Post by: Furball on July 24, 2008, 12:13:32 PM
Former NASA astronaut claims that there is a cover up  :O  Cover up? UFO's? Haven't heard that one before.

Our government couldn't cover up arms shipments, a hotel break-in, or even a blow job.

I'm inclined to say that a UFO cover-up is far beyond their meager skills.

Kinda-sorta. An open government like ours is pretty bad at keeping secrets. It's inevitable that people not playing for the same team get into positions to pilfer highly confidential data, like the stuff that magically disappeared from Los Alamos not that many years ago. We're the same country that announced we had stealth attack aircraft way before we ever actually used them.

Now, if a UFO crashed in North Korea, a cover-up could work. Here? Doubt it.

hmmm... apparently this guy has some uh... credibility problems...

Quote
Mitchell’s interests include consciousness and paranormal phenomena. During the Apollo 14 flight he conducted private ESP experiments with his friends on Earth. In early 1973, he founded the nonprofit Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) to conduct and sponsor research into areas that mainstream science has ignored, including consciousness research and psychic events.

Mitchell says that a teenage remote healer who lives in Vancouver and uses the pseudonym Adam Dreamhealer, helped heal him of kidney cancer at a distance. Mitchell said that while he never had a biopsy (the definitive test for cancer), “I had a sonogram and MRI that was consistent with renal carcinoma.” Adam worked (distantly) on Mitchell from December of 2003 until June of 2004, when the “irregularity was gone and we haven’t seen it since.”

It's all beginning to make sense now.

Obama isn't the new messiah after all.

He's just an alien life form that will lead us into the new age of Intergalatic peace, love and understanding.

The interesting part is that even he can't do it without significantly raising taxes.   :uhoh

DMV is under State Gov't. might be better to use the United States Postal Service as an example of Fed Gov't.

I'll give my Anti-Theist opinion...Aliens have not visited our planet.This guy provides no evidence..No first hand account of seeing anything.

Anything that is asserted without evidence can be just as easily dismissed as untrue without providing evidence.

NASA still flies the SR-71. Last I heard they had 2 of them at Edwards AFB for high alt research. The rest have been mothballed.

Tell you what, a man sits in a chair straped into devices and launches himself off this planet, all for humanity and this nation.
When they brake that silence/oath of secrecy and risk it all to tell us something, you had better pay attention.



And you bet your sweet bellybutton the media will focus on ones presidents salamander, sucking before they tell you about other planets, religions and social orders or other SPECIES.

Someone mentioned the -real- government being the DMV, no no, the real government is a 9mm to the back of your head after your family go's out to play or have a pizza.

Then why was I looking at one in a museum a couple of months ago. They only built 36 of them, 11 or 12 were destroyed in accidents of one sort or anouther, NASA has a couple for research and the rest are ALL still sitting in museums all over the country. There is a list online for every A-12/SR-71 built by serial number, name of the museum that has it, and the location in the country were it is located.

Your "fairly" reliable source is talking out his butt. That plane is huge, needs a huge ground force to maintain it, and needs a large runway and ground facilities to operate from. If the Air Force did bring them back into service it would not be a secret. I mean it's not like they can pull those planes out of a museum in the middle of the night and fly off in the thing quitely. :rofl

I'm not saying that there is no life out there.

But you ever notice every time anyone brings this up, it's always second hand info. Some guy that just died told me, a former astronaut with no first hand knowledge that reports what others told him yet won't name those people. Then you have fuzzy pictures and dim videos. How come when ever you take a picture of a space ship, spirit  or a monster no one can hold the camera still, and the auto focus always pics that instant to not work.

Every time one of these guys has a story to tell you take the time to listen and it's the same old crap, second and third hand accounts that were never verified to begin with.
