Republicans Spoiling for a Boycott on Kerry-Boxer

The New York Times is reporting that Senator Inhofe (R, OK) has signaled, himself, that "he has unanimous support among the panel's minority members to boycott the session until they get more data on the legislation from U.S. EPA and the Congressional Budget Office." The full article can be read here. The article further reports that Boxer continued to dismay committee Republicans by calling them out each time she thought they were distorting the truth (as I observed in an earlier post, here.) According to the article, "Sen. George Voinovich (R-Ohio) complain[ed] yesterday that Boxer had been unfairly chiming in after any remarks that did not square with her point of view."
