Beam Me Up Dennis

Beam Me Up Dennis



Did Dennis Kucinich see a UFO? That's what Shirley MacLaine says:
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.


Of course, this IS Shirley MacLaine we're talking about here. Notoriously wacky... but quite the looker back in the day.

Meanwhile, Rosemary Palmer, one of Kucinich's primary challengers back home in Cleveland, says: "We might have a couple extraterrestrials on the staff. No, just kidding. No encounters." (An excuse for the periodic Seti@home alien detector link.)
