GOP Senator James Inhofe (R-Oklahoma) had a big day: he became chairman of the Senate’s Environment Committee, and then proceeded to rant about how human-caused climate change is a bunch of nonsense.
Let’s go to the clip!
This clip has everything: references to a debunked “ClimateGate” stolen e-mail “scandal,” a poster of a Time Magazine cover from 1974 (claiming an ice age is coming), references to Al Gore, and even a claim that the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change “started” the whole idea of climate change.
Sen. Inhofe also promises to be there with the climate denial “truth-squad.”
Oh, boy.
