"Ew, you called me a name so I'M SUING.  WAAAAH." is what this amounts to.  Seriously, GROW THE SPORK UP!  If anyone thinks we're heavy-handed at times, this is what happens when people don't moderate their message boards.  This is just one more reason we don't put up with personal attacks here.  It really can lead to this kind of crap.

The story is vague, but libel suits have been won for less.

gameskeeper: ted kennedy went to law school what does that tell you.

sadly in my beloved california we live mostly under the iron fists of far leftist democrats ( of course we do have some republicans mostly in southern california and of course the govenator ) and democrats bow to every growing bullshit lawsuit lawyer sect the same way republicans cringe for big energy companys. ( you will notice practically every democrat in the country is a former lawyer while practically every republican is a former buisness man)
