Dave Roberts on The Gristmill took it apart quite well here. Inhofe trotts out many of the standards:

- There is no consensus about it
- Peiser found plenty of science bucking the IPCC view

"You have your science, I have mine" or something similar he says in there. Unfortunately, reality is not a matter of unsupportable opinion!
