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.

  1. I hate to admit it lme, but you were right. The media is unfairly tilted pro-Obama. You gave great examples of this last week and I took notice. When I went to ABC news this morning, what did I see for the headline article?

    This shit. 200 protesters. That's it. But ABC was sure to have it on the front page. Forget all the other things going on, they're sure they will get that on the front page for everyone to see. I'm a democrat, but I don't want the media influencing the vote. It's clear they are. Thanks
