Ted, I've been on the receiving end of fruitcakes like her, and after a while, you try to get a supervisor on the line, or you hang up. Callers like her become unmanageable.

True. I'll never forget how Dogbert answered the question of one caller on a support line. "Take everything on your desk and put them into neat piles. Next, stand on your chair so that you can look over your cubicle wall. Now shout, 'DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO READ A MANUAL?'" I'm pretty sure lots of people who have to answer phones for a living wished they could say what Dogbert said.

Personally, I think if you're just going to snap back at a frustrated caller, a little originality can't hurt. Telling a very upset conservative that Bush and Cheney lied isn't very original, IMO.

That's why I asked you yesterday why you think so many people are against Bush/Cheney? What that means to you?

That one way or another, Bush and Cheney should start demonstrating some more leadership and stop fearing the polls (or the legislators who fear them).

Just happened to happen when the Vice President gave his speech? Not the segment before, not the one after?
Not one other program that day, or week.

Not the month before, not the year before.

Not since the turn of the century.

Not all 8 years of Clintoon.

Just happened to happen during Cheney's speech beating up the Dems.

Could be I suppose, if you like playing the lottery you may buy it.

I say... NOT BLOODY LIKELY.
