What is "elian"

Usage examples of "elian".

Maybe between happy reminiscences about the good old days of Ruby Ridge, Waco, and the Elian Gonzales raid, Ben-Veniste could ask Gorelick about those guidelines.

After all the nonsense that was reported about the Elian Gonzalez case, the truth is breathtaking.

Liberals were obsessed with Elian Gonzalez from the moment he arrived on our shores.

Sending Elian back to Cuba had become a cause celebre bigger than defending Alger Hiss.

Liberals lost 300 million people when their beloved Soviet Union was defeated by Ronald Reagan, but Elian gave them a chance to grab one back!

If only Elian had knocked over a liquor store and maybe pistol-whipped an old lady in the process, we could have kept him, by golly!

Alas, Elian was not infected with a dread disease, or perhaps they would have spoken up for him, too.

The main point was: Cuba was a glorious socialist paradise and Elian was goddamn lucky to live there!

INS agents did not demand a list of books Elian had checked out of the local library!

Reno gamely noted that the photo proved that the agent pointing a machine gun at Elian did not have his finger on the trigger.

Unfortunately for Elian, his father lived in Cuba, a place liberals admire, in contradistinction to a tacky state like Ohio.

What is absolutely uncontested is this: Instead of going to Miami to retrieve Elian himself, Juan Miguel allowed a federal SWAT team armed with submachine guns to stage a military-style assault on his son in Miami.

Reno, in her Solomonic wisdom, had decreed that Elian be cut in two so one half could be returned to Cuba and the other half remain here.

In point of fact, the courts largely ruled in favor of keeping Elian here in the United States.

Liberals assumed that if the case was treated as a child custody matter, the Florida courts would order Elian sent back to Cuba to be with his biological father.
