And still can't pay their troops to guard them, or their techs to maintain them.

War fears put British troops on standby as Kosovo declares 'freedom' | the Daily Mail

This crap has been going on since the late 1300's.

Well, in this case. It would be an Albanian starting the war.

Neither can we. We have to borrow from China.

Or less qualified than GW Bush of which, pinheads like you voted for TWICE!!!

Lets take trip back down memory lane....when pundits asked Bush about his lack of experience shortly after the Supreme Court installed Bush into the W.W., and Bush's reply was that he would SURROUND HIMSELF with Administrative cabinet members who has "THE FUCKING EXPERIENCE"!!

Hypocritical Realist1, Bush's plan to surround himself with experience....seemed to sit well with you and your ILK back in 2000!

Now all of a sudden conservatives SHILLs like you are Yelling "Fire" in a crowed room!!!!

Obama, will do the same as Bush when it comes to the experience factor. If it was good enough for Bush, it will be just fine for Obama as well.

Look Rasta, you've made it obvious you're voting for Obama. I can see it now. You'll be in the front row of his next his "Change" speech, and swoon over his every word...

I can't wait to see a Montage made of every Liberal twit getting their panties wet over him. Oh,,,and by the way, Hillary still has the Super delegate Card to play. Talk about Back Room Politics in action.

Take care Rasta.

Albanian,,,Croat,,,Serb,,,Montenegro,,,It's all the same thing to me. Almost a 1000 years of blood shed over Religion, and hate for crap that happened since before the Ottoman Empire decayed away...

Such as useless waste of Life and Time.

Take care Sat.

Well, the people wanted to run themselves. I would side with them on this. It would be denying our own American heritage to do so.

I agree, a lot of the problems in Eastern Europe are trivial and just ancient bigotry and left overs of feudalism from the countless wars and interventionism from the Ottomans, Russians, Germans, and Austrians.

It is a waste, I see no reason why Serbia should kick up a fuss about it. The people have spoken.

I see "The People" of that part of the World continuing the slaughter of each other. And Russia, the E.U., and the U.S. getting drawn into it....

The Balken Region has been an area of contention for hundreds of years. For the Life of me, I can't see why...

Take care.
