This little internet libel case looks like the sort of thing that might amuse crankynick and other with an interest in the intersection of the internet, politics, and human folly. I'm particularly amused by the jury being asked to rule on whether being called 'one cherry short of a Schwarzwalderkirschtorte' constitutes libel, and (via Update 3 to that post) the phrase '“rabbits-are-eating-my-face” mad'.
