The Eisenhower story seems a little far fetched, but for anyone to assume we are the only species that evolved in this vast universe is simply not right either. Whether they have visited us is open to speculation.

No treaty is valid in this country until a 2/3 majority in the Senate has ratified it. There is no appeal, however, once a treaty has been ratified. Most jurists believe that it then has the same authority as the Constitution. Some believe a treaty supersedes the Constitution.

None of which would apply to extraterrestrials.

Suggesting aliens signing a treaty with any U.S. President makes about as much since as handing out parking tickets to flying saucers.

I don't believe that it has ever been adjudicated, but if you have a citation, please post it.

Sounds like something out of Weekly World News, known for hot off-the-press articles like "Dick Cheney is a Robot!", "Hillary Clinton Adopts Alien Baby" and "Bigfoot is my Baby's Father". Proof that the government hides the truth from the public! Men in Black know all about it.

Old news! This has been conspiracy-theorized for decades. I used to know a lovely gentleman named Leonard Stringfield (RIP), who wrote and wrote and wrote about it. He was the most fascinating man I ever interviewed as a newspaper reporter; that interview began our friendship.

This is most likely a bunch of hokum, but there were tons of flying saucer seen in the 1950's. I've always wondered why these sightings were so common back then.

It’s “My” Bird, of course. “What could be gained ?” Dinner.

Just .... dinner.

Because the carnage you just described; is actually very common. It’s just not as special when it’s a rabbit or a squirrel. But it’s called ... Bird Predation.

Big meal? Big Bird. Simple.

It also works very nicely with that whole “Found in a tree” or “Every bone was broken” ... part.

I saw him in 2006 & Im pretty sure he’s been around for a lot longer than just a few centuries. Besides in the “artistic/cultural/religious” sense, of being carved into the top of every totem pole of every native tribe (those that did the totem poles) in North America ... There are fossils found of his possible ancestors, all the time, including one new species identified by a complete fossil found about a half a mile from where I saw him.

Just so you know, 'quatch has been reported to disappear into thin air while out in the open like a ghost and be seen in the company of flying saucers and/or strange lights...

And no bird is capable of lifting a 2000 lb animal into the air.

The article itself is written in some alienesque corruption of the English language. Maybe the other guys are choosing now to disclose the agreement.
