this really gets under my skin. apparently there has been a lack of officiating competency during a round of america’s pasttime, the spelling bee. according to cnn little sara had spelled discernible correctly, but was “rung up” by the judge. the officials are refusing to let her back in the competition because her parents waited to protest until after the bee was over. a flattering quote by sara’s mother speaks volumes:

Her mother, Cindy, calls herself a "momma bear with her bear claws out" and is ready to go to court

having been in bees when i was younger i know the towering highs and canyon-like lows of the sport. ending a career like this could be very damaging to little sara. but cindy has the right idea; the only thing more effective than a bear is a bear and a lawyer.
