…A correspondent for the Exeter Times-Advocate wrote on the evening of Monday July 21 a neighbor reported seeing a strange light in the sky over Saintsbury, along with a humming noise. The light was also spotted near Elimville…
..In the July 16 edition of the early files, the Clinton News-Record printed the following story: Bayfield summer residents report flying saucers – The Flying Saucers (products of this earth or another planet) are with us again! Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Cuninghame, Clinton, were enjoying a quiet picnic lunch on Heard’s sideroad, south of the village on July 3…

…After 39 years in the Marines, including commands in Somalia and Iraq, Gen. Anthony Zinni never imagined he would be tagged “turncoat.”…
…[Peace scholar Stephen Zunes:] “There are a lot of Americans who don’t want to believe their government is lying to them. It’s becoming more and more clear that the American people have been lied to…”

And a lot of people look at that and say, “If I’m an American citizen, that shouldn’t happen to me.”
