Sour Grapes. Duhlallen probably had a big bile surge watching Nancy Pelosi get sworn in, two heartbeats away from the Presidency.. Now that the Dems are getting down to work, I'm seeing a lot of bile surges on a lot of threads. It's heart-warming! Let's get those oversight hearings going!

If you followed my posts you'd know I had no good will toward the last Congress. When it comes to Congressional promises I have ALWAYS been a cynic. Finally, I'm not angry.... Maybe you should stick to replying to what you see me post rather than what you imagine or assume. You may make a lot more sense that way....try not to sound like the haters like J. Chrissy poo, et al.....

Yesterday, on CNN, they were discussing the whole Chicago UFO sighting. One of the workmen who saw the object was on but he was shadowed so you couldn't see who he was. He explained how he saw the object hover over the Chicago airport, then take off straight up without any noise or evidence of propulsion and causing the clouds to part as it went up. The interviewer said is there any chance you mistook the object for a plane, blimp or weather phenomenon. The guy said absolutely not. After he went off the air, they then had an expert on discussing UFOs who said there are numerous sightings every year. The guy proceeded to say that people don't know what they are looking at so they make things up to explain it. Usually we find out its a weather phenomenon although in two examples he gave, the UFO was something else. He went on to say the famous Roswell sighting was a spy satellite and the 'UFOs' seen recently by the Mexican air force were oil wells flaring off. He said in time, they always figure out what they are. I came away realizing how they 'defuse' the issue so that it never goes anywhere and has no credibility for most people. They don't directly attack the eye witness but instead provide instances where the sightings were not UFOs but something else. They never tell you how many sightings were never debunked or explained away adequately. They never tell you whether the eye witness was a credible one or not. They simply drop it at that point. And so the 'expert' wrapped up by wondering why would a UFO travel millions of miles just to hover over the Chicago airport. Why indeed.
