THIS IS BIG
Andrew D. Basiago, 50, a lawyer in Washington State who served in DARPA’s time travel program Project Pegasus in the 1970’s, and fellow chrononaut William B. Stillings, 44, who was tapped by the Mars program for his technical genius, have publicly confirmed that Obama was enrolled in their Mars training class in 1980 and that each later encountered Obama during visits to rudimentary U.S. facilities on Mars that took place from 1981 to 1983.
(Thanks to Matt Filar)
Considering Mars is the future home of his presidential library, I am not surprised.

That's just plainly absurd.
Now, if it were Biden, well .....

"Jump the room" , as a saying, is no where as clever as "jumping the shark".
But I think something happened Upsatirs in the alleged
"jump room"...
But if Harvey Levin is allowed to run loose, why not grant Basiago the same..."respect"?

Is this the historical research Newt Gingrich was doing for Fannie May and Freddie Mac?

I already sent that tomorrow.

I think the term Chrononuts would be more appropriate.

In the Comments section, the Princess of China writes, "Obama must be one of the 144 archons".
Wonderful deduction, Mr. Holmes. Does the IRS know about that one?

I wonder if he ran into Donald Trump while he was up there.

Our sainted POTUS is not above leaking this story in a blatant attempt to grab the Mars colonists' absentee ballots en mass in 2012.

Governor Brown has just issued a highly annoyed statement asserting that he visited Mars DECADES before johnny-come-latelys like President Obama and demanding to be interviewed by Keith O so as to set the record straight ...

I live in Washington state. This is an excellent example of the quality and level of accomplishment of Washington attorneys.

Orly Taitz will soon be demanding proof that Obama was born on Earth.

Walk around Hollywood (CA, not FLA, sorry!) or Venice Beach after sunset. There's no doubt we've already been colonized.
NP: Major Tom, from Bowie's Space Oddity. How appropriate.
Happy New Year, Campers!
