the Republican Party for many examples.

As Roman Hruska famously said many years ago "Mediocre people deserve representation too."

However, it is never good to wake people who are sleepwalking and talking. Leave him alone and let him destroy himself.

He is one of those who own this world and is just letting us live in it or so he thinks. How he gets elected is beyond me. No one I know has ever owned up anyway to voting for his sorry ass.

Ask Rancid Paul...He might know.

was because NOTHING ELSE was getting through. This was the one chance to attempt to get something passed.

Congress just isn't functioning as it should, and it's pretty clear the Republicans are the problem, because they're allowing the Tea Baggers to run the show. While this may eventually lead to a complete melt down of the GOP, in the meantime everyone else suffers.

To answer your question, yes Inhofe IS that stupid. He denies climate change, and I think he needs to resign or at the least not run for office again. He's also corrupt, and his voting record clearly indicates who he represents (not the people).

On second thought, maybe he isn't stupid, but the people who vote for him are. He seems to have gotten away with it so far. I hope his hypocrisy between supporting assistance for Oklahoma's natural disasters and not supporting assistance for the Northeast after Sandy eventually exposes him for what he is. He's getting a lot of negative press locally, so maybe it will open a few eyes.

B) lotsof black people live in Virgin Islands. Aid for them not ok. Aid for white Oklahomans ok.

so I'm not sure his objection to the stuff for VI was because he thinks it foreign territory. (That's not to minimize his stupidity, which is prodigious.)

Hurricanes are humongous events which spread varying degrees of damage along the entire east coast and inland areas from wind and flooding.

Tornados are intensely destructive events confined to a local area.

I don't think he knows the differences between the two.

Hmm... I wonder

Ignorant Republicans most likely do not realize such things - Puerto Rico would be another.
