Very well said, Karen ... like you say in your first post here - Message 13481208 .. there is a clear choice in the question between basic human family law principles or partisan politics ... it is the same point made by Juan Miguel ... here are his words followed by translation - [Estoy pidiendo al pueblo americano] "Que se olviden de la pol¡tica, que se den cuenta que Eli n es un ni¤o de 6 a¤os como cualquier otro ni¤o que necesita del amor y la compa¤¡a de su verdadera familia", manifest¢. [I am pleading to the american people] "That they forget politics, that they realise that Eli n is a child of 6 years like any other child who needs the love and company of his true family" Message 13474341 Nobody needs a position on either right-wing or left-wing whackos to hear that. Mi hijo punto.

<< I understand that the Cuban exiles suffered incredibly at the hands of Castro. >> Suffered and still suffer. << Where they don't all agree with the exiles is in the view that Castro hatred trumps every other emotion, every other principle, every value, every law in the known universe. >> No, no, no and, if you missed the first three no's, NO! Those that profess hatred for the Miami Cuban Exiles, and use nasty, dirty names and insults to describe the Exiles, don't even consider the Exile "monolithic view". For what ever reason they have, they just hate the Miami Cuban Exiles. The haters' words speak for themselves. However, I am not calling all dissenters on this thread racists or hate-mongers. How can you deny the Miami Exile Community "perpetually reinforcing their monolithic view"? They are in a state of war with Castro. As long as Castro continues to cause unforgivable suffering for the Cuban people, the Miami Cuban Exiles "must" be united against him. When you are at war, with someone who would destroy you, you can't give your enemy and inch.
