The former North Bay congresswoman is one of six former members of Congress taking testimony at a public hearing this week at the National Press Club on what the U.S. government really knows about extraterrestrial life.

Yes. Really.

"The Citizen Hearing on Disclosure of an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race will attempt to accomplish what the Congress has failed to do for 45 years -- seek out the facts surrounding the most important issue of this or any other time," according to the hearing's website: www.citizenhearing.org.

Also plumbing the final frontier's mysteries this week are former U.S. Sen. Mike Gravel, D-Alaska; and former Reps. Roscoe Bartlett, R-Md.; Merrill Cook, R-Utah; Darlene Hooley, D-Ore.; and Carolyn Kilpatrick, D-Mich.

Note the typical sarcastic, derogatory tone of the article, which is typical of the corporate-government mainstream media propaganda machine. To read more of this garbage, click here.
