They say the virgin mary, I say it's a smudge.I'm pretty tired of seeing this Elian story go on and on, and apparently most people that read CNN think so too. It's funny, if a news story lasts more than a month, I can't even remember why I cared either way in the first place (see OJ, Iran-Contra Hearings, anything to do with Columnbine).

Hmmmm... So Elian told Diane Sawyer he doesn't want to go back to Cuba... Of course he wouldn't, if he believes his mother is still alive somewhere in Miami. I doubt that the boy's "freedom-loving" Miami relatives have done much to discourage that kind of thinking, do you? This kid's is doomed to be either the pawn of the current Cuban dictator or of a future one.
