Rick Perry Picks Up Endorsement of Sen. Jim Inhofe, Climate Change Skeptic
ABC News ^ | Aug 29, 2011 | Arlette Saenz

Posted on 08/29/2011 7:48:03 PM PDT by Clairity

Gov. Rick Perry's most recent endorsement came today from Sen. Jim Inhofe, a fellow climate-change skeptic, who said the Texas Governor is the strongest Republican to challenge President Obama in 2012.

"I've known Gov. Rick Perry for a long time, and I am endorsing him because I know he is the strongest leader to run against and defeat President Obama. After three years of Obama's liberal agenda, Rick Perry is the right person to get America working again and turn our country in the right direction," Sen. Inhofe said in Tulsa, Okla., today. "We can't afford four more years of the Obama malaise. Look at what Rick Perry has done in his state. He is going to be a great president!"

Inhofe shares in Perry's skepticism regarding climate change, having repeatedly called global warming "the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people" and has argued the globe is moving into a "cooling period," a theory Perry supported in his book "Fed Up!"

"He won't cave in to the extreme environmental activists or the Hollywood crowd and their liberal agenda," Inhofe said of Perry.

I thought we didn’t want another 4 years of Obama. With this guy running we will get it regardless of who wins. Just great Republicans screwing it up again....Nixon, Ford, Bush, Dole, McCain, and now Perry....all the same RINO types. UGH!!!!!

The EPA alone will be on the hunt for dead people to vote in 2012 just to save their jobs.

I wasn’t aware that Obama considers global warming a fraud.

I am for Sarah or Michele or Cain....any REAL conservative. The guy you support is such a fraud. I mean how can you support a guy who loves Al Gore???? I just don’t get it. The two of them worked very closely together. Did Al explain to Rick about illegal aliens and the love he should have for them?

Algore doesn’t support Perry. Perry supported Algore 23 years ago, when Algore was pretending to be a pro-life, pro-gun, pro-defense moderate Southern Democrat.

What a snarky headline.

How can any sane person claim the MSM is not totally in the tank for Obambi?
