<< Vicious?????I guess Clinton is gentle when he orders bombing of TV stations, trains, convoys, embassies in Kosovo??? Blinders off please. >>

No, Clinton showed himself to be a very strong leader by saving hundreds of thousands of innocent Kosovars from the brutal and savage Serbs forces. Good point!

<< She was stupid to follow that guy and it was criminal for putting her kid in such a danger! >>

Is it stupid to follow someone to freedom from slavery? Was it stupid for the East Germans to flee to freedom? Would you attempt to flee to freedom if your family was under a cruel dictatorship? Oh, don't worry about answering, you have already answered, that it was stupid.

<< These "relatives" did not rescue Elian, he was handed to them. >>

They have nursed Elian back to health and well being. Elian was pulled out of the water by Cuban brothers and friends. Why do you try to mislead by saying that he was "handed to them"? Won't your viewpoint stand on it's own merits?

<< Elian was taken against the father's wishes ... >>

Fortunately, many mothers risk their lives for the safety of their children. Thank God that Elian was taken from his father.

<< These relatives should be thrown in jail! >>

Why? Is it against the law to nurse a traumatized child back to health while his "absent" father, only 90 miles away, swills beer for 4 months?

If you feel that it IS against the law, perhaps I can understand while childcare is in such poor shape around the world.
