'Stone Age' Senator: No Hard Feelings

Inhofe2_2"In California, it is very much influenced by the Hollywood mentality." - U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe, (R-Oklahoma), responding to comments by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Sunday that Inhofe was living in the Stone Age because he said man-made global warming is a hoax.

Inhofe also said he admired Schwarzenegger "immensely" and predicted he would be one of the top leaders in the Republican Party. Speaking of a Hollywood mentality, Inhofe noted that his nephew, Hollywood-based Fred N. Davis III, was media consultant for Schwarzenegger's re-election campaign.
