terribly offensive. I wouldn’t fault anyone with a different opinion. People don’t know how to just move on….
DeleteYou keep doing you. You are loved by so many on here. You could say the sky was yellow with purple dots and I would go, okay dokay!!!! Ha ha. Jacquie
Yikes! Someone changing or adding to your comments, that's disturbing. I'm sorry that happened. I was surprised, as you don't generally do a lot of political commentary, but just figured everyone is allowed to think and feel what they wish. And with some of the decisions taken in the manner they were; it can be divisive. The thing I like is, that we can agree or disagree with what others have said and continue on in friendship.
ReplyDeleteProbably getting some help from the website is best. If you had grandkids living close I'd say recruit them for help ... those young ones usually have mad computer skills. :D
Happy Saturday!
Hi Lynda-I also saw comments that were ?? and almost swore off your blog...didn't want to, so I'm very glad you cleared that up....always nice to check in on your family etc and how you and himself are doing after the move....Linda
ReplyDeleteI think a lot of it has to do with posting as "Anonymous"... allowing a loophole for editing! Anybody can comment as "Anonymous" and claim to be you! It's one of the reasons I comment as my Google self. I am sorry this happened to you, but now that you've clarified, we all know that it's not you saying these things, whether we agree with them or not. I try to hold my tongue/keyboard, but sometimes things do slip out. The place where it most matters is in the sanctity of the voting booth. Sometimes you WANT to say something, but I am sensitive to the fact that many people, especially around where I live, may disagree... and to be able to disagree without being disagreeable... well, sounds almost Canadian, eh? It's a skill!
ReplyDeleteTo log in when you comment, you have to have a Google account. When you click on enter comment, you see Comment as: there's a drop down box where you choose anonymous or Google account think that's the right wording). You can sign in with your Google email and password there.
ReplyDeleteWhen you go to leave a comment, in the drop down box there are three choices of identifying your comment - Google account, anonymous, or Name/URL. I use the latter one as I don't know what my Google account is or if I actually have one. It does get annoying to have to type in my name every time, but I do it.
DeleteWow, that took some doing to post as my blogger self! Maybe ‘cause it’s a shared device. Sorry there were upsetting comments by some rude person. We know you know how to mind your manners! Seems like online life is rife with pitfalls and dangers. I’m old enough I now flunk the tech security questions because I say I won’t click on things the younger ones see as ‘safe’. Maybe I’m just a suspicious, untrusting person 🤷♀️
