It certainly is an aberrant political year when we can observe that running for candidacy is a former dabbler in witchcraft vs a pet of Reid's who wrote about the virtues of Marxism.


Abnormal as the year highlights have been, flashback that Hillary invited psychologist Jean Houston (Foundation for Mind Research) to join her for a weekend to advise on reaching her full potential. She ended up channeling Eleanor Roosevelt and Mahatma Gandhi (the same one that she joked works at a gas station). And did you know that Al Gore wrote an article for a witchcraft magazine?



This year, though, is taking a bigger jump into being seriously outlandish. It's true the U.N. has already shown itself as something of a less-than-honorable circus act with the likes of Khadaffi, Chavez, and the insane little dictator Ahmadinejad; but this year they've come up with something new in their official capacity.



With the discovery of more planets, the U.N. thinks that such a discovery means we have now become more likely than before to be contacted by extraterrestrials.

•"the recent discovery of hundreds of planets around other stars has made the detection of extraterrestrial life more likely than ever before – and that means the UN must be ready to coordinate humanity’s response to any ‘first contact’.” Othman

The United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) has been formed to make sure earth is responsibly and peacefully prepared for that contact. UNOOSA is located in Vienna, Austria, and maintains a 24-hour hotline.

Malaysian astrophysicist Professor Datuk Dr. Mazlan Othman will be the head of UNOOSA and "act as Earth's first contact for any aliens that may come visiting.”



Battlestar Galactica

To give clues as to how to act when any outer space aliens come visiting Austria, the U.N. has been looking to a sci-fi t.v. show about interstellar travel. The show will serve as a sort of laboratory in that it has scenarios with real life choices, issues, dialogue, and actions for reconciling cultures of different planets.



The idea behind this strategy is out of belief that forward planning is essential to make sure we don't jump the gun and engage in a war that could annihilate us all. Possible areas of conflict will be discussed in a serious manner out of conclusion that preferable to annihilation is to integrate any warring extraterrestrial groups with ourselves to make a new species.



Ghost star Whoopi Goldberg will moderate the discussions.



Silver Lining

This useless endeavor for a useless organization does indeed have a silver lining. It will give them something to do for a while besides harass Israel.
