During a hearing of the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology Tuesday, Republican Congressman Dana Rohrabacher managed to baffle and amaze when he asked about life on Mars.
[...] "You have indicated that Mars had a, was totally different thousands of years ago," the California congressman said, addressing a panel of space science experts.
"Is it possible that there was a civilization on Mars thousands of years ago?".
[...] Kenneth Farley — NASA Mars 2020 rover project scientist — had to start off his answer by correcting Rohrabacher's question.
"So, the evidence is that Mars was different billions of years ago, not thousands of years ago," Farley said.
[...] "Would you rule that out? That — see, there are some people — well, anyway," Rohrabacher said.
Farley answered: "I would say that is extremely unlikely."

The worst part is that while Democrats call for gun control, Republicans [pewresearch.org] continue to accumulate dozens of guns per person. In general, gun ownership among Republicans is more than double that of Democrats. So your hate fantasy can never be fulfilled because all of the Democrats would be slaughtered instantly.

Republicans cannot shoot straight. Surely you have seen this with the "repeal and replace" of Obamacare? Two targets, zero score. And then there is the Republican in Florida, shooting up the AT&T trucks. Missed almost every time! I would lay odds that when the Repubs finally go apeshit and start waving their "manhood" about in public, that they will be brought down almost instantly by those liberals with fewer guns, but better fire discipline and accuracy. Try going all "second amendment solutions" with almost every bone in your shooting hand shattered, you cowardly traitor! Did you every wonder why the Confederates lost? Couldn't shoot straight. No health care. Not too bright. This is why we cannot have white supremacy, and the South WILL LOSE again. Word, bros!

Why shoot straight when you can hold a gun in each hand?
Or 1 gun and 1 bourbon.

Or 2 guns and a bourbon with a beer back? Just trying to help you out with your Confederate "Rebel Courage".

Well, they can shoot right. And when facing any left leaning person, you'll see this left leaning brings him exactly in your right.
The only safe way a left leaning person can approach a republican is by walking backwards.
