More snicker-worthy stuff from DesmogBlog

Kevin Grandia | US taxpayers on the hook for Senator Inhofe's conspiracy theories
Real world data? New studies? You would think that Chu would have heard of such things given his career as a scientist. Looking for evidence of this "real world data" I took a look through Inhofe's blog on the Environment and Public Works website, run by his political assistant Marc Morano.

Far from being a source of data, Inhofe's blog serves as a wonderful chronology of delusion. You also get a good idea of just how much time (and money) Inhofe's office is dumping into this effort to fulfill Inhofe's foregone conclusion that global warming is nothing more than a giant conspiracy.

I'm interested in whether the American public is okay with their taxpayer money going into this claptrap? In particular, I am wondering how people in California feel about a taxpayer sponsored effort to obscure the realities of global warming, which scientists are saying will have devastating effects on their very livelihood in the near future.
I'd be surprised if Inhofe has paid Morano anywhere near $45 trillion
New study calls for $45 trillion to cut greenhouse gases in half by 2050
