#1 There's a simpler answer: It's Bush's fault.

I wonder if Haliburton has a secret Martian warming unit funded by the black portion of the DoD budget.

#4 Heard it direct from NASA several years ago, noticed the dead silence by ALL media since, it's heartwarming that somebody prestigious finaly said "Moonbats are WRONG" look for a firestorm against National Geographic, Facts Can't be countered, but by lying persistently they can be diminished or ignored.

#9 It is a mistake to assume that all of Mars is warming since we only have observable information from a few parts of the planet (the poles).

Also since it takes Mars 2 of our years to circle the sun and since the time we've been closely observing the Martian poles is only about half a dozen Martian years, it is a mistake to have substantial confidence in any warming theory.

There may be a solar cause, there may not be (which makes a sceptic on Martian warming I think).

#10 How fitting. The initial climate modelling programs were written to simulate Mars' climate, and were later "expanded" and "tweaked" to "predict" Earth climate.

#11 Female Guam Radio Host > says the volcanic haze lurking over the Marianas had made the Sun look redder than she's ever seen it, so red it scared /frightened her into making prayers, + reminded her of how the Sun is typically portrayed or depicted vv the Apocalypse or "World-Is-Ending" Hollywood-TV movies.

#12 since when do facts matter to the Globotomies?

Those stupid enough to believe the "science" behind the Global~~Cooling~~ Warming hysteria could be convinced tomorrow the world is flat were Al Gore and Alec Baldwin set forth a decree.

#13 Even if Mars is warming, it's just a coincidence.
