| In previous editions of the 'Inhofe 400,' we found some skeptics who were completely unqualified and others who are qualified but not actually skeptical. Today's 'skeptic' falls into the latter category. He is meteorologist George Waldenberger.

On his blog, Chris says this about global warming:My biggest argument against putting the primary blame on humans for climate change is that it completely tak ... |

In response to this list, I recently blogged that many of those listed lacked qualifications (see also here). I'm betting that Sen. Inhofe doesn't want you to actually read the list of skeptics, but just read the headline and accept their conclusion. Here at Grist, however, we don't do what the good senator wants us ... |
