Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction, and today's post is one of those times. Seeking Tin Foil Hat Vote, Hillary Clinton Vows to Release Gov't UFO Files. Yeah, that's the headline, and this is not a Slack Slacker tale. The story has been verified. It's been reported by the New York Times, the Washington Post, UPI.com, Mother Jones, GQ Magazine, Rolling Stone, and a host of other so-called respected news sources. This is not a hoax.
Since you missed it as did many, we did a bit of journalistic due diligence and found this nugget of campaign madness shamelessly hanging out in the public square. During a stop in New Hampshire earlier this year, Hillary Clinton had a sit down with the Conway Daily Sun and had the following to say: "I think we may have been visited already", referring to ETs. No lie!
And you probably also missed Clinton on Jimmy Kimmel Live saying she'd be more successful than her husband had been in his attempt to find and release UFO files. "I would like to go into those files and, hopefully, make as much of that public as possible," adding, "If there's nothing there, let's tell people there's nothing there. If there is something there, unless it's a threat to national security, I think we ought to share it with the public." No foolin'!
And if neither of the those revelations shocked you, John Podesta, Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, appearing on CNN's Jake Tapper show, had the following exchange:
Tapper: Tell us what you’re going to do when it comes to Area 51 [the Nevada Air Force base where top secret aircraft have been developed, and alleged alien spacecraft are kept studied and reverse engineered] and whether or not the U.S. government knows of aliens, should Secretary Clinton be elected president.
Podesta: What I’ve talked to the secretary about, and what she’s said now, in public, is that if she’s elected president and she gets into office, she’ll ask for as many [UFO] records as the United States federal government has, to be declassified. I think that’s a commitment that she intends to keep and that I intend to hold her to.
Tapper: Have you seen any of these documents? You were a White House chief of staff years ago.
Podesta: President Clinton asked for some information about some of these things, and in particular, information about what was going on at Area 51. But I think that the U.S. government could do a much better job in answering the quite legitimate questions that people have about what’s going on with unidentified aerial phenomena, and the American people can handle the truth. So, they should just do a thorough search and open it up.
Tapper: What is the truth? Is there evidence of alien life?
Podesta: That’s for the public to judge, once they’ve seen all the evidence that the U.S. government has.
Tapper: What do you think, personally?
Podesta: What do I think? There are a lot of planets out there.
No Sh*t!
No Sh*t!
By now, you should be asking yourself, so what's the angle? What's the point? Where do you go from here on a story like this? And that's the problem. There is no sane place to take this story. We're only trying to make sense of this senselessness as a public service. "They" say that when you see something, you should say something. Well, we see something really strange going in these 2016 primary elections and it's not just this, vote for me and I'll show you E.T., bullshit.
Thus far, American voters have been so overwhelmed by the outrageous that they appear to have become numb to the nonsense. As the primary process transitions into the general election, the likely nominees have overcome their most difficult challenge. They've worn the voters down. Voters are no longer demanding answers to tough questions because they've become resigned to the fact that any response will only be a dodge, a deflection, or an outright lie. Many just want to see this all end.
Bottom line: Normally, one could write this silliness off as just another crazy story to be filed away with all the other shocking tales and events that have plagued America's 2016 primary elections. Someone had to ask a tough question or two. For one, how the hell could Hillary Clinton get away with promising to out extraterrestrials living amongst us but not provide the transcripts of her speeches at Goldman Sachs? Secondly, why is nobody else asking this question? And lastly, but most importantly, is the voting public really buying this crap or is it as we've inferred above? They just don't give a damn anymore.
