From Steve Benin at Maddowblog: But even in a party thats uniformly hostile to the basics of climate science, Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), who won re-election yesterday by 40 points, stands out as unique. Consider what the right-wing lawmaker told Voice of Christian Youth America in 2012 about his latest book against global warming. [T]he Genesis 8:22 that I use in there is that as long as the earth remains there will be seed time and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, day and night. My point is, Gods still up there. The arrogance of people to think that we, human beings, would be able to change what He is doing in the climate is to me outrageous. Right. The 20-year Senate veteran believes climate science cant be real because it conflicts with his interpretation of a phrase in the Old Testament. I mention this because, as a result of yesterdays election results, Inhofe is slated to become the new chairman of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee.
