Bush, Kerry, Skull, Bones & Five Facts

[THUNDER HANDS]

Fact #1 - Kerry was inducted into Skull and Bones in 1965.

Fact #2 - Kerry graduated Yale in 1966.

Fact #3 - Bush was inducted into Skull and Bones in 1968.

Fact #4 - You have to be a junior to be enducted into S&B.

Fact #5 - Bush and Kerry could never have met in S&B because Kerry had already graduated.

Thank you. I know return you to your orignially scheduled conspiracy theory.

1. Come on, now.

Why let the facts get in the way of a good conspiracy theory?

You're a Boneman, aren't you? Go on, just admit it.

[THUNDER HANDS]

2. sorry, I went to Hofstra, not Yale

slightly less presigious school. Our big frat was called Femur & Cartilege. :D

[a_random_joel]

5. LOL!

I wouldn't let that get out. SOme around here might accuse you of being a satanic alien-breeding corpora-whore war profiteer who bites puppy tails and bathtub bubbles under the darkness of the new moon.

3. He used to be a boneman

We don't allow sex threads no more though. :wow: :spank:

4. The U.S. Navy Dropped The A-Bomb On Hiroshima

Kerry was in the Navy. I could never support someone who volunteered to be part of an organization that committed such crimes against humanity.

Kerry is also voluntarily drives automobiles. Automobiles kill thousands of people every month. Is that really the kind of man you want with his finger on the button?

18. It was the United States Army Air Force.

Sorry if you think I'm a jerk, but I hope to be an historian some day!

6. You make it sound as if he was king of the

Sadie Hawkins Dance......Well this is a life-long, blood brother organization focused on achieving the "New World Order". They are dedicated kinsman for life....

Kerry-Bush......same mission, same position in opposing parties.

[THUNDER HANDS]

10. that's a great idea

I think I'll nominate Kerry for king of the Sadie Hawkins dance. Wouldn't that just piss off people around here. He gets the nomination and gets to dance with Cindy, the cute redheaded girl.

:D

[boxster]

14. Yeah, right.

Are we forgetting about 30 years of public service? Kerry's record certainly does not mimic that of Bush.

It's simply amazing how people who buy into this theory think Kerry is going to have an immediate, complete turnaround in his fundamental beliefs if he's elected president.

Wouldn't you think his "evil agenda" would have made itself known before now?

7. I'm not sure #5 is so much a fact as a conclusion

Doesn't S&B have alumni and undergraduate mixers of some sort? I thought the whole point of S&B was to establish connections beyond your contemporaries. That said, I don't personally consider the S&B link, whatever that may be, to be very important.

8. Check it out - we've forced them to start their own threads

I'm glad the Kerry crew decided to steer the "non-issue that won't die" into another direction. Make sure you keep bringing up aliens - that's the best way to bury the conversation.

[a_random_joel]

15. I am not exactly a Kerry Band wagoner.

I still consider myself a Dean supporter.

I just turn left at the Illuminati sign.:shrug:

[delete_bush]

9. Nice try

If you add the facts together you get 15 (1+2+3+4+5). Divide by 5 and you get the average fact = 3. Add 3 years to Kerry's 1965 date and you get 1968, which is chimp's date. This proves they were in at the same time!

[THUNDER HANDS]

11. if I didn't flunk math in 9th grade

I'd seriously challenge your argument. :D

[tryanhas]

12. Skull and Bones is...A...LIFELONG...ORGANIZATION.

How many times do I have to repeat this?

Skull and Bones is not a college fraternity.

It is a secret society, a lifelong organization that is obsessed with being in power (no place more powerful than the White House). http://secretsofthetomb.com

They are sworn to secrecy and the same codes, FOR LIFE!

Skull and Bones, OWNS THE SPECIAL INTERESTS.

C'mon people, it's not hard to understand.

[snoochie]

19. Not hard to understand, no

But obviously hard to accept.

Remember, it's just a coincidence that all those SandB folks helped each other out at the Bay of Pigs.

It's also a coincidence that the corporation that owns the charter doesn't technically exist.

Move along, nothing to see.

13. re: "fact" #5, you think Alumni don't keep in touch? LOL@U

...with Skull and Bones, which operates a powerful alumni network...

[PVnRT]

16. While I agree the S&B garbage is just that

Skull & Bones, as well as all social fraternities, always keep in touch with their alumni, have parties for them at homecoming, host dinners for them, and so on. It is very possible that Bush and Kerry might have met at some point because of Skull & Bones.

[THUNDER HANDS]

17. I'm sure they met because he's the son of a president

And Kerry is a senator.

Until someone shows me nude photos of Bush and Kerry in a lover's embrace on top of a pile of dead babies, I'm not believing these two men are in any way friends.

Let alone in cahoots to take over the world.

[fujiyama]

20. You are a...

satanic alien-breeding corpora-whore war profiteer who bites puppy tails and bathtub bubbles under the darkness of the new moon.

Sorry I just couldn't help it ;-)

[sleipnir]

21. Magic Rat, really, you might as well suggest that MIHOP and LIHOP are

just left-wing conspiracies and not the truth...

Seriously, as much as we hate it, sometimes the truth is hard to handle especially when it hurts people in our party and on our ticket.

Kerry is a dangerous card due to his allegiance to S&B and until he denounces the group and reveals ALL of their secrets, I for one can never trust him.

If it's not a big deal, why not expose it all? Oh, because it IS a big deal......Kerry refuses to answer questions about a "club", yeah, a "club" right......

[fujiyama]

22. What bothers me...

is that he just won't admit his association with it...and more preferably disassociate from the damn thing altogether.

There is no evidence to suggest that he's used it a lot for career purposes...but that's not important because the veneer of a conflict of interest still exists. I read what the author of the book had to say about it and agree that secret societies are not healthy for democracy, especially at the highest level.

If it's not important, then just reveal what the hell it is...Who's in there? What have you used it for?

I hope these questions are raised for both Bush and Kerry if he is the nominee. Unfortunately the media won't touch it either, because many media heads are also members!

I really want to like John Kerry. He has been on correct side of many issues over his 20 years or so in the senate. He served bravely for his country...and by most accounts he has reached his success by his own hard work...but still, one must always wonder, to where do these members' allegience lie? to the organization, or to the nation for whom they've sworn to serve?
