Inhoffe is such a fucker ... |
|
He was just on CNN basically saying that leading scientists and evangelicals who came out against global warming were not really scientists nor evangelicals.

7. Inhoffe, who was in charge of environment, was a strict bush |
|
ass licker, in the pockets of big oil, and declared global warming to be a farce-launching a nation wide harangue against environmental activists and concerned scientists.
Recently, some evangelical groups have broken away from the wingnutters and declared that saving the environment, and coincidentally the world population was more important that hanging in there with their crazy brethren.
Inhoffe is engaged in condemning both environmental scientists as out of touch and the scientists as not actually being real scientists, the evangelicals as not real, authentic evangelicals.

12. Inhofe compared Al Gore & others who believe in global warming |
|
to Nazis using the "Big Lie" technique. (Project much, Senator?)

16. Sorry, had to leave for work and couldn't get more detailed. |
|
Basically accusing scientists of making money for what they say.
He even said that if it's cost beneficial for big business to ruin the environment, then so be it (paraphrase).
He said this in the face of leading business captains and evangelicals coming out and asking for emissions caps.
What a fucker.

3. Well. As he's not a real Senator, I guess he can say |
|
sh*t like that. Oh, wait. He still represents Oklahoma, right? Damn.
I recommend that the good people of OK air-drop him onto one of the melting ice flows until he gets it.

Actually i think he's crazy... cookoo bananas style. His stance on global warming is just whacky... stupid.. bizarre Even the CNN host was fighting back a smirk throughout the interview.
Shine a bright light on Inhoffe... if anything it will be entertaining

6. So which industry pocket owns him? I constantly see him denying |
|
global warming, and the only people who do it so "in your face" tend to be paid to deny. I figure as a Senator, there's some corporate constituency that owns him, just not sure who.

15. That was the most bizarre interview. Inhoffe just totally blew off |
|
the 2500 scientists, saying they all have hidden agendas involving money, and then referenced 1 scientist who disagreed with them. He even accused the evangelical (don't remember who it was) that was used as an example of making money off his stance.
Miles asked him why it was bad for the economy if we had alternative sources of energy to replace coal energy, and he said because these new companies would make millions of dollars and it would be devastating for the "people". Basically, he talked himself into a circle on that one. From what I understood in his answer to this, oil/coal companies getting rich is good, alternative companies getting rich is bad.
