Tulsa, OK – The oil industry gets the attention of Oklahoma U.S. Senator Jim Inhofe. Inhofe vows to fight any effort to stop off-shore drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. He says America must use its fossil fuels.

Inhofe was also critical of the Toxic Asset Relief program that bailed out the financial sector. He called fellow Republican John McCain a "closet liberal". Inhofe made the comments in a breakfast meeting with the Tulsa Metro Chamber of Commerce.
