Is ufology making a comeback? I’ve noted lately that the most regularly updated blogs seem to be coming from that camp, and now the fever has spread to the U.S. Presidential race. In a recent Democratic candidate debate, Dennis Kucinich was asked directly (by moderator Tim Russert) whether he had seen a UFO – following on from his ‘outing’ by friend Shirley Maclaine in a new book. You can watch video of the segment here on TDG.
But Kucinich wasn’t the only one talking UFOs:
Kucinich then sought out a Washington Post reporter an upbraided her for failing to ask more substantive questions on health care policy and Iraq.
What he did not know was that a short distance away, his UFO issue was, well, taking off in an interview with Gov. Bill Richardson, who during an appearing on MSNBC with Chris Matthews demanded faster declassifying of documents pertaining to Roswell and UFO sightings.
But Richardon stopped short of saying there is a government alien coverup.
Richardson wasn’t just jumping on the bandwagon on debate night though – a few days previously he had discussed Roswell in a town hall meeting. And Republican contender Rudy Giuliani was confronted with a similar topic during one of his meet and greets.
All of which must be making the folks at the Disclosure Project very excited…
