Reddit reviews The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your Future

>Sounds like they should have phrased the amendment better.

Except that the amendment specifies that "climate change is real and not a hoax", which directly contradicts the previous position of Inhofe who wrote an entire book claiming it was a hoax:

It also directly contradicts Ted Cruz's previous position:

>The last 15 years, there has been no recorded warming. Contrary to all the theories that they are expounding, there should have been warming over the last 15 years. It hasn't happened.

Rand Paul finally came around from his previous position that research was "not conclusive" and accepted the conclusion that scientists have been talking about for decades

There was no problem with how the amendment was written and many Republicans either changed from their previous position or are lying in their support.

Doesn't mean he didn't say it.


EDIT: He also wrote a book about it

Sen. Inhofe went to speak after Sen. Peters, and the first thing he said was "Mr. President, I think Mrs. DeVos will make an excellent Secretary" in an incredibly condescending tone, as if there are no qualms with her. He used the classic "character assassination" term, which is something Republicans have been using a lot lately because they are having a hard time defending the very substantial criticisms of some of these nominees. He is now talking about how it's bad that these votes are taking a long time. They cannot defend the criticisms of these candidates, they only point to what the past and say "I want you to do the thing you did with Obama's people"

I looked him up, this is a book he wrote.

Edit: And now he's just talking about religion. Get people like this guy out of office. Out of touch and out of his mind.

Edit 2: Bonus audio of him insisting kids are being brainwashed in schools, and that when they get out you have to un-brainwash them.

> I needed to check, but the mainstream Republican position on climate change is "head in sand", a refusal to look at evidence, or discuss the matter.

It varies, but straight-up denialism is well within the Overton Window. James Inhofe, author of "The Greatest Hoax", is the first example that comes to mind, but he's not alone. (The President, insofar as he has stable opinions, agrees there.)

> I don't understand what you are saying. Sorry.

I really am sorry that I'm having such a hard time articulating this. I'm not sure how I'm going so wrong.

The mainstream left and the mainstream right are visibly different on climate; the mainstream right contains straight-up flat-earth style denialism. The mainstream left and the mainstream right are generally equivalent on "HBD", in that no one on either side will say anything like "black people are stupid and poor because of their genes". Therefore, there's an asymmetry between the left and right on climate that's not replicated on "HBD" issues.

We taxpayers just paid James Inhofe a right wing Oklahoma shithead for these books on piffle and our politicians are going to read it.

The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your Future. by Senator James Inhofe (Author)

a study on double think no doubt

Ya know I hear a lot about circle jerks on reddit, here is one in real life that involves politicians all around us. Do you want an ill informed nutcase barking coal mad religious fundi nutter running the nation or someone with beans between their shoulders?

And let it be known the Jeebus gave white America the tools to go forth and bring home the beans, we can dig this land for its coal and burn it endlessly until the rapture. Praise the lord baby jeebus for all this money

Senator James Inhofe has never said "the hole in the ozone layer was a hoax".

He did write a book, however, called "The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your Future":

http://www.amazon.com/Greatest-Hoax-Warming-Conspiracy-Threatens/dp/1936488493

He's got a new book that outlines the specific biblical reasons why Global Warming is a hoax from the liberal media.

Here.

DNC executive wrote something nice to BLM? I'm not super impressed. We could go back and forth on various party surrogates all day. For example: Former SC GOP Exec Director Todd Kincannon tweets: "It hasn't been this dark in the superdome since all those poors occupied it after Hurricane Katrina"

The primary difference I think, between the left and the right in America currently is that it's really easy to find elected Republicans Senators saying things like climate change is the worlds greatest hoax. But it's really hard to find elected Democratic senators saying the other crazy stuff (vaccines cause autism etc.).

The Democratic party has crazy people, sure, but they're marginalized and mostly aren't elected congressmen or senators. The Republican party, on the other hand, elects their crazy people.

Link to the book he wrote (the reviews are hilarious) -

The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your Future: Written by Senator James Inhofe

Explain to me again that "conservatives don't hate climate science."

He wrote a book called the "The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your Future"

http://www.amazon.com/The-Greatest-Hoax-Conspiracy-Threatens/dp/1936488493

Here's a quote from him. He bases his climate belief on the fucking book of Genesis.

>Well actually the Genesis 8:22 that I use in there is that “as long as the earth remains there will be springtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, day and night.” My point is, God’s 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.

Do some goddamn research before you claim that he "isn't a climate change denier"

There's a lot of exciting stuff going on down here on Earth too. So exciting stuff happening on Mars gets a little drown out.

As for politics, politicians have been scoring political points attacking Evolution and claiming Climate science is a hoax. Academic institutions, especially the prestigious ones, have also been attacked as "elitist."

He wrote a 300 page book to deny climate change. He really believes it.

He actually has a book about climate change called, "The Greatest Hoax" https://www.amazon.com/Greatest-Hoax-Warming-Conspiracy-Threatens/dp/1936488493

He also wrote this streaming pile of shit

Same way James Inhofe becomes head of the senate environmental committee in the US despite literally writing the book on climate change denial..
Corruption and stupid voters.

This is his book on Amazon, and some of the reviews are ridiculous. I find it hilarious that bible thumpers call anyone who disagrees, or someone who believes in climate change ignorant and arrogant, which is quite the contrary. When it comes to climate change, they claim to have "facts" that disprove it, but blindly hold onto their childish beliefs when real facts are thrown at them. There is solid evidence proving man-made climate change, and to ignore facts, and stomp your feet saying there is evidence that disproves climate change is only delaying the inevitable reality of global instability. Their level of hypocrisy is extremely infuriating.

Wow.

Well, in the US, our chair of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works is a published global warming conspiracy theorist, so... perhaps we inherited a taste for perverse appointments from the mother country.

Interesting backpedal from Sen Inhofe here

Oh my sources don't fall inline with your deluded understanding of the world because you are told by someone that they are not real?

double sigh

9 Things You Need To Know About The Climate Change Hoax

There are real people that explain it and its by a US Senator!!

The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your Future

>Americans are over-regulated and over-taxed. When regulation escalates, the result is an increase in regulators. In other words, bigger government is required to enforce the greater degree of regulation. Bigger government means bigger budgets and higher taxes. More simply doesn't mean better. A perfect example is the entire global warming, climate-change issue, which is an effort to dramatically and hugely increase regulation of each of our lives and business, and to raise our cost of living and taxes. In The Greatest Hoax, Senator James Inhofe will reveal the reasons behind those perpetuating the Hoax of global warming, who is benefitting from the general acceptance of the Hoax and why the premise statements are blatantly and categorically false.
