Kucinich saw UFO

Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich claimed to have seen a UFO, according to actresss Shirley MacLaine in her new book, Sage-Ing While Age-Ing, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Apparently, Kucinich "had a close sighting over my home in Graham, Washington, when I lived there," the actress, a close Kucinich friend, wrote. "Dennis found his encounter extremely moving. The smell of roses drew him out to my balcony where, when he looked up, he saw a gigantic triangular craft, silent, and observing him. It hovered, soundless, for 10 minutes or so, and sped away with a speed he couldn't comprehend. He said he felt a connection in his heart and heard directions in his mind."

The Kucinich campaign did not return the newspaper's phone calls asking for comment. MacLaine's book goes on sale next month.

1. Kucinich's embrace of woo-woo thinking is well-established
By his own assertions, no less.

This story, if true, is yet another reason why he is unelectable.

Sorry Kooch-fans, but that's really the essence of the matter.

2. The UFO part doesn't bother me
Hanging out with Shirley MacLaine? That's a different story!

3. I confess that the UFO part does trouble me more than a little
A rose-scented hyperdrive?

"Mr. Kucinich, charge the tulip cannons and fire a volley of daffodil torpedos!"

5. Dude... it's Shirley!
I mean, I'm not saying he's not a woo woo... but c'mon... consider the source!

6. Shirley you jest?
Clearly the aliens have zapped you with their mind-altering chrysanthemum ray.

Now, the only question is when. You have been acting kind of strange ever since, well, ever since...

Hmm...

9. Shirley it was!
You're one of those pod-people. I confess that I've long suspected as much.

10. That footage is backwards
Those aren't fighter jets; they're coverup-planes owned by our secret reptile masters. Reverse the video and you'll see clearly that they're zipping around the sky, vacuuming up those pesky chem-trails, to create the illusion that they're not trying to control us.

12. He said "he felt a connection in his heart and heard directions in his mind."
If Dennis is hearing voices (directions) in his head and hanging with Shirley MacLaine, then he is even more woo-woo than I suspected.

I'll give him credit for being entertaining though.

14. Key phrase there: "according to actresss Shirley MacLaine'
and also

"in her new book"

In *my* book, Shirley MacLaine has a credibility factor of zero, and has for years. Nutcase.

Ergo, claim without merit. Dismissed!


OMG, I read past the "according to" part...

"a gigantic triangular craft, silent, and observing him"

"heard directions in his mind"


:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Shirl, baby, stop, you're killing me!
