Four area residents witness mysterious object, lights in Selden sky
By ANGELIA JOINER Staff Writer
Steve Allen, Mike Odom and Lance Jones were out admiring a beautiful Texas sunset Tuesday evening when they saw something none of them can explain.
Allen called it an unidentified flying object. And, because he's been a private pilot for more than 30 years, he has a little more experience judging air speeds and distances than most.
“We all flipped out,” Allen said. “I didn't sleep a wink last night.”
Allen was at the home of Mike Odom in Selden about 6:15 p.m. when they suddenly noticed flashing lights about “3,500 feet above ground level,” he said.
“The ship wasn't really visible and was totally silent, but the lights spanned about a mile long and a half mile wide,” Allen said. “The lights went from corner to corner. It was directly above Highway 67 traveling towards Stephenville at a high rate of speed - about 3,000 miles per hour is what I would estimate.”
Allen said the lights were not those of a normal aircraft. He said they were more like strobe lights, and while they were all watching, the lights reconfigured themselves from a single horizontal line into two sets of vertical lights.
“The two sets were approximately one-quarter of a mile apart,” Allen said. “Then they turned into dirty burning flames. The flames were not blue. They were white in color. About two seconds later it disappeared completely.”
Allen said they were all scratching their heads and talking about what it could have been, when approximately 10 minutes later, the object flew overhead again.
“This time it came from the west traveling east towards Glen Rose,” Allen said. “And it was about two or three miles south of 67, and two military jets, possibly F16s, were in pursuit.”
“I was asking, “Are you guys seeing that?” Allen said.
Mike Odom said he didn't have trouble sleeping but it was a “wild experience.”
“It's unexplainable,” Odom said. “It was something not natural; it was moving way too fast.”
Anyway, Obama said when he starts negotiating his health care bill, "we're going to do it on CSPAN" so that everybody could see what what the insurance industry was up to. This was at the gym at Del Sol high school, and the 2,700 people went pretty much batshit crazy. At the prospect of watching health care reform legislation being negotiated on a channel that 2,699 of them have never watched. So that was cool.

The woman whose empathetic question — "how do you do it?" — sparked uncharacteristic emotion Monday from Sen. Hillary Clinton ended up voting for Sen. Barack Obama in the
New Hampshire primary.
Obama Goes After Bill Clinton
Share January 09, 2008 4:42 PM
ABC News' Sunlen Miller Reports: Sen. Barack Obama hit back at his rival's husband, former President Bill Clinton Wednesday morning on NPR's Morning Edition, accusing him of "mischaracterizing" his 2004 position on the Iraq War.
"Former President Clinton has continued to mischaracterize my record on this and we're going to have to call him on it," Obama said. "The press has already pointed out that he's wrong about this, but he keeps on repeating it."
Obama was referring to comments Bill Clinton made on the eve of the New Hampshire primary, lashing out at Obama and calling his candidacy "the biggest fairy tale I've ever seen."
"It is wrong that Senator Obama got to go through 15 debates trumpeting his superior judgment and how he had been against the war in every year, enumerating the years, and never got asked one time -- not once, 'Well, how could you say that when you said in 2004 you didn't know how you would have voted on the resolution?' " Clinton said at a campaign rally at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire Monday night.
"Give me a break. This whole thing is the biggest fairy tale I've ever seen," the former president said.
By Wednesday morning, Obama was accusing Bill Clinton of misleading people about his position.
"At some point we are just going to keep drilling away at the fact that it is indisputable," Obama said on National Public Radio.
"I opposed this war from the start. In 2002, 2003, 2004, and the fact that I voted for funding for the war once I got into the Senate is perfectly consistent with my position that it was important to make sure that our troops had the equipment and the tools that they needed at a time when things were very dicey."
Obama also said he is in a strong position to win the Democratic South Carolina primary on Jan. 26th.
"I'm reaching out not just to the African-American community, but to people from all walks of life, saying we can put together a coalition that we haven’t seen in a long time to actually move the progressive agenda forward," he said.
