    Our late senior senator was always an embarrassment to the state and he publicly told the oil and gas industry to donate more to his campaign chest at every election.

    How well I remember Sen. Inhofe. I remember his bringing a snowball on the Senate floor as proof that there was no such thing as climate change. I remember his mocking Democrats for their belief. I also remember when he lost his son, Democrats were the first to reach out to him to offer their condolences. RIP
