Vote card sent to dead president

A vote card being sent to a dead president reminds us that Milosevic is larger than life.
He will continue to be used for better or for worse, we can all count on that!

Milosevic, the Montenegrin from the tribe of the Vasojevici had too strong a backbone, that the likes of Holbrook or Albright could not break.

Or maybe it was just a case where Milosevic hadn't been deleted from the Dedinje database? Maybe the government couldn't afford to hire someone to go in and purge the names of the recently deceased? I agree that Milosevic's legacy still looms large, but I think that's common with most dictators -- especially those who play a critical role in the destruction of a country. Sloba might have been a recalcitrant Montenegrin, but defying Holbrooke and Albright really culminated in Serbia's loss of its beloved Kosovo-Metohija, the unnecessary death and destruction of countless lives (including Serbs')from 1997 to 1999, and his eventual indictment and extradition to the Hague, where he died so valliantly in his cell. Milosevic was lucky enough to be taken off the hook in 1995 after begging the West to force a peace in BiH, where his almighty and powerful Serbs were on the brink of being overrun by the Muslim-Croat Federation, just as their brethren had been in Krajina two months before...you know, the Serbs whom Milosevic had completely abandoned after pushing them into war in 1991? Oh, and weren't those the same Serbian soldiers who were rounded up and beaten by the forces serving under another Montenegrin, Arkan, at the end of their exodus out of Krajina? Yeah, that's right. Arkan's men punished them for failure to hold the line in Operation Storm, then sent them off to Erdut to be "re-trained" before being shipped back to the front. I wonder, did Arkan know how to do math? Did he realize that 20,000 (or more) Western-trained-and-equipped Croats against 4,000 poorly-equipped and utterly demoralized Serbs would add up to a ridiculous rout? Wow, Milosevic was one heck of a guy! Here was a man who had the incredibly good fortune to be hailed as a peace-maker after starting and losing three wars in four years, then astonishingly threw it all away because he refused to be rational in his handling of KiM -- his fourth lost war of the decade. Milosevic had a backbone, alright, and it's lying in his backyard in the grand town of Pozarevac, along with the rest of his bones...probably immediately next to those of the family cat.
