Who is Ileana Ros-Lehtinen?

In my opinion, she is the biggest Scientology political whore on the
face of the Earth. I have never seen this many campaign donations from
Scientologists to a political campaign in recent history, nor have I seen
such obvious quid pro quo in return for these donations.

She is effusively praised by Scientology in a recent issue of International
Scientology news.

From International Scientology News 25, August 2003:

That's not all. She has now drafted a bill to be introduced into the
United States Congress known as the "Trans-Atlantic Religious
Protection Act." This will penalize European governments that
discriminate against US-based institutions and companies and give real
teeth to the United States' commitment to religious freedom across
Europe. In Germany itself, we had key breakthroughs, such as an
important lawsuit won when the Federal Labor Court fully recognized
our religious nature and ruled that Church staff "are seeking
idealistic purposes and spiritual perfection through the teachings of
Scientology." And with that, they threw out the lawsuit.

---

Here is her website at the House of Representatives.
http://www.house.gov/ros-lehtinen/

I had thought Benjamin Gilman was the biggest Scientology whore alive, but this
twit takes the cake. A quick Google search turns up her incessant shilling for
Scientology.
http://tinyurl.com/kz19

Why does she do this? Well, she does it for money, mainly.

This geographical analysis reveals some interesting details
http://www.opensecrets.org/politicians/geog.asp?CID=N00002858&cycle=2004
For a Congresscritter from Florida, one of her core constituencies appears to be
California Scientologists.

http://www.opensecrets.org/pacs/memberprofile.asp?cid=N00002858&cycle=2000&expand=Q16
This shows she also received donations from Tom Gallagher's failed Senate
campaign.

Her voting record: http://ontheissues.org/FL/Ileana_Ros-Lehtinen.htm

This article covers her support for a group considered to be terrorists by the
State Department: http://www.hillnews.com/news/040803/roslehtinen.aspx

Her general positions are pro-life, anti-Castro and pro-cult.

05/25/2003 640.00 23991406735

Look at this picture very carefully.
http://www.operatingthetan.com/howelse.html

In it, you will see three big league Scientologists connected to a company
called e.Republic. Their website is at http://www.erepublic.com

Every one of those Scientologists donated to Ros-Lehtinen, and so did virtually
everyone known to be associated with e.Republic. e.Republic publishes a
magazine called Government Technology. How is this supposed to be an unbiased
publication when their customers are the very people they're reporting on, and
when they openly push a Scientology agenda to numerous politicians?

http://www.newsreview.com/issues/sacto/2001-08-23/cover.asp is a story on the
deep Scientology connections this company has.

You will also notice the 5/25/2003 date again, a repeated occurrence noted
by the elves who assisted in the production of this report. This date appears
connected to E. Republic and these three individuals. I suspect that, rather
like the schmoozefest depicted in the picture with California political whore
Bill Lockyer, attorney general of California, these individuals arranged a
fundraiser of some sort for Ros-Lehtinen.

No wonder they're smiling! And no wonder Ileana Ros-Lehtinen pushes their
bills so assidously, after they've funded her campaign so well!

This is the Scientology-connected PAC that mainly seems to exist at present
in order to push Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, which was detailed earlier. Donald
Pearson was also connected to the Scientology infiltration fiasco at Allstate.

That was covered in the Wall Street Journal article "Stalked by Allstate," which
covered the unsavory aspects of Allstate's adoption of Scientology harassment
"technology," which resulted in great embarrassment and legal
entanglement for Allstate.

I was suspicious of whether this was really a match, since Michael

But then, note the 5/25/2003 date. That convinces me.

Finally, she received donations from Tom Gallagher's Senate
campaign fund, as mentioned earlier.

While that kind of backpatting would ordinarily not be of much interest,
Tom Gallagher himself has some interesting donations from Scientologists.
In fact, it seems that most of the famous Scientologist entrepreneurs of
the Clearwater area donated to Tom Gallagher's failed Senate run, which
he dropped after pressure by Jeb Bush.

The rest are of the same general nature. Someone else has already compiled

I'm not sure all those are Scientologists, but a good chunk are.

I duplicate that list here, with no indications that the people on it are

This serves me right for taking a Scientology news release seriously. While
Ileana Ros-Lehtinen certainly did introduce such a bill, it was not in 2003. It
was not even in 2002. It was in 2001, and the last major event was that it was
referred to the Subcommittee on Immigration and Claims, where it died a silent
death.

There is no such bill before Congress, as examining the record will clearly
show. The only bills touching on both religious and international issues at
present are fairly tame concurrent resolutions, condemnations of stoning people
and the like.

The text of the ill-fated bill is at this location:
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c107:H.R.3145:

It appears to be based on the rather bizarre conclusion that we should "promote
greater cooperation" with our allies by abusing and harassing them for enforcing
criminal and civil laws if the malefactor is an American cult, or as the bill
itself says, "the imposition of punitive measures with respect to entities that
discriminate against individuals or groups on the basis of religion or belief."

However, the examples of "discrimination" so often cited to support legislation
like this usually is the imposition of penalties against criminals who break the
law. Somewhat reassuringly, a bill based on these premises did not survive.

SUMMARY AS OF:
10/16/2001--Introduced.

Trans-Atlantic Religious Protection Act (TARPA) of 2001 - Directs the President
and the Secretary of State to raise violations of freedom of thought,
conscience, religion, or belief at every level (including at international
meetings) with representatives of European countries that have failed to
implement their international commitments and obligations with respect to such
freedoms.

Directs the Secretary of State to: (1) promote educational and cultural
workshops and forums among academies, religious leaders, and human rights
organizations in the United States and in Europe in an effort to promote a
better understanding of religious and philosophical diversity and a tolerant
society; (2) train U.S. human rights monitors stationed at European posts to
identify, investigate, and monitor persecution and discrimination on the basis
of religion or belief; and (3) issue travel advisories on countries which
discriminate on the basis of religion or belief advising Americans of potential
dangers faced by individuals who are members of targeted groups. Authorizes the
Secretary of State not to issue a visa to, and requires the Attorney General to
exclude from the United States, any alien who is a high-ranking official of a
government which is in violation of international obligations to guarantee such
freedoms.

Directs the U.S. Trade Representative to impose certain trade sanctions against
European countries that engage in or tolerate violations of religious freedom.

Directs the Secretary of Commerce to incorporate into International Trade
Administration programs guidelines and warnings regarding discriminatory
practices of European countries against U.S. products or businesses on the basis
of religion.
