Inhofe's One-Man Wingnut Circus Goes International

Jim Inhofe flies half-way round the world to make an idiot of himself. Did no-one tell him he could have stayed home and done that?

Using taxpayer money, climate-change-denying Jim Inhofe flew to Copenhagen to put on a wingnut sideshow for anyone who would listen. But he found the European press less eager to humor nutjobs than their US counterparts:

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."

Another reporter — from Der Spiegel — told the senator: "You’re ridiculous."

Do we really need the Germans to do our job for us and show up the dumbasses we elect for what they are? And how the hell do we end up funding field trips for wrong-wing cretins whose only purpose seems to be to make us look even more stupid in the eyes of the world?
