The Truth Is Out There



Clearly we're living in odd times. Record unemployment is cheerily described as a "recovery," Democrats are running campaign ads attacking Nancy Pelosi, the mainstream media depicts tax-conscious retirees waving American flags as dangerous "extremists," and the president insists that building a mosque at Ground Zero is the "feel good" idea of the decade. Could things get any stranger?

Ohhhhhhh yeah.


In separate events this week, the United Nations announced that they were appointing an "Alien Ambassador" to greet other-worldy visitors should the need arise, and a group of retired Air Force officials went on the record to declare that UFOs are real, the government knows about them, and that the mysterious craft have - on multiple occasions - disabled U.S. nuclear missiles.

It would be easy to laugh this story off if we couldn't see and hear the testimony for ourselves. These are credible men who previously held high and respected positions in the military. Men who had, and have, something to lose by coming forward with their stories...but are doing it anyway.

After watching the testimony of these Air Force officers, our opinion is that they're sincere, truthful, and that something very odd is going on. Sure, it's hard to beli
eve...but no harder than believing that there really is a spotlessly clean (but unseen) birth certificate locked in a Hawaiian safety deposit box, or that the mad scientists in Washington really have perfected the art of creating "saved jobs"...which are totally invisible!


We have to admit that this explains a lot.

Stilt, b/n the 'believing in the unseen' and the hopey crop circle, I'm laughing so hard I have to type w/ my toes - you effing NAILED that one!

Suzy said...

Love the crop circle. LOL!!!!

Crazy times, crazy times....

Although...if the world believes in aliens...then they won't think to pick up a Bible if all the Christians leave...i.e. rapture...something to think about...

BTW if the aliens can disable nukes, why can't they unlock Obama's safety deposit box? Surely THEY wanna know what's in there, too....

I'm outing (and possibly repeating) myself here but I have believed for years that we are being visited by otherworldly or other-dimensional beings and have been for years, maybe centuries. I don't know why they would come here. Perhaps there really is a dearth of habitable planets in the cosmos and advanced civilizations are looking for a vacation spot or time share. I don't believe they are looking to conquer us. They would have done that in our stone or bronze ages - a helluva lot easier to deflect rocks than nukes. Perhaps once you get that advanced, the accumulation of knowledge outside your world, or even idle curiosity, can be worth the tremendous expenditure of energy required for interstellar travel.

Remember when candidate Jimmy Carter said he'd open the government UFO files to the public if elected president - and then didn't? I think plenty of serious-minded people acknowledge the possibility of intelligent life existing elsewhere. But I do agree and laugh along with Suzy. Couldn't they PLEASE open up that safety deposit box?

Angry Nutty Hoosier Dad- There's some fairly compelling evidence that UFOs are real, they're not from "around here," and they've been here a long time. It's that last part that we find most reassuring...no invading armies, no human prison camps, no dropping in on parties without invitations. Which makes it seem more likely that Earth may simply be a sightseeing spot for our visitors. Like tourists on a bus, passing through a "Wilds of Africa" zoo exhibit, they take a quick look while being careful to keep their windows closed. After all, earthlings bite.

I've always just thought that UFOs are just time-traveling humans from the future and that the saucers are their time machines. Much like we would hop in the van to go to the Grand Canyon, so too they want to see how things were. Lucky them.

Pete(Detroit) said...

Erik - yes, to me the 'Greys' seem like what humans forced to live in caves for 10,000 years might evolve into - especially if they're able to breed w/ our women..

I do NOT get what's up w/ all the anal probing, however...

pryorguy said...

I saw those guys on Fox, and especially enjoyed one saying that he hoped alien visitors had peaceful intent! Duh! If they dont, there wont be a thing we can do about it!!!

Dont we all lie awake at night worrying about this?

You know what BO is thinking... Future Democratic voters!...

John the Econ said...

The idea that the first "official" that an alien might meet would be an ambassador from the UN is truly disturbing. Any intelligent life observing what passes for leadership and intelligence at the UN is going to conclude that our civilization has little redeeming value and will likely vote for the nuclear option.

Humanoids: I am reluctant to tell you there are other-world space aliens living amoung you now. At my own peril, I will now tell you how we communicate with each other. Have you ever had your phone ring at home or work and hear beeping, beeping, beeping? You humanoids have been secretly programmed to believe it is an incoming FAX. Well, for us, its the motherland calling to give us instructions...only they got the wrong number...OR MORE LIKELY, one or more of us are present in your house or workplace and are vistors from a planetary system far, far away.

Now that I have outed myself, I will be called back home for reprogramming. Glad I voted early in the November election. We are here to do no evil, only good.

Klaatu barada nikto.
