Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.) on Tuesday pressed NASA on whether ancient civilizations existed on Mars.

Rohrabacher asked a panel of space experts testifying before the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology if civilizations could have existed on Mars thousands of years ago.

I thought Rohrabacher had more sense than that. Disappointing, very disappointing.

Well, there were!

They existed on these martians island, but all the martians moved to one side of the island and they tipped over, causing the civilizations to be lost forever.

Sad.

2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

Man, next thing you know someone in congress will think Guam will capsize if we add anymore Marines on the island.

The correct answer to her question is , yes there is a definite possibility that an ancient civilization existed on Mars and we'll need about $2Trillion to further investigate it.

Well you may not be in the know on this, but there was a compelling documentary on this topic proving definitively that there is life on Mars.....
