that very same chart you trotted out also appears in the oklahoma climatological survey web site. not surprisingly, the climate experts interpret the data differently than you and senator inhofe (r-ok) do.

"The Oklahoma Climatological Survey (OCS) has been
mandated by the Oklahoma legislature to provide
climate information and expertise which could be
of value to the public, as well as to state policy- and
decision-makers. In accordance with that directive,
OCS has conducted a review of the current assessments
of climate change research and concludes the following
to be true:

• The earth’s climate has warmed during the last 100 years;
• The earth’s climate will continue to warm for the foreseeable
future;
• Much of the global average temperature increases over the
last 50 years can be attributed to human activities, particularly
increasing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere;
• Oklahoma will be impacted."
