James Inhofe on climate change

Basically James Inhofe can't dispute the scientific consensus on climate change with any rational argument. He rejects the consensus because of who supports it. If the U.N. supports it, it must be wrong. If the White House supports it, it must be wrong. If Hollywood figures support it, it must be wrong. His is an interesting world in which truth is not defined objectively but by who says it. If these same people reversed their positions, Inhofe would be psychologically bound to reverse his regardless of the fundamental reality.
