Congress’ First Hearing on UFOs in 50 Years: It’s a Joke
So, I am a tad bit disappointed with the Congressional hearing on UFOs yesterday. I talked myself down from being angry. I don’t know enough about hearing and how things go, or should go. It felt like a joke. I will be telling some jokes here at the end. There was an hour an half of senators asking questions, and very few good questions. No good answers. Too many “I will address that in the closed hearing” answers. If Congress really wants to move this story forwards in the public, they questioned the wrong people. Who would I have questioned? Haim Eshed. I would have asked those two there about Haim Eshed. That would have been a good start.
The conversation being had at the conference took a very dangerous turn on how to regulate information, literally discussing if it would be necessary to penalized people spreading disinformation. Seriously, any information discussed in a public forum would like to be controlled. Had I been there, as a person asking questions, I would have added:
“What do you suppose the penalty should be for public officials who have lied to the US citizen over the last 70 years?”
Seriously, Mr. LaHood took this UFO narrative to a place counter to transparency…
