Tonight on CNBC's Hardball with Chris Mathews, John Fund of the Wall Street Journal said, "Scientology wasn't a religion in this country until President Clinton instructed the Commissioner of the IRS to grant it religious status in 1994."
Perhaps Fund was thinking about 1993 instead of 1994 . . . but I doubt this member of the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board--who most likely wrote the " Judge Whyte turned the law on its head" editorial--would have said that without being able to back it up.
You will remember in Tax Analysts v. IRS (http://www.xenu.net/archive/IRS) that Assistant to the Assistant IRS Commissioner Howard Schoenfeld was asked in deposition if there was "any White House or Treasury Department input" into the granting of the tax exemption. Schoenfeld's DOJ Tax Division Attorney Jackal instructed Schoenfeld not to answer the question.
It looks like dirty Bill cut a "religion" out of criminal cult cloth.
Perhaps for personal gain.

Most probably, the sex affairs -some of them perhaps criminal- have been
used by clamology against the Clinton. It looks so. Perhaps also the
commissioner from the IRS was trapped into some bad affair: scientology has
more than once trapped or tried to trap judges into possible blackmail.
Now we'll perhaps soon be able to make the reverse, that is, to accumulate bad affairs against DM and his lieutnants; but we'll not do such blackùmail for our profit, but to destroy this enslavement unit called scientology.
Justice and truth always prevail (though, like Tilman says, Xenu can always
prevail too, since he's kracking klams klusters... keep kwiet!!)
