So this is the "I know what is best for you and I'm going to make you live that way" argument? Do you realize how antithetical to freedom that IS? You cannot force people to be free and be for freedom. You are a dictatorial hypocrite. I LOVE my freedom. I wish everyone wanted to live the way we do. I wish everyone did live the way we do (although, of course, we then wouldn't have the standard of living we have now- the earth simply couldn't support everyone living in such luxury). But YOU are willing to imprison someone in this country in order to be free. When you talk about Elian's "rights" you MEAN the right he has to do what YOU think he should do. Not the right to make any choice. And he should make the choice- whatever it is, even if it is to drop his asylum claim. If he wants to be state property in Cuba a true freedom lover would give him that choice. You mouth the words of freedom but do not comprehend them.
