A c*****e c****e denier Inhoff, claims he knows nothing about science. Just oil right Inhoff?

C*****e c****e deniers like Inhoff are primarily the employees of the oil industry. They claim they know nothing about droughts or floods or hurricanes or tornadoes that set records in severity. They do,like Inhoff,know how to make snowballs made of styrofoam graciously supplied by EXXON. Now it is revealed that not only is the Syria conflict caused by Bucheney ineptness but that c*****e c****e has played a role. The drought there has had a serious effect on food supply and water availability for the last 5 years. Send Inhoff with his snowball to Syria to help with the c*****e c****e caused drought.
LA Times eviscerates 'Meet the Press' over c*****e c****e jokes

What's melting away faster? Arctic ice or Meet the Press audience size?
C*****e c****e denier Sen. James Inhofe, who also happens to chair the Committee on Environment and Public Works, got a lot of attention last week after he pulled a moronic stunt on the Senate floor by throwing a snowball to somehow disprove c*****e c****e.
While discussing the stunt on Meet the Press, Chuck Todd and guests had a good laugh (seen here around the 48 min mark of the show) about Inhofe's stunt. Watching a key member of the Senate, who has absolutely no understanding of climate science, make a mockery of the serious issue of c*****e c****e is oh-so-funny! Well, LA Times columnist Michael Hiltzik took note and let loose on Chuck Todd:
"Meet the Press" likes to swank around as though it's our premier network public affairs program. Yet somehow its producers and host think it's all right to treat a manifestly ignorant statement about c*****e c****e as "a fun moment" involving a "fun little prop" -- and to pander to American anti-intellectualism by implying that the g****l w*****g debate is just too serious and boring to waste time on, like high school kids grousing about having to go to math class. One can almost hear the producers of "Meet the Press" going, "What, c*****e c****e again? Cue up the escaping llamas."
How low can the news departments of our major networks sink? We've already reported on the decline of journalistic standards at CBS' "60 Minutes," in the context of its flawed and credulous reporting on disability and the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. And now "Meet the Press," by endorsing a display of pure ignorance about an urgent issue of public policy as a "fun" prank, cedes the last shred of its credibility.
It's true that there's room for levity in reporting on politics, but this effort was spectacularly tone-deaf. Ridiculing or minimizing c*****e c****e as a topic only wonks care about -- or conniving with our least-informed political leaders to do so -- is an abandonment of every principle "Meet the Press" should stand for.
That's gonna leave a mark. Let's hope Chuck Todd and his producers get the message. C*****e c****e is not a joke. There is no debate in the scientific community. It's time for pundits to quit treating it lightly and stop pandering to the most scientifically illiterate viewers. It's no wonder Meet the Press is seeing the lowest ratings in the history of the show.
