<<If these kids die, it will be on Bill Clinton shoulders. Our country sense of right and wrong is turned upside down.>>

Quite a tally our boy bubba has going for himself these days; beginning with hundreds of thousands of innocent Kurd and Shiite villagers, various wag the dog bombing campaigns, and now the infantry. Shees its starting to look like the extras in one of Reagans movies. I used to think he was a hollywood president. clinton has passed him up.

I was ambivalent about the termination of the draft, precisely because of the lack of full representation in the ranks. On the other hand, I never served, since I am not the military "type". In any event, I don't think that most leaders are so callous, but you are right that it might not come home to them in the same way...I still think that the operation will not run long enough to be "another Vietnam", but it may get bloodier, for sure...As for the IMF, we have been wasting money with the Russians for several years, and should have either stopped, or attached more stringent strings long ago...
