OSPF issue

I have a lab emulating our actual environment at work. The actual technology is metro Ethernet, but in this lab, each device is interconnected via a regular L2 switch. I am having an issue...

Background:

sl-ce is headquarters.
fa-ce and qs-ce are remote sites
colo-ce is a test site/hot site

The issue:
colo-ce is advertising sl-ce's routes to fa-ce and qs-ce. Thus forcing fa-ce and qs-ce to route through colo-ce, in order to get to sl-ce. I can't figure out why this is happening. I even did a cost of 5 to the colo-ce.

anyone?

    from qs-ce:

    qs_ce#sho ip route
    Codes: C - connected, S - static, I - IGRP, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
    D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
    N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
    E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP
    i - IS-IS, su - IS-IS summary, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2
    ia - IS-IS inter area, * - candidate default, U - per-user static route
    o - ODR, P - periodic downloaded static route

    From your neighbour relationships, it looks like everything is coming up as point-to-point. Can you do a sh ip ospf interface and a sh ip ospf database on all 4 routers?

    Get rid of neighbor statements and make your central site router DR (if that was your plan) - ip ospf priority 255 and clearing the adjacencies. Also what is the actual metro ethernet physical topology?
