Der Spiegel reporter calls Inhofe ‘ridiculous’ at Copenhagen summit

Inhofe delivered -- sort of -- on his promise Thursday, flying into Copenhagen for a two-hour visit to find himself received by "a few aides and a single reporter," according to Politico.

The senator's aides quickly set up an impromptu press conference at the top of a staircase in the Bella Center, where the Republican declared that climate change is a fraud perpetuated by the "Hollywood elite" -- a claim so outlandish to the international journalists in attendance that one German reporter editorialized directly to Inhofe's face and said, "You're ridiculous."...........

Spiegel is taking a dim view of all American involvement in the summit. You don't need to read German, the photos they published tell the story:

But, if you're wondering, the headline reads "Summit Fiasco: Obama's Policy Pleases the Americans" and the rest of the article would seem to indicate that the editors are, um, disappointed in the extreme, both in our President and in us.
