Bushes’ Yale Frat Suspended ...."no means yes"...
Members of the Yale chapter of Delta Kappa Epsilon will be giving it the old college cry, after the university announced the fraternity will be suspended for five years, while several members have been individually disciplined. The sanction comes after pledges were made to march around campus while chanting about a range of sexual topics—including necrophilia. Yale is already under fire—and federal investigation—after being accused of responding inadequately to sexual harassment complaints and allowing fraternity members to chant “no means yes,” and hold signs reading, “We love Yale sluts.” The Yale DKE chapter is no ordinary frat, though: It counts former presidents George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush as alumni.

1. Skull & Bones is still active.
Three generations of one famous global crime family are legacies.

2. There has actually been a break. A few years back the current members voted to let women in.
It did no go over well with the alumni, and they all had a vote or paddle session however they do it and kicked the college kids out of the real club. Since then the members of S&B are members of two separate groups, the old boys only club and the modern group that lets women in.

3. They're keeping two sets of books, then.
Outstanding solution to their problem. Most mafia like, the two-faced system helps track who's who and whose what's for offshoring tax-dodgers, warmongers, gangsters and traitors -- the work of made men.

Most importantly: Thank you for the heads-up, Exultant Democracy.
