Yale Bones connect Bush , Kerry
Never mind Iraq, terrorism and the economy.
For some conspiracy-minded
voters, the real issue of the 2004 presi-
dential campaign is the allegedly sinister
influence of Skull and Bones.
Both President President Bush and his
all-but-certain Democratic opponent,
Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts, were
members of the elite and secretive club
that meets in a windowless mausoleum
on the Yale campus in New Haven.
Both Kerry, Class of '66, and Bush,
Class of '68, are extremely reluctant to
discuss their common ties to what Skull
and Bones expert Ron Rosenbaum calls
"the most powerful of all secret societies
in the strange Yale secret-society
system."
Back in August, "Meet the Press"
moderator Tim Russert gave Kerry the
third degree on his Bones connection.
"What does that tell us?" Russert
demanded.
"Not much, because it's a secret,"
Kerry parried.
"Is there a secret handshake? Is there
a secret code?"
"I wish there were something secret I
could manifest there."
On the Feb. 8 installment of "Meet the
Press," the President was similarly un-
communicative.
"It's so secret we can't talk about it,"
he told Russert.
"What does that mean for America?"
Russert pressed. "The conspiracy theo-
rists are going to go wild."
"I'm sure they are," Bush agreed with
a nervous giggle.
Since its founding in 1832, Skull and
Bones has had fewer than 2,000 mem-
bers, including three Presidents Bush,
his father and William Howard Taft
and such powerbrokers as W. Averell
Harriman, Henry Stimson and Henry
Luce, who all engaged in what Rosen-
baum calls "certain occult rituals of the
ruling class."
Bonesmen tend to help other Bones-
man. The current President has staffed
his administration with such Bones
brothers as Securities and Exchange
Commission Chairman William H.
Donaldsoon, Assistant
Attorney General Robert McCallum, Ambassador
to Trinidad e Tabago Roy Austin and
Edward McNally,, general counsel
to Office of Homeland Security.
Skull and Bones investigator Alexandra Robins
author of the book " Secrets of the Tomb"told Lowdown
yesterday that the society is
positivively gleeful over the
Bush-Kerry contest.
"Individual Bonesmen will sway according to their
personal affiliations" she said,"but the
Bonesmen I've spoken to
have said it's a win-win situation."
In what might be eerie coincidence or
further disturbing evidence of a scheme
for world domination. The Washington
Post has assigned Bonesman Dana
Mllbank to chronicle the battle between
Bush and Kerry.
"I have been assigned to monitor all
secret hand signals during the debates,"
Milbank told me half in jest but whol-
ly in earnest?
"I have it on good information that if
this one gets tied up in a recount, [late
Supreme Court Justice and Bonesman]
Potter Stewart will return from the grave
to write the majority opinion."
