Jim Inhofe's Wild Claim

Submitted by Adam Smith on Mar 16, 2012

U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) once called global warming "the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people." "The Greatest Hoax" is also the title of his new book, which he was promoting on Rachel Maddow's show last night.

As reported by Raw Story, Inhofe "said Thursday night that environmentalists spent far more money lobbying than the energy industry."
