Elections have Consequences

During Wednesday's Senate hearing with Al Gore, Sen James Inhofe (R-OK) apparently forgot who was in the majority. Chairwoman Sen Barbara Boxer (D-CA) had to remind him of the rules of the hearing.



Sen Inhofe had made a big deal on his blog of the Committee voting to change the rules to allow Mr Gore to speak. So it had to be a bit embarassing getting caught trying to change the rules himself -- without the benefit of a vote.

The Senator is a critic the idea humans can influence global climate change. He once compared Al Gore's movie "An Inconvenient Truth" to Adolph Hitler's Mein Kampf.
