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.

    Why is it we have money for Afghanistan but we don't have money to "...to build a high-tech system to alert folks when errors are made." Another bang up job of prioritizing federal spending and grants there federal government. How about you protect the citizens of the US first! We are all tired of this nonsense.

      Liberal rant much? What in the world are you talking about? How does it relate to anything? Thanks for this irrelevance.
