FLORIDA POLITICIANS,GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS & SCIENTOLOGY
reposted to preserve the past works of "Mr Scary" before it fades away, originally published September 7, 2003 @http://home.tampabay.rr.com/sp/FLA.htmlThe organization known as Scientology is well known for making unsubstantiated claimsof success with their many programs including  Narconon,CriminonandApplied Scholastics, which in the end are all simply recruiting fronts for this group. Florida politicians and officials are now frequently associating with Scientologists and seemingto promote these highly questionable and controversial programs and organizations.
Former Surgeon General C. Everett Koop, M.D.on a book promoting Narcononprocedures: "My recommendation about detoxification is to keep away from it. Youdon't need it. I'm not sure it does what this book describes. It's dangerous. I don'tthink L. Ron Hubbard has credibility in the scientific world. The author'ssuggestions about detoxification can be detrimental to your health."
As a Florida resident, voter and taxpayer, I strongly object to our politicians andrepresentatives offering funding or even the air of legitimacy to Scientology, its practices, programs or front groups. These programs have never been independently tested or  proven, and are all based on the writings of Scientology founder and science fictionwriter, L. Ron Hubbard. Scientologists often rely on politicians and what they refer to as"opinion leaders" in a community in an attempt to gain credibility and support for their dangerous and unproven programs. This page is dedicated to exposing and confrontingthese officials and politicians, as well as serving as an educational tool for them.If you find yourself listed on this page, you would be very well served by learning aboutScientology and its front groups through the links provided here. If you are a citizen andoutraged at our representative's ignorance of the reality of these recruitment fronts andunproven programs, please write or email them and tell them!

CONTRIBUTIONS LEAD TO CONTROVERSIAL LEGISLATIONMay 2005:
Florida State RepresentativeGus Barreiroof Miami has been working toinsert Scientology beliefs into Florida's law and to fund Scientology programs in prisons.Legislation dealing with mental health issues and how children are prescribed psychotropic drugs was sharply limited, but had it been enacted as it was presented byRepresentative Barreiro, would have mirrored Scientology beliefs on psychiatry anddrugs used to treat mental illnesses. Governor Bush is expected to veto the other item placed in the state budget by Barreiro, a provision to spend $500,000.00 on Scientology'sCriminon program. Representative Gus Barreiro has coincidentally received significantcampaign funds from very prominent Scientologists, including some of the very peopleresponsible for break-ins of Federal government offices in the 1970's during the infamous"Operation Snow White."Click here for an extensive review of Scientology-connected contributions to Barreiro.Florida RepresentativeGus Barreiro

TAMPA BAY MAYORS AND LEGISLATORS TOO ACCEPTING OFSCIENTOLOGY
"While constant conflict between Clearwater officials and Scientology would serve no good purpose, there are hazards in becoming too accepting, including failing to represent the majority public view of the church and forgetting that skepticism is warranted when it comes to Scientology.Some Tampa Bay area public figures who lately have sounded like supporters and defenders of the church - including Pinellas County Commissioner  Susan Latvala  and political consultant Mary  Repper - should know of those hazards. So should Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio ,who accepted  campaign support from Scientologists earlier this year and recently had dinner with actor Tom Cruise, a celebrity Scientologist, at Repper's house.
