Hillary's plan for repelling an alien invasion
2007-12-17
Call it Hillary's alien inspiration. The former first lady wants to take America back to the movie references of the 1990s.

"Remember that movie 'Independence Day,' where invaders were coming from outer space and the whole world was united against the invasion?" she asked at a campaign event Saturday. "Well, why can't we be united on behalf of our planet?"

In 1996, Bill Clinton mused about the movie, saying Americans could beat the aliens. "Yes, I think we'd fight them off. We'd find a way to win. That's what America does - we'd find a way to win if it happened."
And you thought Kucinich was whack!
He is.

#18  I'm thinking it would be more like the Twilight Zone episode, To Serve Man, based on the Damon Knight short story: “It's a cookbook!”

#17  Actually BJ really enjoyed seeing the destruction of the White House on the screen, because he imagined Hillary was inside.

#16  If elected, all hill needs to do to prevent the destruction fo the whitehouse is sunbathe nude on the roof... anyone human or alien looking to target the area will be struck permantly blind. she can work the 'inhuman shield' in shifts with pelosi, boxer, and helen thomas. it might even burn out the circuits of the russian sats...

#15  I believe it was REDDIT > NEWLY DISCOVERED SPACE SIGNALS OF AMBIGUOS INTERPRETATION > iff signals are ever indeed from a non-human space civilization, NO WAY TO KNOW/PROVE IFF THE ETS ARE FRIENDLIES???

OTOH, could be just more LOST TIME TOURISTS/STUDENTS TWEENIES, etc. from Earth's future, trashing old Earth wid their Soylent Green, Red, etc. Space Big Macs on a Friday nite.

#14  Actually, Hilly, most of your friends think that's Bush's ploy - try to unite the Country behind the (baseless, of course) fear of the Islamic Crusaders.

I thought you called it "Fear-Mongering".

#13  I would guess that most exotic dancers vote Dem if they even vote. The Republicans are generally against vice and that often includes strip clubs and such. Dems are all for vice as long as it won't cost them votes.

#12   How many exotic dancers vote?

Let's go ask 'em!

Field trip!

#9  I would not be surprised if most exotic dancers vote Republican. They have to work for a living without the benefit of tenure, unions or a bullet-proof government job.

#8  Good point, P2K. Also, remember how the "exotic dancer" confessed to the First Lady that she had voted for the other candidate. How many exotic dancers vote Republican?

#7  Notice how they forgot that in the movie no one got their act together until the Aliens were kind enough to wipe out all the hard core blue districts first? They even ejected their Harry "We've Lost" Reid character -

"The only mistake I ever made was to appoint a sniveling little weasel like you Secretary of Defense! However, that is a mistake—I am happy to say—that I don't have to live with. Mr. [Albert] Nimziki, you're fired!"

#6  @ #5: I think he might have been fine with that then. She's probably cool with that now too.

#5  or that the First Lady got mortally wounded...

#4  Maybe Clinton doesn't remember how the people cheered when the White House got blown up.

#3  "Independence Day"? Oh, brother. Yeah, Hil, that's a likely scenario.

These mooks need to read more. Try James Tiptree, Jr's "The Screwfly Solution"... No big saucers, no alien networks with inexplicably understandable protocols, just total extermination for humans.

It's a real estate deal, you see, and we're in the way.

#2  That's what America does - we'd find a way to win if it happened

Unless the dhimocrats were in charge then they would surrender as fast as they could.
