>>I don't find it particularly "self-righteous" to request that the messages on a Kosovo message board stay on topic....neither is it the "Ooh Ooh I Found Another Juvenile Name to Call Clinton" board.<< Spare me from such haughty, stuffy, PHONY, self-righteousness. Don't tell me you've never heard the word, or used it yourself. It's a common piece of the adult lexicon, and I'm sure your oh-so-tender tender ears aren't going to melt. Stop hiding behind your Juvenile feigned offense; it's obviously the opinion that you disagree with, and that's too flippin' bad. Frankly, I can't think of a more apt description for someone who has acted as ineptly and irresponsibly as he has in this mess.

<<I don't find it particularly "self-righteous" to request that the messages on a Kosovo message board stay on topic rather than degenerating to a mixture of old war stories and puerile attacks on the President>> I havent read an egregiously off topic post yet. Clinton's inadequacy for the job certainly does bear on this crisis, and posts concerning the readiness and mindset of the US military as well. There's a lot more to be discussed than "feel their pain" squishiness. I have thoroughly enjoyed each and every post to this board, even those which I patently disagree with. Everyone here has contributed to the discussion of the wide scope of this conflict which goes far past the borders of Kosovo. I object to your insinuation that the intelligent and concerned people posting here are merely "babbling."
