Pssshhh, the joke is on you guys because the US has had diplomatic relations with Extra-Terrestrials since at least the early 1960’s.

Former Senator John Glenn was the first American to orbit the earth, and our first Ambassador to the Extra-Terrestrials in 1962. Senator Glenn was sent back up into space in 1998 on STS-95; the cover was that NASA wanted to study the effects of space on the elderly, but really it was for a summit meeting with the ET's.

Last I heard was that relations with the ET's had gotten a bit chilly; they had invested heavily in subprime mortgage backed securities ("it's rated AAA, I swear!"), and really didn't like the series finale of Lost.
