NYT publishes op-ed on UFO’s…but not McCain’s op-ed
Little wonder why the Old Gray Hag’s profits are down 82%. From NRO:
The NY Times, now famously, did not publish an oped by Senator McCain as it didn’t meet their exacting standards. Today, there’s an item on a subject near and dear to Media Blog readers: homeland security and fighting terrorism.
According to the oped, we need to start taking the threat of U.F.O.s seriously if we are to truly have a safe America:
A healthy skepticism about extraterrestrial space travelers leads people to disregard U.F.O. sightings without a moment’s thought. But in the United States, this translates into overdependence on radar data and indifference to all kinds of unidentified aircraft — a weakness that could be exploited by terrorists or anyone seeking to engage in espionage against the United States. . . .
The United States is no less vulnerable than Britain and France to threats to security and air safety. The United States Air Force or the National Aeronautics and Space Administration should reopen investigations of U.F.O. phenomena. It would not imply that the country has suddenly started believing in little green men. It would simply recognize the possibility that radar alone cannot always tell us what’s out there.
Got it? The threat of stealth al-Qaeda U.F.O.s is more important than Senator McCain’s response to Senator Obama.
Nope…no liberal media bias!

Yikes! The three remaining readers of the NYT will be horribly uninformed. So, basically nothing new.

Put Dennis Kucinich on UFO watch – he’s apparently good at spotting them. Maybe draft up Jimmy Carter, too; as I recall, he saw one back in the day. They can be in charge of our new Department of Spaceland Security.
Maybe the aliens will kidnap them both…
