Although I had to hold my nose at FreeRepublic just now...

It was nice to see they were also cheering at the success of the Mars mission. Maybe there's a chance we can all get along someday?


Ok, back to reality...

[Norquist Nemesis]

1. LOL

They're cheering for different reasons though. More land to rape, rob, and pillage I presume.

[mot78]

4. Yeah

and then they'll try a massive settlement of Mars so they can grab more electoral votes. They already have red states, so why not a "Red Planet" ;)

[economic justice]

10. That is FUNNY!

:)

[rasputin1952]

11. LOL...

very witty, "Red Planet".

BTW: Red was the color preferred by communists.

20. I can see it now, Puerto Rico and Washington DC can't be states...

But mars can. They will get 2 Senators and 1 Congressman since their population will be zero. And the GOP will run for all three seats and get the supreme court to declare them the winners. Oh god that would be hillarious.

2. We are Star-bellied Sneetches

and they are plain-bellies. We will ever be at odds.

Just kidding. It's a good sign, in the end we are all but human.

[maggrwaggr]

5. uh ... no. Many are not human

sorry, but that's how I see it.

[liberalhistorian]

3. Of course!

To them, that's the good ol' American way!

[kalian]

6. They're cheering.....

because "Spirit" is an American explorer... The Brits apparently
lost Beagle 2 and thus it was up to the States to come out on top.

You know... "USA! USA!"... :eyes: Pretty friggin lame if you ask me.

[Norquist Nemesis]

8. They're cheering

because now they can go back to their home planet. The mother ship is waiting. *wink*

[RushIsRot]

18. I don't want them on the Mother Ship from which I fell!

Have a little sympathy! PLEASE!

[Powerlock]

7. What will happen if they find signs of life?

Won't the religious nuts go bonkers? That seriously contradicts religious text (christian, jewish, and muslim) correct?

[kalian]

12. I hope they send Robertson over there...without a space suit

:evilgrin:

[rasputin1952]

13. Not really...

The religions that prosper on this planet, are based on this planet.

One cannot show me anywhere in the Bible, where there is mention of 'no life anywhere else'.

I know nothing of the Koran, and very little of other religious literature. But I know of nothing that says that the earth is the only place with life. However, the earth is mentioned quite often as being a place of evil life, living beside virtuous life.

9. I hope I don't get flamed for saying this but...I came to learn

that among those freaks there are a few who are quite knowledgeable about astronomy and science. Some threads are even quite interesting!....

[DrWeird]

14. That's where Saddam hid WMDs.

And the proof he flew those jets on 9-11.

[caledesi]

15. We were at least civil to one another beofre...

Newt
and Rush Limbaugh. (that's why I despise him so much. He has done more to alienate the parties (us against them) than any other person.
I hope oxyRush goes to jail. I mean it.

he is such a hypocrite. He denounced Roy Black when he was supoorting Will Kennedy...my, how things have changed.

[demgrrrll]

17. That is interesting. I wonder if there are any old quotes available

May he get what he deserves.

[wtmusic]

16. rotflmao, that photo in your sig

is the best I've seen in a long time! :D

[demgrrrll]

19. This is so sweet. Apparently Rush said on air that the reason that

the Kennedy family hired Black was because they knew he
was guilty. Bwahahhhhaaaa. <http://babelogue.citypages.com:8080/amadzine/2003/12/17>
