How else am I to read into this quip by Republican Senator Jim Inhofe at the recent Conservative Political Action Conference?
Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) got the crowd cheering early in the day. “I have been called — my kids are all aware of this — dumb, crazy man, science abuser, Holocaust denier, villain of the month, hate-filled, warmonger, Neanderthal, Genghis Khan and Attila the Hun,” he announced. “And I can just tell you that I wear some of those titles proudly.”
As an aside, Oklahoma Democrats would be well-advised to run a credible challenger against Inhofe in 2008. It’d be worth it alone to see what other “laugh lines” Inhofe produces during the scheduled televised debates.
(Hat-tip to the always sharp Senate 2008 Guru.)
