Dennis Kucinich's UFO Comments Prove He's Nuts
Wednesday, October 31, 2007

By John Gibson

Now I know he's not going to be president, so there is an argument for not giving Dennis Kucinich a kick in the pants. But, with apologies to the congressman in advance, I'm afraid I must.

About 24 hours after Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich pronounced President Bush crazy for even thinking there might have to be war with Iran, the Ohio congressman was asked if, in fact, while visiting with Shirley MacLaine he had actually seen a UFO.

Click here to watch Kucinich's response.

Remember: This is a guy who feels free to say Bush is crazy one day and admit something the next day that many, if not most, people think proves a person is crazy.

If you've seen UFOs you probably shouldn't go around calling other people nuts. If you admit to seeing a UFO, martians, space creatures, big foot and all the rest, you are by definition on the defensive against a charge of craziness.

The congressman doesn't eat meat. Perhaps that is an explanation.

And the rest of you who have seen UFOs, please don't send angry e-mails. It's not going to make any difference -- I'll still think y'all are crazy.

Oh, and by the way, it isn't just Bush who thinks we might be forced into conflict with Iran. The French president said so publicly at his U.N. speech a couple months ago. And even Muslim states are recognizing this might be reality.

It's bad, but it's not crazy. However, now we know who actually is crazy.

That's My Word.

An ex-President admitted yesterday he saw an object flying, which changed color, which he could not identify.

By it's definition, it was unidentified, it was flying, and it was an object.  Carter saw a UFO too.

While I don't believe in them, thousands of people have witnessed them.  The Mexican, French, and several European nations have released videos of unidentified things in the air they cannot identify.  I don't consider them crazy.  And I don't consider Kucinich crazy.  He saw something flying, he didn't know what it was.  Period.  If that makes him nuts in your opinion, so be it.  But there are a lot of people in the military or NASA who have seen unidentified things in the air.  I wouldn't disrespect them by referring to them as nuts.

Kucinich is a little nuts, but not because he saw something he couldn't identify.

[Dos Equis]

I think most people probably use the term UFOs to refer to alien spacecraft.  That makes Kucinich a nut.

Funny how I missed your thread saying Reagan was Nuts...
""I was in a plane last week when I looked out the window and saw this white light. It was zigzagging around.  I went up to the pilot and said, "Have you ever seen anything like that?" He was shocked and he said, "Nope." And I said to him: "Let's follow it!" We followed it for several minutes. It was a bright white light. We followed it to Bakersfield, and all of a sudden to our utter amazement it went straight up into the heavens.  When I got off the plane I told Nancy all about it."--Reagan

Reagan went on several times to talk of alien threats from other worlds...

If you're going to proclaim someone nuts over their personal experiences, the least you can do is review some compelling evidence.

Watch this documentary, you won't regret it, it's the best case I've seen yet and this is a well done examination of it...

I still think there's better reasons to call him nuts.

It's so hard to take the guy seriously

It's wrong on so many levels, but I can't get past the fact he looks a little like Hitler.

There are far better reasons a rightwinger has to call him nuts; jumping on the ufo story like it's their ah-ha moment for Dennis...  Like the guy ever had a shot in hell before this.  Hell, he probably got a jump after the UFO statement.

I will check out the video, but I fail to see what my failure to create a thread poking fun at a deceased Ronald Reagan has to with a looney bird that's currently running for president.  The fact Reagan apparently once talked about strange lights or alien invasions doesn't make Kucinich any less of a nut.  But hey Bill Cosby really likes the guy.   

And I'm not the only one calling him nuts.  John Gibson thinks so too.   

[Nordic Superman]

What I find more disturbing is that he doesn't eat me!

A president that doesn't eat meat? WTF? Is this a joke?

but does it make Reagan a nut?

John Gibson haha... a guy that thinks everyone on the left is nuts... monster credibility...

If he was concerned about alien invasions, then yes.  But what does that have to do with Kucinich? 

John Gibson may or may not lack credibility, but he's right about Kucinich.

It would have been nuts of you to say otherwise... Just got you on the record as saying Reagan was a nut.  I'll gladly concede Kucinich for that quote

The statement carries no weight from Gibson since he thinks most dems are nuts.

and in the end, I don't believe it's nuts to witness something unworldly...  It's really more nuts to shut yourmind off from everything that you consider real...  It's so... "the world is flat and young" middle ages establishment

[Eyeball Chambers]

lol.  Oh is this another "gotcha" moment?  lol.  Reagan was a nut if he was worried about alien invasions.  There.  I said it again.  lol . . . .

Gibson's opinion that Kucinich is a nut doesn't need to carry any weight.  That said, he's right:  anyone running for president who claims to have seen an alien spaceship is a nut.

yes, gotcha...  needless to say, the price of Kucinich's good name was a small one to pay

[Hugo Chavez]

come to think of it, it's a dem win win on this one...  The right spent a lot of time downing a guy who has no chances anyway and they went out on a limb that drags Reagan down with... Kucinich!?!?  LOL big time...

I don't think a 257 word essay by Gibson is a "lot of time" and he isn't "the right."  He's just a commentator. 

And he's right.

I was refering to the greater rightwing talk machine... There was a pretty decent amount of time by all spent on him.  Any time spent on someone who has no chances is well... kind of funny.

There are a number of candidates who have no chance of winning, including Kucinich, Ron Paul, McCain, etc.  If any one of them says something nutty, we should talk about it . . . and laugh at them.

It's politics... you just sacked Reagan to bring down Kucinich!  Priceless

Not that there's anything wrong being a vegetarian.     He gives vegetarians a bad name. 

[Decker]

He saw something he couldn't identify flying in the air, hence the unidentified flying object statement.

But wait, Beach Bum says that that means flying saucer b/c that's what the majority believes it to mean.

Not me.  "Unidentified flying object" means unidentified flying object...not ET or Darth Vader. 

But this is how the right wing hit machine works--take any a statement (especially one like this) and just run with it for as far as you can go.

Frankly, I'm more worried about Guiliani's almost congenital lying.  After all, he has a great chance of becoming the republican nominee (while Kucinich is a footnote on the dem side) and he cannot stop spouting lies.

He is a serial liar--from his role in 9/11 to his relationship with Bernard (made guy) Kerik, to his recent bald-faced lies about universal care in England. 

This guy is dangerous and not in the good way.

As for Kucinich, I would wager that he's as rational as any of us.

[240 is Back]

Beach Bum,

Shame on you for disrespecting Ronald Reagan like this.

They used to have a word for people that didn't like Reagan.

Would U like to buy a vowel, Beach Bum?

Yes I believe the term UFO has denotative and connotative meanings.  And yes I think when most people use the term UFO they are using its connotative meaning (i.e., alien spacecraft). 

I'm only half joking about Kucinich.  He could have very well have been referring to an "unidentified flying object" and not an alien spaceship, but I won't give him the benefit of the doubt.     He's a screwball.   

Even if he is as sane as the rest of us, he's not very smart.  If you are running for president you don't tell the media you have seen a UFO. 

[240 is Back]

If you are running for president you don't tell the media you have seen a UFO. 

A woman wrote about it in a book, and mentioned him.  Russert asked him about the quote from the woman.

Should he have lied to the media?  Should he have dodged the Q?  He saw something in the sky that he could not identify.  It's happened to two of our former presidents.  I guess they're nuts too, huh?  Maybe the whole world is nuts except you, huh BB?
