Thank you Mr. Inhofe for doing what we sent you to Washington to do ... represent us. It's those like you who are standing up to Obama's and the Democrats Socialist agenda that will make the difference.

Funny how Obama is in such a hurry to pass everything from Climate bills to Socialized medicine but he want's to "take his time" on sending more troops to Afghanistan like his commanders, the same commanders he personally chose, have asked for.

Hang in there Senator Inhofe and keep up the good fight!

Being power hungry is one thing, believing you can control the climate is a bit over the edge. And when it comes to Ms. Boxer, she did such a great job bankrupting Sad Fransisco we should let her get involved inall aspects of our money, even personal finances...NOT!

President Obama and his Democratic politburo must be held in check on thier statism agenda! The Federal branch of the U.S. Government has an impervious aristocratic attitude. "We the People" must put a stop to this in 2010 & 2012. Mr Inhofe keep fighting for the people.

KJNOKIE, TULSA (10/30/2009 7:24:57 AM)

Such backward thinking. Oh, forgot this is Oklahoma.

The Sarge, Okmulgee (10/30/2009 7:49:22 AM)

I agree with KJNOKIE. I guess when we are having to wear SCBA's to breathe maybe Oklahomans will change their minds, or maybe everyone loves the spare the air days in Oklahoma. The people without health insurance it is the Republicans who keep blocking this bill all because they are getting all kinds of money from the insurance industry. Wouldn't like to have all your medical bills paid no deductable like Mr. In Hoffe?

Eagle 4, Tulsa (10/30/2009 8:16:47 AM)

So...James will represent us by not representing us? He will pull the shades, turn out the lights and deny Halloween ever happened, right? Guess the seven Republicans can play Oklahoma Hold-em - That's Texas Hold-em with the twist that anyone can win but Jim gets all the money. Maybe he'll donate it to the road fund...(snicker)

El Capitan, Tulsa (10/30/2009 8:31:27 AM)

Okie dad- I know he doesn't represent everyone in oklahomas way of thinking...do you remember the lesbian debouchery tapes??

"This is, of course a grave concern for the citizens of oklahoma. Imagine girls having to go to the bathroom to relieve themselves, them going to the bathroom to relieve themselves.

On tape, mr. Coburn warns his fellow oklahomans to think about this issue. How has this catastophe happened to us??

When contacted by the ap for a follow up, Coburns spokesperson, John hart, had an explanation, lesbian debeachery has been allowed to happen, he said, because "our kids are getting mixed emotions about sexuallity.

Lesbians of America pack your bags there is a new lesbian Capitol of the world, and it's right here in oklahoma!!!

It may at first be hard to believe that a consertive Midwestern state is a breeding ground for lesbian Sodom and gammorah, bit we have a good source that says the state is in fact a breeding ground for lesbian debeachery..

Now if you believe this I had a mountain for you to ski on in Mexico!!

El Capitan, Tulsa (10/30/2009 8:44:12 AM)

Eagle- he would donate it to the energy sector, he has recieved more private funds from the energy sector than any other senator!!

El Capitan, Tulsa (10/30/2009 9:03:02 AM)

This coming from a guy who is on the fence about abortion? Mr. Coburn holds a pro-life stance "with regards to abortion"

This from a guy who says the biggest threat
to America is "the homosexual agenda"!

Hopefully he doesn't have to come back to the Oklahoma Capitol anytime soon, cause him and Sally kern will have to pack heat, because
the homosexuals are taking over!!!

No I am not gay, I just believe that everyone was created equal..I thought Mr. Coburn would feel the same way, since he used to be a beacon at a southern baptist church..I guess southern baptists do not believe everyone was created equal..

I like David boren alot, and I think he has been great for the university of oklahoma, but if he wouldn't have givin up his seat, then this jokester coburn wouldn't be a senator !!!

concernedgrandma, (10/30/2009 9:07:25 AM)

When Inhofe and Coburn make the news I am embarrassed to tell someone I am from Oklahoma. They do not represent everyone in this state and definitely not me. Put your blinders on gentlemen this might actually benefit future generations in this country. Too long it has been whatever was better for the company owners and the men with the money. It is now time to think about the people, the environment, the country and future generations. Get off your high horse and get with the program.

BWR, (10/30/2009 9:13:20 AM)

Oh pullease!!! Senator Inhofe has been in the Congress long enough to have seen continents morph. Global warming is real and it is impossible to avoid. The best we can do is slow it down. The evidence is overwhleming. We've been told since elementary school that another ice age would happen. It's just happeining faster than they expected. Jim Inhofe is in denial about global warming. He's probably right about the taxpayer cost of any legilation. We can't legislate nature.

Skeptic, Tulsa (10/30/2009 9:19:50 AM)

Inhofe may not believe in the science of global warming, but he sure believes in the science of air brushing and plastic surgery.

Skeptic, Tulsa (10/30/2009 9:22:36 AM)

....and OkieDad, maintaining a contrarian position in opposition to almost certain scientific evidence is not "representing us". It's making "US" look like fools, too.

onland36, Oklahoma city (10/30/2009 9:40:32 AM)

Inhoffe's boycott will raise the IQ of the hearing by about 100 points!

Few Clothes, America (10/30/2009 9:41:20 AM)

Thanks to Senator Inhofe for being concerned about Oklahoma and other Americans.

Slatz, Tulsa (10/30/2009 9:46:23 AM)

Nice 20 year-old pic, Jimmy. The embarrasment from 'Outhofe' continues..bet there's some polar bears out there that would like to meet with him.

fredsdad, Tulsa, OK (10/30/2009 10:03:51 AM)

"Boxer has put that cost at less than 50 cents a day."

The U.S. Treasury Department under little Timmy Geithner has put that cost at $1,700 annually per person.

So far as the polar bears? We are in danger of losing a maximum of 150 a year. Get Canada to cut back on the 300 permits it issues for hunting them, or place some restriction on the unlimited number of them that can be killed by Alaskan natives, and the problem is solved without ever touching anyone's heating bill.

grizz, tulsa (10/30/2009 10:19:56 AM)

Inhofe reminds me of the spoiled kid on the playground. If he can't have things his way, he goes home crying.

2ndjoyce, BA (10/30/2009 10:26:27 AM)

Here he goes again... sticking his fingers in his ears and singing "La la la la la".

Intelligent, rational people have intelligent, rational discussions.

DelawareSooner, Newark, DE (10/30/2009 10:58:21 AM)

2ndjoyce - without Inhofe at the hearings, the discussion has a chance of being rational and intelligent.

I explained to a friend the other day that Jimmy I is probably still in office because Okies refuse to vote for anyone but the incumbent. Look at governor Henry. He won by a few thousand votes, the local republicans said he would ruin the state, then got re-elected with 66% of the vote. The same % by which Inhofe gets re-elected.

DelawareSooner, Newark, DE (10/30/2009 11:00:39 AM)

sr71v3 - Power hungry jackals? Really? And the GOP wasn't doing its best to shred the constitution for eight years?

I'm sure neither party has taken a power trip vaccine in the last forty years. Its definitely time for a booster shot!

Slatz, Tulsa (10/30/2009 11:53:41 AM)

Delaware Sooner:
Ya know...I'm so tired of all this @#@@ that the Independent Party is starting to look pretty good...at least the local candidate is.

Skeptic, Tulsa (10/30/2009 12:28:22 PM)

sr71v3 .... "libtards"! Really? Seems it was your team that produced Sarah Palin! I don't think I'd be using derogatory names for those who used better reasoning than your team.

Skeptic, Tulsa (10/30/2009 12:34:38 PM)

I'm always amused by those conservatives who want to throw everyone under the bus once their team is no longer in power. Yet until their loss of power, their "players" were god's gift to America.

Remember, sore losers were always just "losers", but now with a bad attitude.

Skeptic, Tulsa (10/30/2009 12:36:15 PM)

Palin, President? ..... ROFL!
