"Well, we do know that Hillary Clinton was on the side of sending Elian back to his father, and to Fidel and Cuban communism.
“I believe personally that this little boy should be with his father,” said Clinton in April 2000. At the time, the First Lady was running for the U.S. Senate seat in New York, where her opponent was Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who she accused of trying to “politicize” Elian. It was an amazing charge. Giuliani was defending Elian, not politicizing him.
More than that, both Giuliani and (ironically) even Vice President Al Gore supported legislation to grant Elian permanent resident status in the United States. Hillary Clinton not only opposed the legislation but accused Giuliani of “turning this young boy into a political football.”
Quite the contrary, it was Fidel who was playing football with the young boy—and with the Clintons. He kicked their butts up and down the field.
Three weeks after these Hillary comments, Elian was nabbed by the feds. Seven months later, the voters of Florida registered their protest at the ballot box—against Al Gore—even as Gore had been captive to the decisions of the Clintons'.. http://spectator.org/articles/65753/elian-gonzalez-travesty-where-was-hillary
