Kucinich: "I Did" See A UFO...

At last night's debate between Democratic presidential candidates in Philadelphia, NBC's Tim Russert asked a flustered Cleveland Democratic Rep. Dennis Kucinich whether he'd seen a UFO.

Here's a transcript and YouTube video of their exchange:

RUSSERT: Shirley MacLaine writes in her new book that you sighted a UFO over her home in Washington state, that you found the encounter extremely moving, that it was a triangular craft, silent and hovering, that you felt a connection to your heart and heard directions in your mind. Now, did you see a UFO?

KUCINICH: Uh, I did. And the rest of the account. It was an unidentified flying object, OK? It's like, it's unidentified. I saw something. Now, to answer your question. I'm moving my, and I'm also going to move my campaign office to Roswell, New Mexico, and another one in Exeter, New Hampshire, OK? And also, you have to keep in mind that Jimmy Carter saw a UFO, and also that more people in this country have seen UFOs than I think approve of George Bush's presidency.

The question he should have asked:

"At the time, were you using, or have you ever used illegal psychoactive drugs, such as Marijuana?"

Shame on HuffPo for playing into this media slam on Dennis.

They never let him talk, but they are happy to make fun of him and ask him insulting questions.

How rude.

He is the only truth teller on the stage.

For all you folks that believe in other worldly UFO's, Don't you realize that on any given night there are 100's of large telescopes with people with Phd's using them, photographing celestrial objects along with many 1000's of amatures doing the same thing. But with all these UFO's around, none of these folks has ever be able to take a clear photo of one. If they did they would be rich, whats stopping them, the fact that they don't exist.

I just wish Carl Sagan was still alive to clear up this BS.

UFO's are about selling BS and lies to the gullible public and making lots of money from it.

Scully!

By the way, Kucinich also sees a pretty chick every night, and better still, gets to bang a pretty chick every night if he can still get it up.

The funny thing is...

UFO's are based more in reality than jesus and god which are pure fantasy.

UFOs are Unidentified Flying Objects.
Not necessarily a space craft from another planet.
Just something in the sky flying that is unidentified.

I am personally fed up with poloticians who have some delusional relationship whith their special imaginary friend.

Seriously the human race is so pathetic believing in the mythological crap of religion in the 21st century.

The only way we will progress as a positive society is to move past the delusion of religion.

Religion is the passive manifestation of a mental disorder. Possibly similar to OCD.

Religion is an open doorway to mental illness that will go untreated. Because as a society we do not have enough people standing up to that delusional fantasy garbage. And calling what it is... Bullshit.

Dennis Kuchinich is saying all the right things for me and as a bonus his wife is smoking hot, gonna make a great first lady. I just contributed to his campaign and if he gets the nomination he's got my vote. Him or Edwards, anyone else and I go third party. If its HRC I'll friggin vote rebuttlicken.

[Gumby123]

Kucinich on tape - Yesss, precious I dids sees a UFO! 'twasss bright an's shiny like you precious!

[BobHanssen]

Is his wife a space alien? 'Cause she sure is out of this world.

[FreedomCorpse]

Is Tim Russert a journalist? Sarkozy handled his 'interview' on 60 minutes appropriately, so did Dennis

[UltraClassic]

And this guy say's GW has mental issues?

You got to love it!

[23000Days]

Did anyone notice the drooling, flushed leer on Russert's face when he asked Dennis the question?
It was like an animal who had been anxiously waiting for the kill!
WHAT A SICK NEOCON BASTARD!!
I doubt that Dennis was hurt by it, but Russert lost any shred of credibility he may have once had!

[amanda85]

Plenty of absolutely credible people have seen something in the sky that defies a logical explanation. That doesn't necessarily mean little green men, just something we can't explain. Are they all insane?

Kucinich is the ONLY American politician who has gained the respect of progressives abroad and guess what, the MSM is trying to destroy him, huffpo being an accomplice to that. Shame.

[GhostintheMachine]

The fact that he was at Shirley mclaines house and saw a UFO makes me wonder. And he said the President may have mental issues?

[SunshineDaydream]

was he flustered, or shocked that this question was asked at the end of a presidential debate?
