Kwame Kilpatrick, former mayor of Detroit, didn’t think the rules applied to him. And for a while – as he was helping drive the Motor City to the brink of bankruptcy – it looked like he might be right. Alas, for poor Kwame, reality did at last smack him upside the head. He’s currently residing in Milan Detention Center, Milan MI, awaiting sentencing for his recent conviction on 24 counts of conspiracy.
Have you noticed how regularly a reality-optional attitude is found among our friends on the Left? In this case it definitely appears to be an inherited family trait. As various sources reported yesterday, Kwame’s mommy was the first one to accept an invitation to serve on a D.C. E.T. panel ~
Seldom seen and little heard from since losing re-election in 2010, former U.S. Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick is set to reappear in the nation’s capital this month as part of a panel taking evidence of extraterrestrial life on Earth.
According to the event organizer, she and the five other former members of Congress taking part in the Citizen Hearing on Disclosure will each receive $20,000 plus expenses for listening to five days of testimony at the National Press Club.
“Evidence has been mounting for the last 65 years,” said Stephen Bassett, who is organizing the event scheduled for April 29 through May 3. “We’re going to be holding the hearing that Congress should be holding.”
The panel is expected to question “a powerful group” of researchers and military witnesses who purport evidence that supports the possibility that aliens exist and that existence has been covered up by the government.
Yes, while North Korea is threatening to launch nukes, our southern border has been breached by millions of illegal (human) aliens and the economy is imploding, Mr. Bassett and his Citizens for Disclosure are frivolously focusing their efforts and resources on space invaders.

Actually, as wacky as this seemingly pointless endeavor sounds, it could just be setting the stage for über Leftist Paul Krugman’s dream for an extraterrestrial invasion…

When reality doesn’t suit your ambitions, create another one.
