Fareed Z. speaks out against out of control defense budget.
I'm not generally a fan of his, but Zakaria is right on this one!

You might want to know that a big part of the military budget goes into building and sustaining a secret fleet of spaceships. Gary McKinnon found pages of crew rosters headlined as Extraterrestrial Officers. Lots of eyewitnesses have testified to seeing TR3B's, Sport Models and even some very big craft that were not Alien-grade technology. Curiously, it's the secrecy and security that costs so much. Just what these vessels are doing is the really big question. We are so not ready to take our brand of friendship off-world.

Gary McKinnon the British hacker??
I.... really doubt him as a source. And I really doubt that any conspiracy of more than 3 people could have remained a conspiracy in these times, when a President can't even get a hummer in the Oval Office without it becoming a matter of public record.
