Had to look up Area 51. Nevada and ufo’s? Political truth? What’s that? Politicians lie, that’s all I know. Probably a mile off here j. Had a stab at it anyway:)

Not off at all...political truth is like trying to catch a UFO.

Ah now there is a gem that George Carlin would have loved. A fun read and as for me that doesn't believe in truth or politics not only an oxymoron but a non sequitur. Well dome my friend.

LOL. If there is a political truth, we'll never be allowed into the hangar it's hidden in. ~Jim
