Geronimo, voodoo, and George W Bush

[StellaBlue]

I have just been refreshing my memory thanks to wikipedia, and I was reminded about Skull & Bones. I thought I would probably find more, and more accurate, info on wikipedia than I could elsewhere amongst the many shadowy, conspiracy-theorist websites.

I knew that there was a rumor that Skull & Bones once robbed the grave of Geronimo, but I didn't realize the key facts. Here they are:

...members have a history of committing crimes to further The Order. Whether these crimes are part of the initiation or simply as a mutual encouragement of peer pressure, is unknown. For instance, grave-robbing has been committed on several occasions. The Skull and Bones Tomb was rumored to hold Geronimo's skull, which inspired Native American activist and Apache chief Ned Anderson to try to force a search and a DNA test. He would face many obstacles. As a Yale student in 1918, Prescott Bush, former Connecticut Senator, father of President George H. W. Bush and grandfather to President George W. Bush, had dug up the skull himself with two other students from its federal burial ground at Fort Sill, Oklahoma and presented it as a gift to the fraternity. The FBI refused to enter the fray unless Anderson removed himself from the investigation and turned over any evidence he had, an offer Anderson refused. Anderson then claimed, with several pieces of evidence, that he had met with Jonathan Bush, the brother of then-Vice-President George H. W. Bush, who presented the infamous skull. The skull was impossibly small, and is assumed to be of a child. Anderson then publicized the meeting, adding that the skull was not the one of Skull and Bones fame. A bonesman was quoted as saying about the incident, "We still call it Geronimo". The New Haven Tomb is rumored in Yale's own magazine to hold the skulls of Pancho Villa and Che Guevara as well. Fourth, The Order inspires occasionally a fanatical loyalty. Members have been known to stab the Bones insignia into their flesh to keep it on them while showering or swimming. Both John Kerry and George W. Bush are members of Skull and Bones. Bush refused to talk about their common membership in the Order of Death during his February 9, 2004 appearance on NBC's Meet The Press.

Bush: "It's so secret I can't talk about it."
Tim Russert: "What does that mean for America? The conspiracy theorists are gonna go wild."
Bush: "I'm sure they are, I don't know, I haven't seen their webpages yet (laughs)."
In another interview, when Kerry was in turn asked what could he reveal about Skull and Bones, Kerry said: "Well not much, because it's a secret... Sorry, I wish there was something I could manifest..." and then quickly changed the subject. Bush appointed 11 Skull and Bones members to his Administration in his first term.

Now, is it just me, or is that not only f*ckin' scary, but does it not seem that the Bush Crime Family has a lot of BAAAAAD karma coming their way?

1. My mind boggles...

Cindy was presented with a warrior's shawl and Tecumpsah was invocated....hmmmmm

[no_hypocrisy]

2. With the outright disturbance of the graves and robbery of the remains,

the Bushes of three generations have cursed themselves and their curse has followed them and unfortunately, we are caught up in the karma whirlwind.
