Open Chat... All Day, Every Day! Express Your Views, Debate, and Challenge the Views of Others!

In order to keep up with the nature of free, spirited debate, I wanted to place the chat feature at the top of the homepage. This ensures people can come here and share their views on anything they wish and not have it be related to any specific discussion. Here, people can share ideas, links, and views "unmoderated" and an their own pace. To me, this makes The Elephant in the Room blog truly a place for debate.

Today's Morning Headlines

This is an experimental thread. If it works, perhaps it might be something that is implemented into our daily posts. We want to give readers more options and more sources of information and a central place to obtain it.  This is merely a collection of 3-5 daily news articles and links with a brief summary preceding each link. Please let us know your thoughts. Feedback really helps. Thank you.

  1. Wow, December was not as strong as initially reported? Is it just me or do the numbers seem to be revised downward NEARLY every month. It seems that the pattern is; report an inflated number, talk all month about how things are getting better, then revise it downward and make excuses for 0bama.

    And for all you die hard 0bama excuse makers, please do not even reply with the "HE inherited an economy in a downward spiral" drivel. That was over 3 years ago he inherited that. For God's sake, at least come up with a new excuse, that one is about wore out. I need a good laugh, so blame it on the ATM's, kiosks, Arab Spring and the tsunami in Japan if you feel the need to lay an excuse out for the Commander in Chief.
