About that pod under your bed

Back in the 1950's when Communism was The Great Threat, the paranoia of the time, stirred up by the Republicans for political gain, was exemplified by the various low budget alien invader movies. Several of this genre dealt with aliens taking over our bodies. Nowadays we are once again experiencing great paranoia, stirred up by the Republicans for political gain. The difference this time is that instead of drive-in movies we have allegedly respectable scientists to scare us.
For the past 50 years, scientists have scoured the skies for radio signals from beyond our planet, hoping for some sign of extraterrestrial life. But one physicist says there's no reason alien life couldn't already be lurking among us – or maybe even in us.

Paul Davies, an award-winning Arizona State University physicist known for his popular science writing said Tuesday that life may have developed on Earth not once but several times.

Davies said the variant life forms – most likely tiny microbes – could still be hanging around "right under or noses – or even in our noses."
It would explain why Republicans are so different from human beings and why they constantly want to take over our bodies.
