BB, I am simply not interested in trying to prove who has fought terrorism better...Clinton or Bush. ;-) I believe they are both themselves greater sponsors of terrorism than those they are fighting against, since they have both been in command of the world's # 1 terrorist administration over the last 15 years.

That is, of course, just one person's viewpoint...

We all talk here because we like to. It's as simple as that. It keeps our busy little minds occupied. If we weren't talking here we'd be engaging in some other habitual activity like drinking, having a coffee at the local coffee shop, watching TV, fighting with our marriage partners, yelling at the kids, manicuring the lawn and garden...whatever.

It's obviously of little bloody importance in the greater scheme of things what ANY of us has to say here, and don't I know it!...but we all like to do it, okay? It therefore IS its own justification. People complain about others who do it only when they don't agree with those others. As such, they'd be just as well off to complain about themselves doing it, wouldn't they? Self-importance and pomposity here is not limited to only those you happen to disagree with.
