<< I believe you could give Fidel a lesson in bullsh*t. >>

Nothing I say can come close to Fidel's phoney "revolution".

But, speaking about bullshit......... you refer to Elian's life saving rescue as a kidnapping. You can see by the news that Elian seems more than happy with his present living conditions. And that wasn't easy! Elian endured a life threatening ordeal and witnessed his mother die. That experience could destroy a child. But, fortunately, Miami relatives and friends volunteered to help him, and to give him love and support, and sacrificed themselves, because they saw that Elian's father did nothing, and something had to be done quickly to save the child.

The Cubans in Miami are putting the rest of the country to shame by showing that they care about this brave little boy, while the rest of the country wants to send him back to an evil empire.

<< They remind me of mafiosa lawyers. Come to think of it, they are working for the "mob". >>

Yeh, sure. Their loving actions for this littlest victim of Castro's tyranny really reminds you of the mafiosa. If this represents the mafiosa, I'd hate to hear how you feel about the boy scouts! <g>

Elian's mother, in Heaven, should still have a say over who has custody of Elian. Since we know that she wanted the boy to stay with her in the U.S.; and since Elian's father basically gave up custody by not coming to Elian's side when Elian might have been suffering life threatening injuries, the only just decision is to allow Elian's mother to watch over her son in the U.S.
