Is Senator Inhofe Proud of Being Called a Holocaust Denier?

The Washington Post has a great run-down of the Conservative Political Action Conference, held last Friday.

One particularly interesting tidbit:

“Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) got the crowd cheering early in the day. “I have been called – my kids are all aware of this – dumb, crazy man, science abuser, Holocaust denier, villain of the month, hate-filled, warmonger, Neanderthal, Genghis Khan and Attila the Hun,” he announced. “And I can just tell you that I wear some of those titles proudly.”
