Senator admits he is an alien

SAVANNAH (AP) - US Senator Sam Nunn has admitted that he is a space alien. 'I confess,' the Georgia Democrat said yesterday. 'It's amazing I've been able to keep it a secret for 54 years.' Weekly World News reported last week that Mr Nunn and four other senators - three Republicans, Orrin Hatch of Utah, Nancy Kassebaum of Kansas and Alan Simpson of Wyoming, and another Democrat, John Glenn of Ohio - are aliens.

The paper has also published photos of the presidential candidates Bill Clinton and Ross Perot with a space alien. Mr Nunn said he is from Krypton, Superman's birthplace.
