Skull & Bones is a distraction. My uncle used to put it more clearly: "They all shit in the same pot."
Gene Coyle Response Jim C: Saying it is so doesn't make it so. Study the history, connections, machinations, ideology, etc of S and B. Just the fact that this cult, with some 2600 lifetime members since 1832, and about 800 living at any one time, managed to put up two opposing presidential candidates (thus breaking their oaths to support fellow Bonesmen/Bones women "above all others) is quite remarkable and worthy of attention if for no other reason than tactical and building possible united fronts. Some on the left need to get beyond the usual appeals to classics (authority), formulaics, ancient and sterile debates, quote mongering, source/data cherrypicking, gotcha, nit-picking, etc and investigate concrete conditions and threats as they emerge and change. This cult has serious organizational connections and intentions worthy of note, examination and critique. The fact than not one of the Dems has even deigned to mention S and B, along with the press, should say something about their influence, powers and dangers. Jim C
