John Kerry part of Skull N Bones?
Is this true and if so does it make any difference to you?

2. He is, it doesn't
Do you know how many 'secret societies' there are in this world? Do you know how many actually do anything worthwhile. This subject has been hashed over and over and unless you are really into conspiracy theories, it is a pointless avenue to take.

1 - If there were something to it, middle America still wouldn't care.
2 - If there were something to it, Skull and Bones members wouldn't have such utter failures all the time (Bush and Bush to name just two).

I have issues with Kerry, but this doesn't even come close to being in my top 100.

3. he is, and it does give one pause . . .
I like Kerry . . . but this association is one of several reservations I have about him . . . there's simply no denying the influence of Bonesmen in US history, much of it on the sleazy side of things . . . how much his Yale associations mean to Kerry I don't know, but it does make me wonder if his administration would consist of old cold warriors and 20th century thinkers rather than the kinds of visionaries we need today . . .

4. Who cares?
And what does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

5. S&K
Please note the difference. There is John Kerry and "Don't bring that in here"Bush. I guess that's the spread.

6. Yes and yes.
Whenever I hear someone say "the world is a dangerous place" as John Kerry alarm bells go off for me.

The world is a dangerous place FOR THE LITTLE PEOPLE because the rulers of our planet make it that way.

7. Yes and No. Good people and Bad people.
Example: John Kerry and George W Bush.

Kerry is good. Bush is bad.

Kerry believes in service to country, community to others.

Bush believes in looting the country, community and others.

Kerry fought a war to protect the country.

Bush avoided fighting in a war to protect himself.

Kerry returned from war and fought to end its useless slaughter.

Bush stayed drunk until he was 40 years of age.

Kerry became a Liberal public official and used his position to fight the good fight for ALL Americans, at every turn.

Bush used his family's connections to keep one failed business after another afloat, ripping off investors at every turn.

Both are Skull and Bonesmen.

And like people in general, there are good Bonesmen and bad Bonesmen.

One seems to be a better man than the other.

8. yes and yes - what would happen if a S&B denounced them in public?
Edited on Mon Oct-06-03 09:36 AM by cosmicdot
... denounced and exposed ... putting an end to the 'secrecy' once and for all ... call for Yale to close it down ... what would happen? If it's nothing to this bizarre group ... nothing will happen ... right?

the day I see life-time crook Poppy Bu$h going to jail is the day I'll say "who cares" about the powerful wall street banking establishment and its hold over our society

http://www.freedomdomain.com/skullbones.html

it seems to matter more if one's name is "Bush", and not "Forbes"

this site is 'under construction' - stay tuned

9. Of course and no
John Kerry is a member of S&B. No doubt about that.

This is nothing to get worked up about. Young men (and now women) from privilege were tapped to be members (and still are). The report last night on 60 minutes showed that S&B, while weird, isn't some sinister control-the-world organization. Do they help members out? I would imagine that this goes on. Of course, I know old members of other fraternities and sororities that help members out. They just don't always have the political and social ties that S&B members have.

John Kerry is a great politician and wonderful Democrat. He would make an excellent president, and I'm sure his time in a secret society when he was 20 years old will have no effect on his decisions while in office.
