[Reuters] Yale Holds Secret Spot in Bush, Kerry Pasts

BOSTON (Reuters) - Conspiracy theorists, rejoice: the man elected president on Nov. 2 will be a member of an elite secret cabal with tentacles that reportedly stretch into all layers of American society.

We're not making this up.

Despite their ideological differences, Democrat John Kerry (news - web sites) and Republican George W. Bush share much in common. Each was raised amid wealth and privilege in the northeastern United States, and each attended Yale University in the 1960s where they joined the same secret society: Skull and Bones.

Founded more than 150 years ago, Skull and Bones is shrouded in the kind of mystery befitting the Gothic, Ivy League campus where its members meet behind closed doors in a windowless structure known as the tomb. It started admitting women in 1991.

Only 15 Yale students are tapped to join Skull and Bones each year. They spend their senior year forging close ties with fellow Bonesmen -- reportedly through the sharing of sexual histories and ceremonial rites -- and eventually become part of an elite association with friends in high places.

"Initiation rituals involve morbid admission of personal sexual experiences and coerced displays of sophomoric masochism and mystical mumbo jumbo, hooded robes and members carrying skulls," independent presidential candidate Ralph Nader (news - web sites) said this month citing video footage of a Skull and Bones ceremony.

At a news conference in front of the tomb earlier, Nader urged both Bush and Kerry to answer questions about their involvement in the group, specifically about their code of silence and how their allegiance to Skull and Bones influences their oath to serve the country.

Author Alexandra Robbins, whose 2002 book "Secrets of the Tomb" was based on interviews with some 100 Bonesmen who broke their vows of secrecy to speak with her, agreed with Nader's concern about the role of Skull and Bones in a democratic society.

"It's disturbing that the presidential candidates are both members of (Skull and Bones) because it seems that they're prioritizing the interests of a secret society above the interests of the rest of us," Robbins told Reuters.

FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES

Although conspiracy theorists have linked Skull and Bones to everything from the assassination of John F. Kennedy to the Watergate scandal, Robbins dismissed the paranoia and said the society is mainly an alumni network bent on getting -- and keeping -- power.

"The only agenda for Skull and Bones is to get its members into positions of power and then to have those members hire other members. It's a society of connections," she said.

Bush, whose father and grandfather were also Bonesmen, has done an expert job of relying on those connections throughout life, she said. Members invested in Bush's businesses and at least one was involved in his 1989 deal to buy the Texas Rangers baseball franchise, Robbins said.

In return, Bush has awarded Bonesmen with appointments in his administration. Among them, she said, are Securities and Exchange Commission (news - web sites) Chairman Bill Donaldson, Department of Homeland Security lawyer Edward McNally and Associate Attorney General Robert McCallum.

Kerry, on the other hand, has not exploited his Skull and Bones connections to the same degree -- or at least that's what Robbins' sources told her.

"If the past is any indication ... I would guess we would see fewer Bonesmen in a Kerry administration," said Robbins, who also graduated from Yale and belonged to another secret society, Scroll and Key.


Each candidate has referred obliquely to his membership in Skull and Bones.

In his 1999 autobiography, Bush wrote: "My senior year I joined Skull and Bones, a secret society so secret I can't say anything more."

When an interviewer asked Kerry what it meant that both he and Bush were Bonesmen, the Democrat replied, "Not much, because it's a secret."

Why all the secrecy?

Why would two professed Christian men belong to a secret society? I am still trying to understand this hypocrisy? Or am I just ignorant of how these things work?

Years back my father was approached to joing one of these secret societies but he stood on principle and faith and said not - repeated!!!

So why can't Bush and Kerry seperated? That to me is a true show of character. All of this goes to support all the conspiracy theorists on the their claims of power sharing and evil mongering behind the curtains. Both men are not men of character. They are both hypocrites imho.

Christianity and religion in this country (USA) is a big joke. It, afterall, looks like a joke by the day if we continue to profess our faiths and witness to unbelievers and then turn around and lead not so clean and transparent lives.

Finally, I must confess that anyone who votes any of these men due to the "alleged" faith is getting fooled and short changed. No man is bigger than God (Jehova) - so I do not understand why these men cannot talk about Skull and bones. And the two-faced pressed will not press them about it. It matters - it goes to the core of their character. Yes - IT MATTERS.

Yale's Skull and Bones Order and the History of the Luciferian Cult.

The Jesuit Order uses these Bonesmen, most of whom later become Masons and Knights of Malta, to run the political machine for the Order. Famous Bonesmen include Knights of Malta Henry R. Luce, the former head of Time and Life magazines and America's Press Lord for over forty years, and William F. Buckley, Jr., the owner of National Review and darling of the Fordham Jesuits of New York City.

One of the great giveaways that the Masonic Skull and Bones Cult is controlled by the Papacy is found in a portion of the rite of initiation. The initiate - like George W. Bush and his father, George H. W. Bush - must KISS the slippered toe of the Pope. This act of treason to the American people confirms the initiate's allegiance and loyalty the "man of sin" in the Vatican. It is by this means that the Pope - also using his Opus Dei Jesuit-controlled soldiers - enforces his political Temporal Power in the United States. Famous Opus Dei soldiers are former FBI Director Louis Freeh, FBI/KBG double agent and traitor Robert Philip Hanssen, and CIA Director William Colby who was later murdered while "on a fishing trip."

Remember the Pope's Masonic Jewish Zionists controlling the Mossad and Israeli Military Intelligence is to create the events that will fuel a coming American Jewish Holocaust. Don't ever forget, one of the purposes of the Pope's Masonic Jewish Zionists is to create worldwide anti-Jewish fury so as to incite the nations to drive the Jews back to Israel in preparation for the Jesuit General's final attempt to annihilate all the Hebrews in one geographic location. If the devil can destroy the Jewish race - called "the holy seed" in Scripture, then the LORD and Jesus Christ are liars and will never fulfill the Abrahamic Covenant.
