Shirley MacLaine: I Believe In UFOs More Than Ever, Support Kucinich

This morning on "Today" Shirley MacLaine opened up about seeing a UFO "buzzing around the Capitol and the White House" when she was 18-years-old. She also discussed the impact of Dennis Kucinich publicly acknowledging a UFO sighting of his own. Unsurprisingly, she loved it. She seemed to be pretty calm and rational about the whole thing, unlike what most people think of UFO believers.

From NBC 11/7/07.

What do you think? Have you ever had a UFO sighting?

i think it's time we started calling HuffPo by its rightful name: FoxingtonPost.

Why is it that this "supposed" liberal blog is doing everything within its power to see that Kucinich is marginalized? Because just like all the rest of the establishment media, someone who stands for true change MUST NOT WIN AT ALL COSTS.

Duh.

Apparently some members of the house are interested in something other than UFO sightings:

I love Dennis, and have been a fan of his since my Cleveland days when he fought for the people, BUT, he's too "New-Agey" for the top job. GO RON PAUL -- sorry, but not counting Dennis, I'm FED-UP with the DUMOcrats.
.
Ron Paul is the only real alternative. He has a billiant mind & a kind heart, and when he speaks, he cuts to the truth with no bullshit. So I have now decided to work for the Ron Paul Campaign.
.
Bye DUMOcratic party, call me when you get some balls.

Shirly Maclean is an idiot and guys like Kucinich should stay away from the likes of her.

I strongly support Dennis Kucinich for President and feel his UFO comment was just another case of him refusing to bend the truth or be dishonest.

But if you aren't going to vote for Dennis, please please please VOTE FOR RON PAUL!!

If the American public chooses to believe in BULLSHIT which includes Shirley MacLaine..­....so be it. If the Americans are worried that their country is disintigrating in front of them...sta­y away from Shirly MacLaine..­.she only wants to make a joke of it. If you folks see what is happening to the almighty Buck, please pray for it. Without the mighty buck...the­re is no good old US of A. Seems like the USSR were there a few years back. Out of the Ashes. American people must never allow Global Corporists to take over again.

Dennis Kucinich is one strange cat. He only helps Hillary and the rest of the dems.

If I were standing out on the balcony in Shirley MacLaine's home where the smell of roses had beckoned me out (her words) and some strange lights hovered in the sky for ten minutes, I would be moved also. Some moments are just magical and deserve to be processed internally and fully appreciated. Would that make me a kook?

Let's not make more of this than it is. The MSM is trying to.

[RightBrain]

The two strangest people in American politics in a harmonic convergence of idiocy.

The Dems better distance themselves from these two, and quick, you do want to win don't you?

[geobushono]

There is no news today.
There will be less news tomorrow.

So many "sightings", so little evidence. Sorta sounds like a religion to me.

Yeah... He walked on water. I saw it!

Truth be told, between the UFO and god/man myth, I'd run with the aliens. But that's only if I had too.

That said...

Why so much (virtual) ink on such a non-issue? I know it's in the entertainment section, but when Kucinich is in there you know it's supposed to have a larger impact than whatever some dumbass celebrity is up to.

Shirly Honey,
Your worst problem should be the disappearing US buck.

[shlampman]

The Huffington Post turns into a bigger joke every single day, snickering and sneering at one of the few people in Washington with any integrity. Meanwhile the country goes down the toilet because of the pathetic simple minds that legitimize the actions of charlatans and lunatics while they villify a guy who saw an object he couldn't identify.

This site is fast becoming a total disgrace. God help you if you ever lose the blogging of people like Bob Cesca and Naomi Wolfe who are your last links to progressive credibility.

Kucinich does not believe in UFO's persay. UFO stands for unidentified flying object. People tend to think that some gouls and such lives in holliwood only.

[MissingAmerica]

I'm with Kucinich and Shirley. I would love to see a UFO. It is ignorance to believe that we are the only inhabited planet in such a vast universe. I not only believe there are intelligent life forms in this universe; I believe we are not one of them!
