I agree with several others that our side need to learn how to communicate and reach people. You don't do that by reading to them. At 1:49 or so his eyes briefly leave the book and he starts to communicate but that lasts only a few seconds and then he resumes the reading.
His background blue chart contains text and is generally unreadable. It should have been a graphic showing past climate fluctations.
While I appreciate someone speaking out on this issue I cringe at such a missed opportunity.
Actually - on the communications side - Senator Inhofe has a great website. Check out epw.senate.gov/minority. They even have a blog - and posted follow up notes to the speech. I hae to say for a United States Senator - this guy has it together. Youtube? Blog? Good website?
