This is what we need more of from the MSM here in America; Jim Inhofe parachutes into the global climate meetings, finds no one around, rustles up what reporters he can find, and is promptly notified of his own foolishness:
The senator didn’t have any meetings scheduled in Copenhagen, and he did not see chief U.S. negotiator Todd Stern or the members of the House delegation, who were not scheduled to fly in until later in the afternoon.
But Inhofe’s aides eventually rustled up a group of reporters […]
“We in the United States owe it to the 191 countries to be well-informed and know what the intentions of the United States are. The United States is not going to pass a cap and trade,” he said. “It’s just not going to happen.”
A reporter asked: “If there’s a hoax, then who’s putting on this hoax, and what’s the motive?”
“It started in the United Nations,” Inhofe said, “and the ones in the United States who really grab ahold of this is the Hollywood elite.”
One reporter asked Inhofe if he was referring to California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Another reporter — this one from Der Spiegel — told the senator: “You’re ridiculous.”
Indeed he is. He just never gets to hear it from anyone in the MSM over here. Wouldn’t be polite.
Enjoy it for a second. Then remember that you and I, the American taxpayer, underwrote this whole nonsensical journey. And that, because he denies global warming, our MSM won’t question the carbon footprint of his idiotic, wasted journey. They’re too busy speaking truth to power by asking the conference attendees about that, repeatedly, and then glossing over the actual events of the meeting as “too complicated.” That it never once occurs to them that spending 1/1000th of the time they devoted to the carbon footprint canard would allow them to cover the conference at length and to a high degree of detail never occurs to them is a huge part of the reason why this country is disintegrating into an ungovernable morass.
