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.

    Re: Hobby Lobby - This administration has issued 'waivers' for giant blocks of 'groups/individuals' from unions to whole sections of 'certain legislators' constituents.

    These progressive jokers claim to be all about 'fairness'.. so why not issue Hobby Lobby a 'waiver'?

    Because this administration and its ilk are the MOST DIVISIVE in the history of our nation... and Hobby Lobby is NOT one of 'them'!

    Re: Publishing the map w/gun owner's addresses:

    I wonder if the FOOL(S) who dreamed that one up even THOUGHT ABOUT the possible 'unintended consequences' of their stupidity...

    I mean, really, if I were a burglar/rapist/home invader/murderer I think I'd most likely BYPASS those homes that were DESIGNATED as being armed.

    Liberalism truly IS a mental disorder.
