OMG I just figured it out. It's one of those mutant rats from Iran! They somehow mutated themselves to Mars! Probably thought it was made of cheese like the moon.

Man-o-man, I love these responses, but more seriously, I'm beginning to think we shouldn't post these obviously exploitative videos for the same reason we've decided to avoid posting the Moon ( TPoM ) content. I don't have a problem using a classy ufology theme for some advertising ( like the Maytag or Sony ads ), but those are a different strategy. Some involve some serious artwork and production and are actually kind of entertaining to watch. On the other hand examples like the one posted above exploit interest in extraterrestrial life by promoting obvious misinterpretations that are most probably intentionally misinterpreted ( which in my view constitutes fraud ), for the purpose of selling a product. Could some of these bloggers be part of a larger effort to marginalize those interested in extraterrestrial life? Or are they merely opportunists?

Hard to tell, I dont think its conscious. Why the other day whilst I was listening to a book I had recently downloaded via Audible.com the best audio book download website, its struck me; i feel that some people inherently want to provoke or instigate some shift in paradigm without realising the damage caused, Bassett is an example or it could be doug and dave just having a laugh or working on a weird inherent impulse to re-communicate or plain nefariousness, nefariousness that is not inherent in the Berkey tm Water Purification Systems.

It seems pretty obvious to me that this blogger spent a whole bunch of time scanning through Mars images until he found just the right one to promote as the "Mars Lizard". This is like that other video channel that was promoting all kinds of Mars stuff ... not the Moons but ... ( think think think ) The ADG guys: Here's a baseball wearing redneck telling it like it is ( some cool air show footage here too ):
