    It’s both! Warming and cooling.
    I don’t care about boys being boys and doing the pushing thang. Better that those cat fights when the little ladies’ crawls come out…followed by biting. Nah, pushing ain’t nothing in the grand scheme of things.
    What I care about is the reason behind the pushing, aka, the science and/or science tampering. Fudging, omitting, altering….you know….lying.

    I liked this part @ 301 –
    “I was giving a talk to fellow NWS staff about the jet stream flow in the upper atmosphere. What it showed was large amplitude waves in both the northern and southern hemispheres,” the meteorologist told CFACT.
    –– ADVERTISEMENT ––
    “I explained that the only way the jet stream could get to be high amplitude is if the atmosphere was actually cooling,” the meteorologist said.
    “Right at the bathroom break, the Director of NWS, Louis Uccellini, put a hand on my chest and pushed me up against the wall and said ‘Don’t ever mention the word cooling again,’” the meteorologist said. “He did not mean it in a ‘joking’ way, he absolutely violated my personal space and was dead serious. This was back in 2014.”
    The meteorologist “described a culture of fear and ostracism at NWS and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) against those who dissent from the ‘global warming’ narrative,” CFACT reported.

    Paul, you were the one touting the Florida State House election as a blue wave phenomenon.
    It wasn’t.
    Arizona’s House (the Washington DC House of Representatives) special election wasn’t a “Trump trend”… but the usual suspects (I think it emanated from the geeks at 538) were playing with the numbers to show that it was evidence of the Blue Wave that some want sooooo desperately.
    Well, when you come out and say a local election in Florida was evidence of the Blue Wave but the underlying DEM power in the FL 118th was absolutely contrary to that narrative. And in the end, the AZ special did go against the narrative of a Blue Wave… and I can’t help but notice the advance polling of the Senate and House isn’t exactly stacking the deck against the GOP, who, if they get half the toss up seats (and that is a real big IF) will keep control of the House and the Senate, and will have a majority of the Goobernators.

    Our liar in Cheif is caught with a stinky one here. After stating many times he knew nothing about the $130,000 paid to stormy Daniels his lawyer, Gulianni just blew that cover by saying Trump “funneled” the money to Stormy. Liar, Liar, Liar…
    “Fox News host Laura Ingraham pointed out that President Trump’s new lawyer Rudy Giuliani contradicted Trump’s claims that he didn’t know about the payment made to adult film star Stormy Daniels, calling the conflicting statements “a problem.”
    Giuliani, who joined Trump’s legal team last month, told Fox News’ Sean Hannity Wednesday that Trump had reimbursed his personal lawyer Michael Cohen for the $130,000 payment made to Daniels to stay quiet about their alleged affair.
    But Ingraham, on her Fox News show immediately following the interview on Hannity, played a clip of Trump telling reporters last month that he didn’t know about the payment.”

    A true test of Republican values. Trump lied to the country over and again. Trump lied to his supporters directly in their face. Trump lied to his wife. But does anyone care? More importantly, does he care?
    Last month, a reporter on Air Force One pressed Trump about the payment, asking him, “Did you know ANYTHING about the $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels? Did you pay hush money to hide your affair while your wife was in bed recovering from delivering your baby?”
    To TV cameras and surrounded by family and friends Trump responded, “No. no. no” “it’s all fake news. Someone should be fired for saying such thing. I could sue them”

    JonSmith: “Squeaky deflection: but what about Bill?”
    Well, no doubt you were as hard on Big Bill as you are on Trump, being non-partisan and all, but here’s one essential difference I can think of.
    Donald Trump: Temporarily gets mixed up with a husband-beatin’ crazy woman that he met in a bar. Pays her some money to go away. She, of course, keeps the money and doesn’t go away.
    Bill Clinton: From all accounts….a rapist. Multiple times.
    In philandering terms, there’s no comparison between the two. I think the bemused outrage from the Right is that the US is filled with sign totin’ harridans who think the Clintons are models of proper behavior and Trump is Orange Hitler who is mean to wimmen. If you invented this situation, no one would believe you.
    I realize that any statement you make about Clinton is a way to defuse him as an argument. Referring to it as a deflection is itself a deflection, but all’s fair as they say.
