" I wear some of those titles proudly."Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) @CPAC
Speaking at the CPAC conference Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) , got the crowd cheering loudly.



"I have been called --


-- dumb, crazy man, science abuser, Holocaust denier, villain of the month, hate-filled, warmonger, Neanderthal, Genghis Khan and Attila the Hun,"he announced.

"And I can just tell you that I wear some of those titles proudly."

Inhofe repeated his view that man-made global warming is "the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people," and he quarreled with a Bush administration proposal to list polar bears as a threatened species. "They're overpopulated," he declared. "Don't worry about it: The polar bear is fine." His staff handed out supporting documentation, including the claim that "MARS HAS GLOBAL WARMING DESPITE ABSENCE OF SUVs."

I wonder which of those titles he wears proudly?

1. OMG. CPAC is the outer edge, the crustiest crust of the evil pie.
The innards seem to be oozing out, :puke:. I will bookmark and read later and hope TDS devotes a week to it. MKJ

3. 'Mars has global warming' - Is that the constituency he represents?
I always suspected that right-wing Republicans weren't from planet Earth.

4. He didn't bother to reject the Holocaust denier accusation?
That crowd of wingnuts didn't mind it, I suppose. I wonder, was David Duke invited to their 'conference'? Seems he would have fit right in.

In 2008 the Dem nominee should remind voters at every stop that Giuliani and Romney were there. But he/she won't. They never do.
