Unhappy 92 4.0L Overheating like crazy

Ok, so my Jeep has been acting fine for a while. It leaks oil, but I put oil in it whenever it gets low. So I get pretty good reliability from it until yesterday.

Yesterday I drive to the gas station that's about 1 mile away, and I have to sit there for like 10 minutes because this woman parks beside the pump and shops inside the store. So it pisses me off, but I don't think anything over it until I got home. I get home, and realize that the temp gauge is is the red. So I turn it off, and the Jeep is hissing and there's a liquid coming out of it at a pretty steady rate. I'm not sure what it was.

So I figure that I just sit still too long, and it overheated. I checked teh levels for the oil and coolant, and topped them off. Then I tried to go to work and got about a mile out of it again, with the same results. The fans kick in, but the engine isn't cooling down.

Any idea what it is?
