John Travolta Will Save Haiti

John Travolta slipped on his waterproof lacefront, jumped into his private plane and flew to Haiti to drop off a bunch of relief supplies. Johnny's rep confirmed to CNN that he personally flew the plane himself. I'm going to straighten up my side-eye, because John taking supplies to Haiti is a good thing. John is doing more than most. But then I read this part....

"In addition to relief supplies, Travolta is bringing along his wife Kelly Preston, several doctors and Church of Scientology ministers."

Let's just hope that these Scientology ministers are only there to help unload the plane, and not there to E-meter the Haitians for Thetans.

Tommy Girl lives for a reason to put on his custom-made flight attendant unitard, but he didn't go to Haiti in case there's gay people there.

$cientology is expensive.....so, uh, how are people who mostly had little before and have even less now supposed to pay for that shit once it stops being "charitable"?

-------------------------------------------------
Are you gonna bark all day, little doggie, or are you you gonna bite?

CoS fliers should just do flyovers and parachute the goods down to the people.

So many legit help is denied. And all those millions raised already. Will it never get to the poorer classes because of greedy administrators like it so often happens elsewhere?

All the celebs who helped raise money deserve our gratitude, no matter how we may dilike them, otherwise.

So true. They pulled the same shit after 911, and are nothing more than a bunch of ambulance chasers. From softpedia:

The Mission Impossible 3 actor has been criticized for suggesting the firefighters suffering the effects of smoke inhalation from the World Trade Center terrorist attacks to give up their medication as part of a 'purification rundown' no-expense-spared by his Church of Scientology elders.
In fact, all the people exposed to potentially dangerous materials circulating in the air after the collapse of the World Trade Center, were advised to choose the Scientologist cure based on saunas and other natural treatments, like cooking oil, for example.

Tommy Girl is a grade A cunt. John however doesn't strike me as one and I had hoped that after what happened to his son he would see through this moronic organisation. In stead it has the cheek to fly to a disaster area to try and convert people

I fucking hate anyone who is even moderatly connected to this fucking cult. The poorest people are suffering and they are offering barley water and books on thethans. Die already.

So disappointed in him. I thought that Jett's death would be a wake-up call for him, but obviously he and his clammy 'wife' are still living in denial :(

More than ever, I'm sure. I have had to make some hard decisions for my child who has autism. I check myself every day to be able to see clearly and admit when I make a mistake. It's hard even on this level - it must be that much harder to admit it when the child passes away. The natural response would be denial to protect your sanity - except that that isn't exactly the way it works.

BTW, you do know that "Touch Therapy" does not require touching, right? The practitioner just runs their hands over the body about an inch or two from the person. And it's bullshit.

z-listed's picture

Fucking show-off! Who asked him to fly to Haiti? Last week the news reports were full of stories about planes that couldn't land because the airport was too crowded. Crowded with idiots like this who decided to take matters into their own hands and become "heroes".

And you KNOW ain't nobody asked for any $ci-fi
"ministers"!

I wish Travolta would just leave that stupid cult. He seems way to smart to be wasting so much of his life on a cult that told him not to give his son medication and admit to the problems his son had, and just cover up and deny and abuse that is all that church does. It is the most transparent evil organization that exists...bar none. To think that these "ministers" are going to do any good in this major crisis is disgusting...trying to convert people who are in such agony and are experiencing so much loss is just cruel. How low can you go for real...just give them the supplies to save them and spare them the C.O.$. bullshit.

*************************************************

No, it's more like the CO$ has their claws so deep into Revolta's pockets, he couldn't walk away if he wanted to. Not without every single secret or skeleton in his closet being exposed.

*************************************************

I think he could have walked away quietly and just not diss them (like Nicole after TommyGirl divorced her) and even if they started an attack on him, he would probably get the public's sympathy. Likewise, he just as well could have just helped deliver food and other supplies to LEGIT organizations down there, and told the vulture, I mean, volunteer ministers to eff off if they wanted to hitch a ride. I'm sure he has enough power to do that but obviously he likes the perks that come with shilling for the cult or actually believes in their bullsh!t.

It isn't the first time the Scientolgy asshats have exploited pain, trauma, and suffering to further their agenda

Daniel Craig looks like he'd angry sex you into a coma!--astute observation by ISprainedMyUvula

They are apparently at medical triages giving people "touch therapy." With rubber gloves, mind you. The doctors are like, get the fuck out of my way.

People think it's great that he flew in with all these "supplies." But given all the ministers he brought with him, who do you think will be using the food and water for the most part? The scientologists on the ground have to dip into that or use other aid organizations supplies. They are being a pain in the ass.

@hcs0501 :

Someone on NYT posted that the plane had been turned away a couple of days ago and that they increased the number of supplies and real medical help (including Haitian-American doctors) and then it was allowed to land. I want to know how that plane made it ahead of 800 other flights that have been cuing for a week and a half. Someone played favorites for a celebrity and it needs to be uncovered and the individuals who did it need to be removed from landing control.

__________________________________________________
I am not a pussy.

From MSNBC regarding Travolta and his "aid" mission:

"Aid groups have been desperate to fly their own planes into the over-stressed airport. U.N. humanitarian spokeswoman Elisabeth Byrs said Tuesday that at least 800 planes with relief items are on a waiting list for the airport, which can handle only about 130 flights a day due to a lack of space to park planes as they unload.

The aid group Doctors Without Borders has complained that the flight scheduling priorities of U.S. military controllers running the airport delayed the arrival of field hospitals, resulting in some deaths."

Legitimate aid groups on the ground are saying do NOT come down here unless you have disaster relief experience and are completely self-sustaining - have your own supplies, food, water, shelter and transportation. Either way, Travolta looks like an ass. You can't just drop shit off there and expect it'll somehow make it through. The airport is already overburdened. And you can't just stay there trying to help. They are just complicating things when the real aid groups are trying to help save lives. Some religious couple made it down there to "help out" but they had very little food, water, etc...they ended up having to use the aid that was supposed to be for the victims!! And then were on a plane home. Just send your money - there are enough good organizations to donate to. Don't make things worse.

Whatever's picture

Typical cult. They don't do anything for anyone unless there is something in it for them. The last thing those poor people in Haiti need is to hear about Xenu.

A comment from a doctor working in Haiti treating patients and dodging Scientologist ministers and their touch therapy via The Lede @ NYTimes.

"The news agency said that an American doctor at the hospital who asked not to be identified commented sarcastically, “I didn’t know touching could heal gangrene.”

A couple of comments from the gawker link fishsticksfan posted, these were one right after the other:

"I have a friend who was part of the UN relief effort in Indonesia, following the Tsunami. She said the Scientologists showed and were completely in the way and useless. Everything was in chaos , people needing medical attention, water, a place to sleep, etc, and the Scientologists brought pamphlets. Go Team Xenu!"

"Well, the starving people can always kill them and eat them. That way they would be some use."

I'm sure the only thing the scientologists are interested in is publicity. They won't be trying to recrit any Haitians, they are just trying to appeal to wealthy Americans by showing how selfless they are.
Come on Captain Travolta, someone's got to escape from the C.o.s. eventualy...we all know about your baldy gayness.

I think its a great gesture and perhaps the others going with him are there only to help. OMG did I make a post without cynicism? It's a new year I'm trying.

I think it's cool that Travolta & his wife are bringing supplies using their own jet.

I did kind of shudder when the next sentence in the article said that Travolta & his wife would be leaving after dropping off supplies.

Hell they might even think better about actually landing in hait & decide to just drop the shit over the pier as they fly over Port Au Prince...and the little Scientolgy Preachers will jump out & deploy parachutes...

whatever works I guess

My advice to John Travolta is the same advice I have to any celebrities after a disaster occurs and the celebs insist they want to help: Just write a check and stay out of the way.

Meatloaf's picture

Don't you recall Tommy Girl's rant about how if he saw a car wreck, he'd stop and help because "as a Scientologist, I know I'm the only one that can help them". You'd better believe Queervolta and his beard will bring the total crazies. There will be all kinds of Haitians hooked to E-readers and praying to Xenu if he has his way.

At first I thought it was a nice gesture, but now I think it's in-the-way, buttinsky, SCIENOS-to the-rescue, thetan-chasing, tin-foil-hat-wearing crazy shit. Leave the flying in with supplies to the professionals. Offer your plane, if you must. But leave your fricking religion out of it and your famous face out of it. Scientology ministers, please. They will probably wield a geiger counter that they say measures evil thetan energy and proclaim this is what caused the disaster.

I keep thinking of that great scene in the movie "Clueless", where Alicia Silverstone's character "Cher" is dragging ski equipment down the stairs of her mansion, and her father stops her and asks her "what the hell she is doing"???

Her response was that she was gathering sports eqipment for "the victims" of the california wildfires....

Her father points out that perhaps food and medical supplies would serve the purpose better, to which Cher replies: "Well Daddy - don't you think that the needy might miss their sports and excercise equipment too"?????

Travolta needs to get a grip - if he really wants to help he should have donated his piloting skills, plane, and a ton of money to the Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, or any one of a dozen International, non-denominational organizations - let the experts handle this...and frankly - NOBODY needs a bunch of Scientologists "counseling" the victims and getting in the way. People need food, water, and medicine - not a photo-op.

...All of the NGO's are saying STAY THE HELL AWAY unless you are invited by an established relief organization with disaster experience. People like Travolta and the Scientologists are landing there with no food for themselves and no plan for where they are going to stay. When they realize how bad off the victims are, they freak out and have to be rescued. They are making it harder to get the relief to the the people who need it...

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Now THAT'S what I'm talking about! The news programs all had this warning about people just showing up wanting to help but way out of their depth for this kind of tragedy. Plus, showing up with coats, evening gowns, and stuff no one needs. Give the legitimate organizations MONEY so they can procur the stuff that is needed, get it there, and distribute it properly.

Some morons actually sent coats to Haiti and stilleto-heeled shoes to Indonesia during the tsunami effort.

I'm sure the Scientologists will somehow self-righteously believe their help was essential and magnificent in the recovery process. Tommy Girl is probably ranting, as we speak, about their powerful healing energy bringing right to Haiti. Seriously.

Haiti is such a poor country..what would the Scientos want with Haitians? They go for the folks with the $$, and all the hundreds of thousands whose lives have been devastated have nothing to offer those criminals. If JT was simply bringing supplies, I would applaud this move, but to bring anyone associated with that fraud of a "church" is just sleazy.
