More Bad Ministration

So the Bushies appointed a guy who doesn’t believe in family planning to be head of the agency in charge of family planning.

Well, what’s new, the outgoing Chairman of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works (James Inhofe, OK), says we don’t have to worry about global warming, and isn’t that a relief?

Why not? Because “God’s still up there.” (And I guess Inhofe’s message is that he’s still on the side of the fat cats and big oil guys.)

Transcript and video at Think Progress, which concludes “Despite Inhofe’s repeated efforts to muddy the picture, there is no real scientific debate over whether global warming is manmade or naturally caused.”
