Inhofe sure made an ass of himself the other day when he questioned the former Vice President of the United States. It makes sense now why Inhofe was so rude. He was paid by EXON to be rude and crude. LOL

Today in our local news paper the leader of ALCOA stated that ALCOA needs to do more to control its carbon emissions. GE is also leading the way in trying to control it's carbon emissions. These large corporations are not fighting the truth and are trying to do something positive to help stop global warming.

Inhofe didn't make a good impression. Every other Senator (both sides) treated the VP with respect and dignity.

The whole setup is rotten, be it TV, oil, or GM.
It doesn't get better, it gets more depressing. Any group on that list could have multiple motives, securities and investments may think she'll have a steadier economic policy than whoever ran against her in NY, I don't know. Also, the HQ's of a lot of entertainment companies are in NY, so this kind of distribution may not be repeated on a national scale
