A STOOGE ABROAD

(h/t Politics Daily)

Sen. Inhofe (R-Barbarians) goes all the way to Copenhagen only to make a fool of himself and hurt America's image abroad:
Jim Inhofe gets cool reception in Denmark

Inhofe’s aides eventually rustled up a group of reporters, and the Oklahoman — wearing black snakeskin cowboy boots — held forth from the top of a flight of stairs in the conference media center.

“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.”


What adds to the humor is the fact that Sen. Numbnuts then hopped on a place back to the U.S.! Did we pay for this farce?
