NASA's Mars News Is Not Life, But Perchlorate
leighklotz writes "In an update to the little green men story of not-life-on-Mars, NASA has twittered: 'The buzz this weekend was due to an interesting soil chemistry finding, still preliminary, but now avail here:' where 'here' is NASA Spacecraft Analyzing Martian Soil Data. The exciting bit: 'Within the last month, two samples have been analyzed by the Wet Chemistry Lab of the spacecraft's Microscopy, Electrochemistry, and Conductivity Analyzer, or MECA, suggesting one of the soil constituents may be perchlorate, a highly oxidizing substance.' Also, 'NASA will hold a media teleconference on Tuesday, Aug. 5, at 2 p.m. EDT, to discuss these recent science activities.'"
think about kevin dawson sucking on a necrotic dog penis.
Hmmm, I wonder what happened at the White house meeting ? (would NASA really have a meeting at the White house to discuss Perchlorate?) Maybe Bush told Nasa to bury the life on Mars story, as martians aren't in his bible.
As I said in the previous thread, the reason they had to brief the Bushman is that this proves, beyond any un-reasonable doubt, and in this case all doubt was obviously unreasonable, that Saddam had WMDs. Saddam, being accustomed to the sandy environments, obviously hid them on Mars, and this is irrefutable proof. I mean, solid rocket fuel! It's not like you can make liquid rocket fuel in the desert! That's why they call it a desert, duh!
I have information from lowly placed, and utterly reliable (at least compared to the highly placed) sources that given the newly discovered WMDs on Mars, the Bushman and his trigger happy friends are now well along with their plans to bomb Ulan Bator. A city with such a weird name obviously has to be conspiring with the Axis of Evildoers, currently comprised of North Korea, Iran, Syria and Mars. Since it has such a weird name it can't actually be on the Axis it self, so, along with Belgium it has been placed on the Coalition of the Evil Wishers, the people who supply the Axis of Evildoers with transportation to Mars and Waffles for their troops of Evilmongers.
Stupid is the same as intellectually impaired, the latter just sounds nicer to those too stupid to understand it.
PC bullshitting and euphemisms are generally for the stupid. Feelgoodwords to hide the real meaning and make people think you did something against prejudice when all you did was dump some bullshit on it, hoping that what nobody sees goes away.
We used to have a Bill of Rights. Now, with the rights gone, all we have left is the bill.
What shit head marked this as off topic ? An evangelical nutter perhaps ?
