Pirate's Cove

Seriously, has their ever been a time so many weirdos have been running for president? You have Ron Paul and his Trutherism. John Edwards living like a prince and talking about poverty. Obama’s flirtation with gay bashers and hard core Islamics. And then there is Bill Richardson

If he wins his bid for the White House, Democratic presidential candidate Bill Richardson may be just the man to get to the bottom of the 60-year-old Roswell UFO mystery.

Answering questions at a townhall meeting Friday, a Dell employee asked Richardson about the 1947 incident in which many people still believe a flying saucer landed near the eastern New Mexico town.

“I’ve been in government a long time, I’ve been in the cabinet, I’ve been in the Congress and I’ve always felt that the government doesn’t tell the truth as much as it should on a lot of issues,” said Richardson, who is governor of New Mexico.

“What do you want me to do? You want me to open up all those files?” he asked the alien enthusiast, who answered that he did.

“I’ll work with you on that.”

Ooooooooo-kehhhhhhhh. I guess that is a bit more important then fighting the war on terror. Sure, most people wold be interested in knowing, but, really, it is not that important.

I hope he was kidding around.
