Oh, go ahead and write your own jokes. “It sure explains some of his policies.” “I always thought he was from Mars.” &c.

Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich has seen a UFO, writes Shirley MacLaine in her new book, “Sage-Ing While Age-Ing.”

Kucinich, she writes on page143-144 of the book, “had a close sighting over my home in Graham, Washington, when I lived there. 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. It hovered, soundless, for ten 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.”

That’s not the only thing ol’ Dennis the Menace couldn’t comprehend: The guy wants to disband the Department of Defense and replace it with a Department of Peace in the middle of a war.

One nut case writing about another nut case…. Brilliant!

I guess these “alien voices” in his so-called mind told him to be a commie dirt bag!

Oh…so much material, so little time, Bryan.

Did Dennis get the rectal probe too?

Mike Honcho on October 23, 2007 at 3:07 PM

Too bad they didn’t take him with them.

And isn’t the rose fragrance connected to a extremely religious person’s death implying thier achieving sainthood or something?

He has to be legally insane, has to be.

Isn’t that redundant?

That’s what I claim my farts smell like too.

How would they know which end to explore?

How do our choices for leader get so poor?

He makes a good resemblance to Grand Moff Tarkin on the first Death Star.

Now if it were Guiliani he would have been prepared for the invasion

William Amos on October 23, 2007 at 3:19 PM

On with the show, this is it.

PatrickS on October 23, 2007 at 3:20 PM

I guess he’s trying to get the alien abductee vote.

Tuari on October 23, 2007 at 3:22 PM

My God, he really is a nut.

RobCon on October 23, 2007 at 3:22 PM

Has anyone checked his wife for ,oh, a seam?

bbz123 on October 23, 2007 at 3:24 PM

All kidding aside, this man is running for the President of the United States of America.

G-d help us.

Matticus Finch on October 23, 2007 at 3:25 PM

Dennis “heard directions in his mind”.

Hmmmm, a precusor for the modern day Tom-Tom?

bloggless on October 23, 2007 at 3:25 PM

10 minutes? Ten minutes I could have made a detailed sketch with a piece of chalk and my patio. Where’s the photos and video man! Lead us to the Truth!! *cough* *hack**bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz*

You don’t suppose during that ten minutes there was any “probing” going on? I mean come on, WTH were aliens doing, arguing over directions?

Tyrs Fury on October 23, 2007 at 3:27 PM

I think the directions he heard might have been along the lines of “the brown acid that is circulating around us is not specifically too good.”

SailorDave on October 23, 2007 at 3:28 PM

observing him…. It hovered, soundless, for ten minutes or so, and sped away with a speed he couldn’t comprehend.

Any intelligent life form would.

saint kansas on October 23, 2007 at 3:29 PM

This story is kind of “Out on a Limb”

abinitioadinfinitum on October 23, 2007 at 3:30 PM

So it’s not me: whenever Kucinich speaks, all I hear are buzzes and clicks…he’s really speaking in Omicron Persei 8-ish.

stonemeister on October 23, 2007 at 3:30 PM

Party at Shirley’s place. No need to BYOD — she grows her own.

Numenorean on October 23, 2007 at 3:30 PM

Wow, hanging at Shirley’s. Pulling the UFO bit on the balcony. He’s an inspiration to all the geeks of the world.

Dusty on October 23, 2007 at 3:32 PM

Brat on October 23, 2007 at 3:34 PM

Translated from the alien craft’s log:

On routine patrol we encountered some sort of being, using our telepathic probe, we found that it was not an intelligent life form, and moved on.

RINO_Hunter on October 23, 2007 at 3:35 PM

Phooo–oone hooomeee

jdpaz on October 23, 2007 at 3:36 PM

I saw one of thems once. It was in the middle of the night and it woke me up, so I turned off the TV and went back to bed.

MirCat on October 23, 2007 at 3:40 PM

Perhaps Dennis the Menace himself is an alien.

RobCon on October 23, 2007 at 3:41 PM

Sad, he never grew out of the ‘boats in the bathtub’ phase.

infidel4life on October 23, 2007 at 3:48 PM

The important question is, did those in the UFO see Kucinich?

If so have they reported back to their central command that:
1) Earth is weak, attack now?
2) Earth is contaminated, quarantine now?
3) Earth would be a good place to make film comedies?

MB4 on October 23, 2007 at 3:49 PM

I blame the NEA for teaching political correctness and not lessons in civics. The people of Ohio’s 10th district that put him in office drink the water from Lake Erie, obviously.
Or it might be to his districts demographics.

Kini on October 23, 2007 at 3:53 PM

Are you kidding? Dennis is THE MACK. He said that just to get into Shirley’s girlies.

I’ll bet Krazy Kusinich is ready to offer health care and driver’s licenses to yet another group of illegal aliens.

Den Den forgot his hat didn’t he?

mjkazee on October 23, 2007 at 4:00 PM

Shirley Maclaine? That nutbag?

Oh, wait… It all makes sense now!

mojo on October 23, 2007 at 4:09 PM

Shirley Maclaine? That nutbag?

Oh, wait… It all makes sense now!

Those two go way back. Apparently he lived with her for awhile when he was down and out. Maybe that’s when he saw the UFO thingy. Lots of weird crap about him on Wikipedia. And that’s the sanitized stuff.

JiangxiDad on October 23, 2007 at 4:13 PM

Shirley’s alien pals have to be really careful there… they could accidentally poke him in the eye.

hindmost on October 23, 2007 at 4:14 PM

hindmost on October 23, 2007 at 4:14 PM

That’ll turn his brown eye blue!

lorien1973 on October 23, 2007 at 4:28 PM

im surprised they didn’t take him along, after all, he would fit into one of their flight suits…
maybe he saw this???

jojostan on October 23, 2007 at 4:28 PM

Having Shirley MacLaine claim you saw a UFO doesn’t mean you’re crazy–it could just be more evidence that she’s crazy.

Being a close friend of Shirley MacLaine, on the other hand…

Blacklake on October 23, 2007 at 4:32 PM

Kang and Kodos must’ve had a good laugh when Kucinich stepped out onto the bacony.

Oh yeah…there’s a guy I want as leader of the free world.

flipflop on October 23, 2007 at 6:00 PM

This guy gives people who see UFOs a bad name.

trigon on October 23, 2007 at 6:21 PM

Oh, go ahead and write your own jokes. “It sure explains some of his policies.” “I always thought he was from Mars.”

I won’t be joking about this one, I saw the same thing basically… only I wouldn’t describe the experience in such a gay way. I wasn’t drawn out by roses and then moved “in my heart” and feeling “a connection”.

I was thinking “holy s***, our military is working on some seriously stuff that we won’t even know exists for a couple decades”

RightWinged on October 23, 2007 at 6:23 PM

smell of roses

After Kucinich had a super long chili dog at Wally’s weiner world he had some inner movements. His maid lit scented candles whose aroma floated outside then back to the balcony where Kucinich was visited by a UFO.

Drtuddle on October 23, 2007 at 6:34 PM

Can you imagine what kind of a numbskull that “wife” of his is?

LtE126 on October 23, 2007 at 6:34 PM

True. It isn’t the fact that he saw something but rather the way he processed what he saw. Dennis has failed the flying object Rorschach test.

csdeven on October 23, 2007 at 6:41 PM

I once saw a UFO.

Then hours passed, and the trip subsided.

deesine on October 23, 2007 at 6:45 PM

Hell I’ve even been to that Area out there in that there desert. Whats it called again, Area 66, hmm or was that the gas station I stopped at? eh anyways, they are real I tell ya… :)

johnnyU on October 23, 2007 at 7:16 PM

Proof to the theory that; two wrongs do not make a right.

right2bright on October 23, 2007 at 7:19 PM

That is when he got his brain transplant.

SIJ6141 on October 23, 2007 at 7:53 PM

What he saw was the right-wing propaganda machine. I saw it too. It told be to burn things.

Ortzinator on October 23, 2007 at 10:09 PM

Don’t probe me, bro!

csdeven on October 23, 2007 at 11:17 PM

His face looks like it was generous.

Did Dennis get the rectal probe, too?

Mike Honcho on October 23, 2007 at 3:04 PM

Actually, all Ohioans except the inhabitants of District # 10 know that Dennis is a rectal probe.

Shirley, Shirley, Shirley…it was bad enough when I read that you and a swedish Prime Minister not only had an affair in this lifetime also back in the days of Charlemagne but you got the century and situations wrong. LOL. Honey, just act on screen and keep the other stuff private.
