Good riddance

Thuggish Balkan dictator Slobodan Milosevic is dead. Good roundup of the news coverage at Slate. Personally, I'm glad he's dead, although it would have been nice to see him convicted.

I wonder how Bill Clinton is feeling these days. Of his greatest enemies, Saddam is on trial in a democratizing Iraq, Slobo just died in prison. Only Kim Jong-il is still at large and acting crazy. Well, him and Ken Starr.
