Oklahoma should be embarrassed

It has several times voted for Senator James Inhofe, most recently seen flipping a snowball to an aide to prove that climate change was a myth.

No, I’m not kidding. Watch:

From The Huffington Post:

Inhofe doesn’t misunderstand the science; rather, he doesn’t need science as his guide, because God has already assured him there is nothing to fear.

In his recent book on climate change, which he titles “The Greatest Hoax”, he assures readers that the scientists — which he refers to as “alarmists” throughout the book — can be ignored because a greater Authority has already spoken.

“I take my religion seriously,” Inhofe writes. “[T]his is what a lot of alarmists forget: God is still up there, and He promised to maintain the seasons and that cold and heat would never cease as long as the earth remains.”

For those still skeptical of his climate change skepticism, Inhofe quotes from the source material, “one of my favorite Bible verses,” Genesis 8:22:

As long as the earth remains
There will be springtime and harvest
Cold and heat, winter and summer

As I said, Oklahoma should be embarrassed. This man makes boxes of rocks look like Nobel laureates.
