Shirley MacLaine claims Kucinich had UFO encounter
2007-10-24
An American original. A Moonbat before we even knew what to call them...
Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich has claimed to have seen a UFO, according to Shirley MacLaine in her new book, "Sage-Ing While Age-Ing."
I was going to call it "The Voices in my Head Said Write a Book", but that would probably scare people off...
Kucinich "had a close sighting over my home in Graham, Washington, when I lived there," the actress, a close Kucinich friend, wrote. "Dennis found his encounter extremely moving. The smell of roses drew him out to my balcony where, when he looked up, he saw a gigantic triangular craft, silent, and observing him.
From hanging with Frank and the Rat Pack to hanging with Dennis Kucinich. How sad is that?
"It hovered, soundless, for 10 minutes or so, and sped away with a speed he couldn't comprehend. He said he felt a connection in his heart and heard directions in his mind."
I believe every word of this...
Kucinich's campaign and congressional representatives did not return calls and e-mail asking whether the Cleveland Democrat, now in his sixth congressional term, in fact saw a UFO or if there was some other explanation for MacLaine's recollection.
We'll have him get back to you when they beam him back down...
MacLaine is a well-known believer of UFOs and reincarnation. And she has been close to Kucinich for decades. MacLaine is the godmother of Kucinich's daughter and attended Kucinich's 2005 Cleveland wedding to third wife, Elizabeth, who's often campaigning by his side.
He's been married three times? Eww. How'd you'd like to be known as Dennis Kucinich's ex-wife?
MacLaine also recommended in the 1980s that Kucinich visit New Mexico spiritual adviser Chris Griscom, whom MacLaine featured in her then-best-selling book, "Dancing in the Light," describing how Griscom helped her communicate with trees. Kucinich has insisted that Griscom was not his spiritual adviser but a "teacher and a very good friend."
...and, of course, my official tree interperter.
MacLaine, who shares Kucinich's opposition to using weapons in space, doesn't shed any more light in her book on Kucinich's close encounter, including when it happened. Her book goes on sale next month.
Coming up next: I try pulling the same shit with Sinatra, and he throws me off a balcony...

Shirley MacLaine is still alive?


Well, not necessarily on this plane of being.

#9  RENSE > ISRAEL TODAY > DYING RABBI GIVES NAME OF MESSIAH. Its JESUS and derivatives. See also MADONNA'S SONG "JESSIE", etc.

ISLAM = ISLAMISM, BUDDHISM,etal. should also close scrutinize MADONNA'S SONGS for clues for their own. D *** NG IT, SO MANY MESSIAHS, NOT ENUFF LOOKING AT GWEN STEFANI'S BOSOMS - HOW CAN WE WIN THE WAR!?

#8  I don't think you people get it. Jon Stewart of the Daily Show has the
answer.

#7  Not even Lord Rove himself (Honoraria be upon him) could have invented a goofball like this to embarrass the Dems.

Nor, Ron Paul to embarrass the Republicans. Politics is really a two way street. Actually its more like a Chinese street dragon where the head whips around and bites the tail. Paul is so far right he is kissing KuKu coming up from the far left.

#4  If I were a nefarious Democratic strategist, OTOH, I would do everything possible to get a giant smelly sock in KuKu's mouth and send him away somewhere safe, like Easter Island.
He can run for shaman there or something and take his flaky friends with him.

#3  If I were a diabolical GOP strategist (which I might be for all you people know), part of my plan would be to keep KuKu in the race and out front in the media for as long as possible.

Not even Lord Rove himself (Honoraria be upon him) could have invented a goofball like this to embarrass the Dems.
