Politics : About that Cuban boy, Elian -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

I fear you are lost in the wilderness here. Not in dispute is that Elian has applied for asylum in the US and the 11th court of appeals stated in no uncertain terms HE HAS THAT RIGHT. You did not read their opinion very carefully. They granted the injunction for his removal from the US until his case has been heard. But that case may well be moot at this point. Have you bothered to observe that Elian is a minor? That Juan Miguel is his father. That the lawyer works for the Relatives and NOT Elian or his father? With Juan having SOLE custody of Elian, it is for Juan to decide, not the Relatives, how this asylum case is continued. Game, set and match. Before you ramble off in suggesting that this is some denial of process or representation please provide your suggestion for determining what the mind of a six year old little boy really is and what rights a father has with regard to that. When you come up with your proof of this claim, I will know unequivocably that you do not now, nor ever have had a little six year old son. Were you to undermine parental dominion, not only are you undermining the Bible when it says to obey thy Mother and thy Father, but you would be laying the basis for a tyranny of egomaniacs far worse than the loosing of the communist blight that you are so steadfastly resisting.

The Great Uncle claims the father asked him to take care of Elian. Please. This statement vitiates any standing that you would create for the Great Uncle. If you subscribe to the notion that the father can invite the Relatives to care for his son, then you have recognized his legitimate standing as the superior authority in the boy's life. By your very statement then the Great Uncle MUST STAND DOWN as well should the father request it.
