Jennings Explores ABCs of UFOs

Flying saucers and strange beings who have visited Earth aren't the typical topics reported by Peter Jennings, anchor of ABC's "World News Tonight." Jennings, whose new two-hour special tackles the subject of UFOs, admits he and his production team began the project with doubts and a dose of curiosity.

"We have a lot of skeptics -- I am very skeptical -- but we seriously investigated something a lot of people are serious about," he said. "And when we come to the end, this is wonderfully interesting.

"More than 80 million Americans believe intelligent beings from somewhere else have come here," he said. "Forty million believe they have seen UFOs, so this is of deep interest to people."

Why doesn't he just study the laws of physics? That woud pretty much rule out a visit from some other solar system.

[nanomid]

sooo...we can only give 'use' to space by filling it up with ugly bags of mostly water...hmmm...?

[Cold Heat]

Why doesn't he just study the laws of physics?

We do not yet know all the laws of physics, time and space.

We get better at it, but have yet to crack many mysteries.

Perhaps we will one day. Those stars are out there for a reason.

[Casloy]

Perhaps we will one day. Those stars are out there for a reason.

Well, now that damn near everyone has a video camer how come we never see footage of a aliens or their aircraft? I mean, a big meteor will fly over and 2 or 3 people will get video of it. How come we never get film of flying saucers? Just curious.

[Quix]

Your forum violating insult/assault is read and noted.

Perhaps you could find a duck to chase somewhere.

Or perhaps a kite to fly.

[Quix]

Evidently you have joined a number of others who are utterly convinced in our or even their intellectual skills and accomplishments in knowing about all there is to know about such matters.

May you enjoy your smugness while it lasts.

[Quix]

This has been explained ad nauseum.

Check out the DVD from the DISCLOSURE PROJECT of Dr Stephen Greer's.

There's a lot more waiting in the wings--for Congressional immunity. Interestingly, the puppet master controlled Senators have not managed to come up with congressional immunity yet. I wonder why.

On the one hand--it's only swamp gas.

But they'll sock you away to Leavenworth for talking about the swamp gas--and certainly for leaking government videos of it.

I posted this on the other similar thread:


I have written a book about the origin of UFOs, and I have a publisher. But I am bogged down by all the permissions that I have to obtain to use all the information and pictures. If any Freepers know their way around this process, I would appreciate the assistance. I have already bought the book, "Getting Permission".

If any of you want a shortcut to understanding the phenomenon, I would recommend the book "Intercept UFO" by Renato Vesco. Folks on the old ArtBellFans discussion list will remember the raging debates we had surrounding this material. Vesco's book is extremely difficult to obtain. Or you can help me get my book out...

Bringing back a memory from 1997 with one of the early WEENIES OF THE WEEK.

Weenie of the Week

Free Republic
11/14/97 Doug from Upland

NOTE: This is the fourth installment of WEENIE OF THE WEEK for FreeRepublic. We have been proud to honor Robert Bennett, Susan Webber Wright and Loretta Sanchez as previous Weenies. Each week we will choose an appropriate "WEENIE OF THE WEEK." Although the choice is the author's, your e-mail suggestions are welcome.

"WEENIE OF THE WEEK"

In the late 1940's there were strange lights and strange happenings in the skies over Roswell, New Mexico. Many people believe that aliens crash landed their craft and died here on earth. For the first time, we are able to reveal that a small amount of the alien equivalent of human male seminal fluid was harvested from one alien shortly before he died. Several years later it was implanted in a human female, and the result was an experiment gone terribly wrong. The result was something which looked somewhat human. It had little hair, eyes close together, drool constantly coming out of the side of its mouth, hands waving wildly, and head moving back and forth with a disgusting smirk. Now approximately 43 earth years of age, this despicable character is the WEENIE OF THE WEEK. His name is Creekoway Yakbaht. Oh, I'm sorry. You know him better by his earth name, Chester James Carville.

Writing this week for "Salon I," Chester was whining about those people who would have the audacity to look into the background of political consultants. He apparently thinks such inquiry is patently unfair. Poor Carville has been ..."troubled by the increased scrutiny of consultants' private lives." Oh, really. Chester further contends that his private life has no effect on the client who pays his salary.

May we please have the clarity to call Carville exactly what he is --- a political hitman. What is his job? If someone comes forward to reveal damaging information about William Blythe Clinton (I have chosen to omit Jefferson from the name), his job is to attack the messenger to try to discredit the message. Sharline Wilson testified before the Saline County grand jury that she provided cocaine to the governor of the state of Arkansas. He was so loaded one night that he "slid down the wall and fell into the garbage can." To attack this kind of messenger was a snap. She was a drug dealer. Anything she had to say about Clinton had no validity. Congressman Dan Burton shot a watermelon in his back yard which represented the head of Vince Foster as Burton was trying to analyze what really happened to poor Foster. So, of course, Burton is a right wing whacko. Despite the fact that he had a copy of the wire transfer in which the Arkansas Development Finance Authority laundered almost $50 million offshore to the Cayman Islands, we can't trust anything he says. Forget the wire transfer and other evidence. Destroy the messenger to destroy the message. And he has so far been successful. There are enough gullible people who are guided by their own agendas, who have no character of their own, who are on the public dole and who are just plain too stupid to understand what is happening. The Democratic Party thrives on dependent, helpless, stupid and foolish people.

Several years ago, a real hero named Jean Lewis blew the whistle at the RTC on the fraud at Madison Guaranty. Clinton cronies illegally seized information from her computer in which Lewis had made some unkind, albeit true, remarks about Clinton. Despite the fact that she testified under oath, she could not be trusted to tell the truth. Unlike those who have covered Clinton's posterior, Lewis did not repeat the mantra of "I have no direct recollection of that." She was forthcoming and remembered everything.

The most vicious attacks have been on Paula Jones. They had to be because she had the potential for incredible damage. How could Clinton survive if people actually learned the truth that he was a womanizing, pants-dropping, degenerate pervert. Even the soccer moms might be upset by that. Maybe not. Had he not been the governor, Jones could have called the police and had the man arrested for indecent exposure. That's exactly what it was. Although purposefully mischaracterized by feminist defenders as a simple offer and refusal which was not repeated, the spin cannot lessen the perversity of what happened. What if Pete Wilson or George Pataki had done what Clinton did? The press and women's groups would have gone ballistic. And they should have. Who could Paula tell? She couldn't tell the police because they were in on it. So slimebag Chester attacks her reputation. He paints a picture of Jones as trailer trash chasing a twenty dollar bill. Why didn't feminists have a hissy fit over that one?

So Cheekoway Yakbaht, WEENIE OF THE WEEK, drag a Kradonian delfoy through the moons of Meepzorb and you never know what you'll find. We know that you'll find a half-alien creature described by his earthling wife as "serpent head."

May you enjoy your smugness while it lasts.

And may you enjoy your tin foil hat, which apparently doesn't protect you from believing there is some vast conspiracy out there to keep people like you from knowing the truth about spacemen. If you want to believe we are being visited by people from outer space, go for it, but please lose the theory that the only reason we don't have the evidence is because the government is keeping it a secret. Apparently you know little about space travel and even less about our goverment's ability to keeps secrets.

[Quix]

I had a TOP SECRET CRYPTO type clearance.

I think I know a little bit about the government's secret keeping.

I think you are 10's of thousands of pages short of sufficient awareness to carry this conversation much further at all.

Nice try, though.

[Casloy]

Interestingly, the puppet master controlled Senators have not managed to come up with congressional immunity yet. I wonder why.

Care to share with us who this PUPPET MASTER is? Or is this only something those of you who used to have TOPS SECRET CRYPTO clearance are privy to?

[Casloy]

I had a TOP SECRET CRYPTO type clearance.

By the way, TOP SECRET CRYPTO doesn't get you access to the alien bodies in the basement of Langley. For that you need TOP SECRET/SCI "Space Creature Information"

[Casloy]

I want to thank you for the post. Occasionally, a thread gets going that brings out the best in Freeper wit and humor. This was on such thread. I haven't laughed this hard in weeks.

[Quix]

I had a fantasy that you'd understand every word in my last post. So much for fantasies!

Well, you'd certainly be the expert on fantasies.

[dinodino]

Golly, a crypto clearance? Wow! You MUST have worked with the aliens!

Next you'll be bragging about a Q clearance...

[SengirV]

No, I'm saying that people who dismiss things they can't comprehend are like Charles H. Duell, Commissioner, U.S. Office of Patents, 1899 - "Everything that can be invented has been invented."

Jeepers! That makes you part of the cabal! And you're most likely feeding the rest of us disinformation!
