Yale bud: Bush bad
to the Bones
Maybe the Yale secret society Skull & Bones isn't as warm and cozy as previously believed.
A new book, "Ambushed," reveals that Bonesman David Richards, now a Manhattan real estate lawyer, was the member who tapped Yale junior George W. Bush in 1967.
But Richards - who didn't respond to Lowdown's detailed messages yesterday - tells "Ambushed" author Toby Rogers that the worst thing in the world would be for Bush to be re-elected President.
"I think it's pretty grim, I think he has trashed the economy, and I think he has conducted foreign policy badly, and I think he is a bad President," Richards says. "I don't know what he has done well."
Richards, who marched in Selma, Ala., with the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., also reveals that he had gotten "quite drunk" with Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge at the 1964 Harvard-Yale football game.
"My personal choice is [Sen.] John Kerry," Richards added, "partly because he has experienced war and has some notion of what it means to send men to die, as he was someone sent to die."
But Kerry, a 1966 Yale grad, is also a Bonesman, natch.
