Yogi is wrong and voices the extreme views obviously motivated for political gain, as review of his previous postings indicate. He voices the "anticastro" mentality without a thought that the position he advocates insults not Castro, but any ordinary person such as Elian and his father. Yogi calls the father a coward yet fails to provide any reason other than that the father could not have taken less than 4 months to pick-up his son. He calls the father a coward because the father refused to confront the anti-castro factions in Miami poised to create another public relations stunt there. Yogi appears to believe that anyone opposing the extented family's kidnappiing of Elian is a communist or a Castro lover, even the people who are firm believers of a strong father-son family relationship. He advocates that anyone would be better to take care of Elian only because Elian's father favors Cuba over Miami. Frankly, if Yogi voices the anticastro mentality, I don't blame the father one bit that he perfers Cuba to the political fascism expressed by Yogi. Yogi is at best mistaken and at worst a provocator. In the end, his postions show the extremes that certain members of the anticastro movement in Miami and hurts the cause. Next Yogi will be promoting death or concentration camps for anyone opposing the anticastro mentality, or perhaps being branded on the forehead.
