Inhofe Can't Leave Too Soon

James Inhofe once again demonstrates that he's probably the absolute worst person in the world to chair the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee (h/t TPMMuckraker).

Reuters:

The U.S. Senate's most vocal global warming skeptic, James Inhofe, on Thursday dismissed a U.N. meeting on climate change as "a brainwashing session."

Inhofe, an Oklahoma Republican who will step down as chairman of the Environment and Public Works Committee in January, told a news conference, "The idea that the science (on global warming) is settled is altogether wrong."

Not that Inhofe actually went to the meeting, he said 'some of his staff did.' Weird how they got out with their brains unwashed, isn't it?
