News flash: Minnesota's Supreme Court has declared Democrat Al Franken the winner of the state's disputed U.S. Senate race.
Is this it, or do we go to a higher level?
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Depends on how badly Pawlenty wants to be President.

Is it wrong of me to want Palin to stay a public figure for the entertainment value?
Public figure = good
Public figure holding political office, whose decisions affect people = BAD

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The decision was unanimous. It would be hard for Pawlenty not to sign off on it.

Dana - ask to speak to a supervisor. It is amazing how some customer service agents can't think beyond the basic script.
In making some of the calls regarding my mom passing, I had one agent insist that she had to speak to my mom. I kept telling her that she had died but she insisted that I didn't have the authority to speak on her behalf without mom's permission. Uhhh, ok.

My guess is that it isn't over until the federal courts are done with it too.

You could put her on hold, come back and tell her you were the mom and instruct her that she needed to speak with her daughter due to her having passed recently. It could work. (that is a lot of feminine pronouns!)

Wow, Suzi, that is some impressive customer service cluelessness!

Does Coleman have the financial means to keep going? I haven't followed that closely, just notice when new decisions happen. What a fiasco.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

At this point, I am on my fourth customer service person. Three of them were when I called from the Minneapolis airport, including one supervisor. I have also filed a complaint by e-mail, and then told I had to mail them a letter.
They're so sorry for the inconvenience! Would I like a $50 credit etc etc etc. I don't have to use it right now!
