“Today, voters in Denver will decide whether to set up a commission to track space aliens.” Yup:
The proposition calls for the city of Denver to accept reports of UFO sightings on its Web page. Sponsor Jeff Peckman says the government is tracking aliens, but refuses to make the reports public. And should we be contacting those visiting aliens? The Denver ballot measure calls on the new Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission to review the risks and benefits of saying hi to E-T.

This is how democracy works. A republic is slightly different.
Vote no on 6! Yes on 23! Maybe on 2/3x plus √7!
(This would've been funnier if the anti-numerist typo-bigots didn't suppress the operands I would've used. Or maybe not.)
Don't be irrational! Vote NO on ballot measure e.
Cool! Space Aliens!
Damnit, all the other states always have more fun than Oklahoma. All we got is English only and making sure that activists liberal judges don't use Sharia law to make decisions instead of what their Conservative Christian preacher man tells them. There are 11 State Questions on our ballot. I rejected 10 of them. Only voted for SQ757 – Rainy Day fund.
I figure I'll be long dead before something like Prop 19 gets onto an Okie ballot. Probably killed by a sexting drunk driver.
Oh yeah – I voted against Tom Coburn – so I stopped at the Quick-Trip and treated myself to a cinnamon roll.
Tom Coburn is what happens when in med school you drink too much of the formaldehyde.
I heard in Tulsa there is an initiative on the ballot to outlaw anal probing.
Just teh gays anal probing each other. Christian Conservative anal probing is still OKay. They have a God-given right to anal prob everybody else.
I think the city of Denver's web page should also be tracking strange coincidences that might Mean Something. Because who knows — if we amass enough information, a hidden order might reveal itself and all will be explained. Why just last week I mentioned a western movie with an entirely midget cast (The Terror of Tiny Town) and then, a couple days later, the very same movie was mentioned in a Jeopardy question. Why isn't the city of Denver's web page keeping track of this? I want answers NOW! And don't give me that cop-out about how I live more than a thousand miles from Denver. Freedom!
"Gonna build a mountain. In your living room."
As long as he doesn't want to set up a chart to track my bowel movements, I'm cool with it.
I'd forgotten that fine craigslist moment. Thank you!
The communist UN Denver bicycle plot was mere prelude to the imminent alien invasion. Wheels within wheels, people, literally.
Damned space alien tractor-beam babies.
Denver? Surely the movies and television have showed us that the Aliens will probably launch their invasions on New York and Washington, Tokyo if they're giants, or else Cardiff pretending to be London; while friendly aliens will set down in some generic small town or suburb to befriend a young boy and later his family.
The great thing about elections is that no one knows who or what they are voting for. Foolish humans.
Is balloon boy running for office?
If this passes, every time Orrin Hatch, John Boner or Mitch McConnell visit Denver, there'll be a new post on the website.
I think Jeff Peckman is about to get flashy-thinged.
Space aliens are interested in making contact with intelligent life, not retard life, so we have nothing to fear. Return to your homes.
I believe there is a similar ballot measure in Los Angeles to require the city's web site to track celebrity nip slips.
Nanu, nanu.
This is why citizen-generated ballot initiatives are a Very Bad Idea. Career politicians may be a bunch of corrupt log-rollers, but they don't put crap like this on the ballot.
They're in Wasilla.
I wish we had a ballot initiative here in NJ to force that fat fuck governor to save us taxpayers some monies and go on a diet or three.
With this on the ballot, Tancredo is a shoo-in.
Well, of COURSE it's important to find the space aliens- who knows how many of them are already voting in our elections, right now. Tom Tancredo knows what's up- what, you thought he hated those brown people? No, he was talking about the green folks from space.
Complete the danged forcefield!
