Gerald Ford, RINO harbinger, has also expressed fascination with UFOs. Fascination with UFOs is arguably the only reason why Dennis Kucinich, Ron Paul, and Mike Gravel have run for President.
There are several reasons why both right thinking people and liberal moonbats have good reason to study UFOs and the government reaction to them. To moonbats, extraterrestrials make an excellent excuse to attack anthropocentrism, and by their conception Christianity. Moonbats are also fascinated with advanced weapons of mass destruction, as those would make the body politic far easier to control.
To conservatives, UFOs represent complete lack of transparency on the government’s part, given that the government refuses to give proper explanations for the 1942 Battle of L.A. (even though extraterrestrials are likely not responsible for those events).
1942 Battle of L.A is extremely overhyped. It wasn’t anything more than a bunch o jittery AA batteries shooting at nothing.
My grandfather was an air raid warden at the time and the only thing remarkable was that a piece of shrapnel fell close enough to where he could pick it.
