yes! email, email, email!
I dont do shit unless its in an email and I always throw out the disclaimer:
"OK, so just to double check, I recommend against this. I have your approval to proceed"
This works like a charm and I never get shit on... in a place where shit is thrown daily. Sure it comes off as a dick move, but I bet that feels better than the way you feel now. I've been there and nothing hurts more when someone throws you under the bus and you have nothing to back up your claims.
I feel for ya man.

Not the same issue, but I've been dealing with a client who is going against not only our best practices, but standard usage for search tools in web sites. Actually told me on a call this week "We hear what you're saying, we know you understand how people use this on a website. We disagree completely."
We're literally talking here about searches within a section not just returning results for that section, but all other sections of the site, which is so awful. That's what the site search is for. But they want it, so they get it. So, when you search news on the site, thinking you will just get news based on your criteria, you also get 6 other result sets, meaning you might not even go to the content you searched for, but something else. Strange...

- you mean filter... which does not actually filter because you don't have a "set" to filter when clicking the word.cannonball1978
