There is a sense of urgency at Sen. Barack Obama's headquarters in a steel-and-glass office tower in downtown Chicago. The Iowa caucuses, a must win, are eight weeks away. The atmosphere is collegiate and familial--but all business. And it had better be. Way down in the national polls, Obama does not have much time to change the dynamics of the race. Last week, his wife, Michelle, spent a long day in a conference room, calling Iowans one at a time for long chats. She talked about faith issues with a woman in Blackhawk County for 17 minutes, and smiled at what she concluded was a sale made. In an office around the corner, the senator sat with NEWSWEEK's Howard Fineman and Richard Wolffe, amping up his new willingness to criticize Democratic front runner Sen. Hillary Clinton. Excerpts:

this is the excerpt from the article:

Where are you on UFOs?
I have not seen any signs of alien life forms. I leave this between [Rep.] Dennis [Kucinich] and Rudy Giuliani. I'm sure they would have very different approaches to aliens, though. Dennis is much more welcoming.

They would get driver's licenses.
They would get driver's licenses, exactly. Rudy: ready to shoot them down.

**********************
1. how do you go from an unidentified flying object to believing in alien life forms?

2. where does he say dennis kucinich would issue licenses (and does that comment even make sense)?

Kucinich Will Impeach Cheney

Rep. Dennis Kucinich introduced H.Res. 333 in April to impeach Vice President Cheney for his pre-war lies about Iraq and for threatening an invasion of Iran. And thanks to your heroic grassroots efforts, there are 21 co-sponsors.

Speaker Pelosi blocked Judiciary Committee hearings on the bill, but Rep. Kucinich will force a floor vote on Tuesday using his right of personal privilege.

Kucinich's courageous act will put members of the House on record. Are they going to fulfill their oath of office to "defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic"? Or will they support a Vice President whose lies about Iraq cost the lives of nearly 4,000 Americans and possibly $2.4 trillion in our tax dollars - and whose lies about Iran threaten to start World War III?

Call your Representative (not Senators) and tell them to support Kucinich's resolution to impeach Dick Cheney, H.Res. 333:
800-828-0498, 800-862-5530, 800-833-6354

This is obviously a false headline. Obama would hide from making any comments until days later and then claim he owuld have made the opposite comment, had he not been hiding from the original.

What's more ridiculous -- asking or suggesting such a stupid question? Or, reporting it - with huge headlines to boot?

Arianna, you've hit a new low.

Attention HuffPost: Why is this news? Now you realize that because you ran this we're going to get endless stupid Star Trek and other variations on alien jokes. These are written by comedy writer wannabes at home who can't understand how the hell anybody could be paid ALL THAT MONEY to write jokes for Stewart, Leno and the rest when they of course could do it for almost nothing. Which probably explains why they're poor unknowns at home.

Why isn't anyone at Huff covering the Kucinich Impeachment bill?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Why isn't Kucinich coming in number one in the DFA poll front pack news.

No, instead you put in a snide little side comment about kucinich and space aliens. So now Huff is going along with the MSM moonbeaming of the the most mainstream candidate.

WTF? Do you all want a fascist dictatorship in the USA or what?!?!?!?

Inexperienced Washington D.C. policy politicians who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones ?

Democrats don't care about illegal immigrants or "helping" them with drivers licenses.

This is another way they obfuscate the truth by packaging it as something else.

All they care about is illegal immigrant Votes.

No dice.

Kucinich statement that he's seen UFOs doesn't bother me in the least. A lot of sane people have reported this. Personally, I would love to see one. I think it would be horribly backwards to believe that, out of all the planets and all the galaxies, we are the only one inhabited. I can no longer say "by intelligent life form" because I truly believe we have lost that distinction at this point. Those on other planets are probably sitting in a betting parlor taking odds on how long it's going to take us to blow ourselves out of existence!

Giuliani would move in to the saucer while getting a divorce from his cousin, then marry one of the cute green ones and get the saucer admitted to NATO whilel teaching the aliens how to bulge their eyes out properly

Haha, very funny.

Stop trying to get laughs on Kucinich's expense.

If you can't live up to his progressive ideals, ddon't knock them, either!

Good one, Barak. Maybe you should try to hire some of Letterman's writers while they're on strike because it gets you attention when you joke about the competition. But what about Clinton? What would Hillary do?
