Do you have any idea how hard libel suits are? Do you know how many libel suits there are every year, and their sucess rates. I'd like to see the precentage of potentially libelous statements made to those that end up in courts.

Success wouldn't necessarily be the intended goal...merely the ruin of Free Republic, whether by winning or not.
