    Claim:

    “There hasn’t been any global warming .. they’re melting on Mars too.”

    — Rep. Dana Rohrabacker (R-CA), 6/26/09

    Truth:

    Ummm … we’ve heard of Governor Moonbeam. Is this the new Rep. Marvin the Martian?

    Who exactly is melting on Mars? Are they Rep. Rohrabacker’s constituents?

    If so, maybe he should suggest they move to a planet that’s more hospitable, one that actually HAS a climate — like Earth, for now, but maybe not for long if we don’t stop destroying ours.

      Umm…
      It looks like you are the one who doesn’t listen…
      Are you going to think I can agree with you when you drastically cut out everything important that Rep. Marvin actually said?
      It looks like Rep. Marvin was mocking knowing there isn’t even visible or known water on Mars!
      You are nitpicking and twisting way too many things people are saying.
      You are proving to be the joke and the one who is outrageous.
      It’s also obvious you are slanted toward the liberals and the leftists democrats seeing you have only picked Republicans to try to make fun of them.
