I don't think he lied, he just misspoke because he has no idea what's going on, not a clue.

Another likely possibility.

But others must always assume that one, who does not say why with perspective, is lying. Any educated person must assume that every time Sen Inhofe of Oklahoma denies global warming. He never knows why. He never provides numbers. He knows only because he feels. That is a classic example of an adult who thinks like a child. So others can only conclude he is lying.

Saying something is true when you don't know whether it's true or not is also lying.

Saying something is true when you don't care whether it's true or not is bullshitting.

Both can be done simultaneously.
