Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich has claimed to have seen a UFO, according to Shirley MacLaine in her new book, "Sage-Ing While Age-Ing."
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."
Kucinich's campaign and congressional representatives did not return calls and e-mail asking whether the Cleveland Democrat, now in his sixth congressional term, in fact saw a UFO or if there was some other explanation for MacLaine's recollection.
MacLaine is a well-known believer of UFOs and reincarnation. And she has been close to Kucinich for decades. MacLaine is the godmother of Kucinich's daughter and attended Kucinich's 2005 Cleveland wedding to third wife, Elizabeth, who's often campaigning by his side.
MacLaine also recommended in the 1980s that Kucinich visit New Mexico spiritual adviser Chris Griscom, whom MacLaine featured in her then-best-selling book, "Dancing in the Light," describing how Griscom helped her communicate with trees. Kucinich has insisted that Griscom was not his spiritual adviser but a "teacher and a very good friend."
MacLaine, who shares Kucinich's opposition to using weapons in space, doesn't shed any more light in her book on Kucinich's close encounter, including when it happened. Her book goes on sale next month.
Yes, MUCH more logical that we are alone in the universe.

That explains everything!
ROFLMAO
Obligatory photo.
As the great Jeff Foxworthy once said
If the UFO Hotline limits you to 3 calls per week......
“Griscom helped her communicate with trees”
I have absolute faith in MacLaine’s story. I wonder what she and Kucinich were on at the time.
Having an alien anal probe would explain alot about Kookcinich’s demeanor.
This is ONE time that I believe Dennis!
“when he looked up, he saw a gigantic triangular craft, silent, and observing him.” ............ Oh No! That description fits the Carl Rove secret UAV with the brain scrambling ray.
Most all of this ideas ARE from some other planet
Sorry but how is this news? An Alien had an encounter with a UFO?
Its like saying Jeff Gordon had an encounter with the 24 car.
I really want the match up to be Dennis vs. Fred. The height difference alone would be so much fun.
