Alec Baldwin: James Inhofe, Anti-EPA Oklahoma GOP Senator, Is An 'Oil Whore'
Actor Alec Baldwin took to his Twitter page over the weekend to unload on Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), repeatedly referring to the notorious anti-EPA legislator as an "oil whore."
During an environmentally focused diatribe against BP and fossil fuel dependence, Baldwin launched the following jab at Inhofe. The senator is a noted climate change denier who has also recently drew the ire of Robert F. Kennedy Jr, who attacked the senator as "big oil's top call girl" earlier this month.

The EPA later confirmed this comment to The Hill.
Apart from his controversial statements about climate change and the EPA's environmental regulations, Inhofe was also among those responsible for working to block a measure to raise BP's liability cap from $75 million to $10 billion in the wake of the massive 2010 Gulf oil spill.
