I remember at that time a Senator urged the family to go to a church and stay there. That the government could not come in there....

You're right; the government could not go into a church. However, following the law -- and moral imperatives, for that matter -- never seemed to be high on the agenda of the Clinton administration. The Feds would probably have gone into the church to get them.

You're probably right about Clinton. He never respected the law and only respected God and church when he knew there was a camera nearby. Too bad the family didn't take his advice though. If you think those pics of Elian's terror on his face were mind boggling, can you imagine seeing pictures of guns going into a church to take a little boy out!
