Ya'll know the traditional U.F.O. conspiracy theory is that aliens are real but there's a government cover-up and all, but since our politicians are content to lie to us anyway, why wouldn't they just make up a first-contact event and use that to institute their one world-socialist vision?
The global warming thing is falling apart, Obama is tanking in the polls, and all the professional politicians on the left seemed ticked that the whole first-black-man-as-president meme didn't blind the public to their ineptitude even for this long. They haven't even gotten their precious 'health' care package passed yet! Clearly, they are in desperate need of a new way to sell ridiculously big government to the people- and let's face it, terrorists who can't even properly light their pants on fire just aren't inspiring the kind of abject fear necessary to keep the average Joe in line.
Big ugly aliens, however, would be scary to the average Joe. Possibly even scarier than Congress. And you could blow up all the people who offend your sensibilities and blame it on the big ugly aliens too!
Besides, if you insist on manufacturing crisis in order to justify your tyranny, you should at least make the plot interesting.
