Congratulations, Voters. You Just Made This Climate Denier the Most Powerful Senator...

In handing Republicans control of the Senate on Tuesday, Americans effectively voted for the party's hostile plans against President Barack Obama’s environmental legacy. Their votes also put the Senate's environment and climate policy into the hands of the worst science-denier in national politics: Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe, who is almost certainly the next chair of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee.

Inhofe claimed in 2003 that global warming might help humanity. “It's also important to question whether global warming is even a problem for human existence. Thus far no one has seriously demonstrated any scientific proof that increased global temperatures would lead to the catastrophes predicted by alarmists. In fact, it appears that just the opposite is true: that increases in global temperatures may have a beneficial effect on how we live our lives.”

Gee whiz! Too Bad! The sea ice in the Antarctica will go away (whoops it is increasing), polar bears in the arctic will go extinct (whoops there numbers are increasing), Hurricanes will batter the united states more than ever (whoops, the numbers are at record lows), and islands in the sea will disappear (the ones they talked about are still there).

Call Al Gore, we need new predictions (since the old ones flopped) and a new internet for him to invent to persuade the gullible.

Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe is easily one of the top ten best U.S. Senators. Unfortunately, the competition to get into that elite group is still far less stiff than the competition to get into the top ten stupidest U.S. Senators club.

“It’s also important to question whether global warming is even a problem for human existence...”

This quote seems to make him a climate change embracer, not a denier. But “embracer” doesn’t provide the necessary frisson, I suppose.

There are a lot of reasons to celebrate the Republican takeover of the Senate.

Inhofe, as the new chairman of the Environment and Public Works Committee, is near the top!

James Inhofe is a real statesman.

I've heard him numerous times on the Senate floor debunk the global warming myth. He's also very knowledgeable on the subject.

Climate Denier = Denier of Anthropogenic (man-caused) Global Warming.

The new-speak of the greenie reds— denying Climate? Climate is what the weather is normally and seasonally, caused by the SUN and water vapor.

Noone is denying Climate— what morons these children be. Check the Arctic Ice Pack, bozos.

Longer growing season. If there’s more CO2 then there will be more plant growth and production of-— FOOD!

And don’t forget your home heating system with the SUV and Bush! My hubby still refers to turning up the heat as “Let’s annoy Obama.”

“The Erf is doomed!”


More to the core point - “my sense of self-righteousness for caring about the erf has been invalidated!”

They actually need to grow up before they start drinking.
