<<President Clinton said questions about his trustworthiness and credibility have not hindered his ability to run the Kosovo war but acknowledged his lack of military service has forced him to spend "major, major chunks of time . . . learning about how the military works." >>

That speaks volumes about Bubba. He has been CIC since January 1993, got our men killed in Somalia, forces deployed forever in Bosnia, bombed Iraq dozens of times, bombed Afghanistan, flattened an innocent pill factory in Sudan, sold our nuke program to the Chicoms and started a war and now wants to learn how the military works?

He should have used his early term studying the military instead of trim wrangling.

"It took too long," Mr. Clinton said. "It's one of my great regrets that it did take so long in Bosnia." He added: "We're acting far more quickly in Kosovo."

Another Clintonism. I assure you, people in policy conferences have been debating what to do about Kosovo for years. Everyone knew it was the key.
Otherwise, i can only think of Gilbert and Sullivan:"I am the very model of a modern major general..."
