Obama, phone home
And now for something completely different.
The Extraterrestrial Phenomenon Political Action Committee has called on President-Elect Barack Obama to "end the six-decade truth embargo regarding an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race."
The Maryland group wants the incoming president to insist on a "full
briefing from military services and intelligence agencies regarding
what they know" and to open congressional hearings "to take testimony
from scores of government witnesses who have already come forward with
extraordinary evidence and are prepared to testify under oath."
The campaigners think Mr. Obama could lend a sympathetic ear to
their plea for other-worldly transparency because of two people: John Podesta and New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson.
Mr. Podesta – former chief of staff in the Clinton White House and now
chief of Mr. Obama's transition team – once led a project to declassify
800 million pages of intelligence documents. Mr. Richardson, who has
contributed to a book on UFO sightings within his state, might also
provide some sway.
Stephen Bassett, director of "X-PPAC," hopes to have 40,000 signatures from supporters ready for Mr. Obama by Inauguration Day.
"The truth embargo is now at the end of the line. The release of
documents in Britain and France has put huge pressure on the U.S. It
makes the government here look pretty stupid," he told the Sunday Daily
Telegraph.
"I think we are seeing the Democrats moving towards disclosure. John
Podesta has outed himself as an enthusiast. He thinks the American
public can handle the truth. Bill Richardson thinks there was a
cover-up."
