Ok, so aliens are real, and the government has been secretly working with them for decades, so they leave information like that accessible to PRIVATE CONTRACTORS?
I don't effing think so friend.
Besides, if they did, don't you think the fact that aliens exist, and are here clandestinely working with the government, would have been the story to leak? NSA capturing your phone sex sessions is a little less sensational than confirmation of intelligent alien life.
Then again, I'm finding myself hard pressed to even admit there's intelligent like on this planet, alien or not.
William Cooper? Don't get me wrong, I love how he exposed Alex Jone's nonsense, but only to help build his viewer base of people listening to his nonsense.
here's another scenario.
You are Obama, the worst president in history. Your country is imploding, your government is falling apart, you are fighting so many wars the average person can't even list them all, the global financial system is in ruins, and the majority of Americans are demanding you be impeached or otherwise removed from office.
Wouldn't that be a great distraction? Yeah, yeah, i'm a secret commie social muslim, but hey, look over there, aliens!

His overall message is a good one. But it's also a given. He made quite a lot of claims, and as his audience grew so did his ego.
One failed claim was that JFK was assassinated by the driver.

I did an informative exposé on William Cooper in this thread:
Founding Fathers of the Conspiracy and Truth Movement

Just like every human, he had his flaws. Just like every human, he made mistakes. The few times he realized he made a mistake, he quickly went on record to correct himself and apologize.
He was, and still is, the most influential man of the modern Truth Movement. Alex Jones built his own career by using Cooper's work, which he denies, and is why Jones gets little respect from me in this regard.
