Jeb hires another creep - to run Dept. of Children & Families

http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/6654480.htm

DCF lawyer says he's not an extremist

James H.K. Bruner, recently hired as a high-ranking lawyer for the Department of Children & Families, was a featured speaker -- along with subway gunman Bernhard Goetz -- at a New York rally that decried the ''tyranny'' of the United Nations and used a U.N. flag as a floor mat.

And a website maintained by a group called the Patriot Saints for the Kingdom of God on Earth, which says governments should not provide human services to the needy, lists Bruner, 45, as a member of the chapter in his former home city of Albany, N.Y.

DCF Secretary Jerry Regier, who was sharply criticized last year for authoring essays that suggested it was acceptable to spank children, even when such discipline resulted in ''bruises or welts,'' said Bruner's beliefs are not far from those of many conservatives.

''The views he has expressed are certainly the views expressed by thousands and thousands of Floridians,'' Regier said in an interview late Friday, adding that men and women of strong religious convictions often are wrongly portrayed as members of a fringe group.

Liar, liar (thousands and thousands of Floridians)

2. this is getting to be the state
of lots of criminal creeps. Jeb just keeps bringing them on. Creep Rieger hasn't done a thing to improve DCF, in fact, it is worse then ever.
