A reporter asked: “If there’s a hoax, then who’s putting on this hoax, and what’s the motive?”

“It started in the United Nations,” Inhofe said, “and the ones in the United States who really grab ahold of this is the Hollywood elite.”

One reporter asked Inhofe if he was referring to California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Another reporter — this one from Der Spiegel — told the senator: “You’re ridiculous.”

After ‘Truth Squad’ Fizzles, Der Spiegel Reporter Tells Inhofe: ‘You’re Ridiculous’

James Inhofe (R-OK) announced that he would be going to the U.N.’ s climate change summit in Copenhagen this week to present “ another view.” “I think somebody has to be there — a one-man truth squad ,” he said. His “ truth squad” later expanded to three , with Sens. John Barrasso (R-WY) and Roger Wicker (R-MS) joining in.
