‘Bing Bing Bing': Trump Lets Loose on ‘Perv,’ ‘Sleazebag’ Anthony Weiner Trump was talking about Hillary Clinton‘s emails and then roped her aide Huma Abedin into it due to her involvement. But then Trump also brought in her husband, “one of the great sleazebags of our time.” Yes, Trump went on a whole riff about Weiner, who infamously engaged in sexting multiple times, calling him a “perv” and saying Abedin must be “desperately in love with him” if she’s staying with him. He riled up the crowd as he talked about Weiner and Abedin, and said that it’s pretty clear she’s telling her husband about some of the email stuff. Here’s the video:

Ted who started the 'illegals campaign' and when told he should tone down the rhetoric. replied "'No, a spade's a spade,' he said. 'You guys get these hang-ups. Goddamn it, how do we build a union? They're wets, you know. They're wets, and let's go after them."

>> Now its not common/normal for global climatic changes to reverse themselves in less than 100 years. Have you ever heard of a "local maximum" or "local minimum?" These terms are familiar to anyone who ever studied Calculus. These are the points on a curve when the current trend "reverses" itself (e.g., the point at which the line tangent to the curve has a slope of zero). As you can see from the graph below, it happens ALL THE TIME. That graph represents a very brief period in the Earth's history, and has at least 30 fairly significant such reversals, an average more than one every hundred years. Two other points: 1) You will also notice the MWP had temperatures roughly where we now are; and 2) Even with all this considered the variability in temperature over 2000 years has a range of about 1.0C. One degree, top to bottom, is what we're talking about. Get your breath. The sky isn't falling.

The earth was cooling at the beginning of the 19th century. Perhaps, that was toward the end of the Little Ice Age. It reversed itself by the end of the 19th century and the earth keeps getting warmer and warmer. Good, we wouldn't have wanted the earth to keep cooling. Recovery from the Little Ice Age was and is a good thing. Would you have wanted the earth to be cooler in 1900 than it was in 1800? BTW 1900 was before the big increase in fossil fuel use ... Coal was being used in trains and factories in 1900. Kerosene was being burned in lamps. Gasoline was hardly being used at all. Ditto for natural gas. Now its not common/normal for global climatic changes to reverse themselves in less than 100 years. It IS normal and common for climatic changes to reserve themselves within a century. The bottom and top of climate cycles have to happen sometime. *But even if it were normal and unavoidable, why are you adverse to cleaning up the air?* I'm not ... carbon dioxide isn't pollution. Isn't dirty. Real pollution - we have cleaned up most of it in the US. Now even that cleanup effort is getting to the point of diminishing returns. Remember the acid rain issue ... note that no one talks about it anymore. Our air and water are cleaner than in 1970. Except where the EPA has been working.
