Nolte: 9 Indefensible Things NBC’s Lying Bigot Joy Reid Said

She lied:

Keeping it real … most straight men feel exactly the same way, and would have the exact same reaction to the idea of stripping naked in a sweaty locker room in close quarters with a gay teammate. Most straight people cringe at the sight of two men kissing… Most straight people had a hard time being convinced to watch “Broke Back Mountain.” (I admit that I couldn’t go see the movie either, despite my sister’s ringing endorsement, because I didn’t want to watch the two male characters having sex.)

Does that make me homophobic? Probably. And I’m not exactly proud of it. But part of the intrinsic nature of “Straightness” is that the idea of homosexual sex is … well … gross … even if you think that gay people are perfectly lovely individuals. For the record I’m sure gay people think straight sex is gross, too, it’s the that the nature of political correctness is that gay people are allowed to say straight sex is gross but the reverse is considered to be patently homophobic.

7. I’m Gunna Go Ahead and Out a Straight Man Who’s Married to a Woman as Gay

Hoping to destroy then-Florida Gov. Charlie Crist’s political career, Reid repeatedly and falsely outed him as a homosexual, even after he married a woman.

Before they came out as gay, Reid also outed singer Clay Aiken and CNN’s Anderson Cooper, whom she mocked as “the gayest thing on TV” because she had it “on good authority that Cooper is totally gay.”

8. Don’t Vote for Charlie Crist. He’s GAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY

• “Miss Charlie, Miss Charlie. Stop pretending, brother It’s okay that you don’t go for the ladies.”
• “When a gay politician gets married, it usually indicates that he is highly ambitious, and desires to put himself in a position to move up the power ladder.”
• “I can just see poor Charlie on the honeymoon, ogling the male waiters and thinking to himself, ‘god, do I actually have to see her naked…?’”
• “Miss Charlie … would immediately start planning the state funeral down to the last flamingo-shaped napkin and get his decorator to the West Wing faster than you can say ‘George Takei!’”

9. Homosexuals Sure Do Love to Molest the Children

Here is Reid trafficking in the worst kind of stereotypes:

And then there are the concerns that adult gay men tend to be attracted to very young, post-pubescent types, bringing them ‘into the lifestyle’ in a way that many people consider to be immoral… Ditto with gay rights groups that seek to organize very young, impressionable teens who may have an inclination that they are gay.

It should be noted that Reid wrote numbers 2-9 on her now-defunct blog a decade or so ago. Nonetheless, during this time, she was not some young, immature college student enjoying the freedom of self-publishing and looking to build an audience through provocation; Reid was in her mid-to-late thirties, and during the latter part of this time, she co-hosted a morning radio show and wrote a political column for the Miami Herald.
