Here at Wonket, we are inordinately proud of the fact that we have never been sued for libel or defamation or any other version of journalism fuck-upping. Yes, Bradleeeeeee Dean threatened to sue us, but he does not count because he has a proven track record of being a weird loser overreacher who sues people for quoting him, which isn't really a typical defamation suit. ANYWAY, enough about us and how awesome we are. The point is just that if we can manage not to do this, it can't be all that hard to avoid. But maybe if we were Republican politicians, it would be harder, because the lying must just be inbred by now, and we would have to use this blog to just stone cold
Couldn&#039;t swear to it, but I&#039;ve heard District Judge John McAfee is a convicted pederast who hid out with teenage <a href="http:\/\/www.wired.com\/images_blogs\/threatlevel\/2012\/12\/ff_mcafee2_large.jpg" target="_blank">sex partners </a> in a secret compound in Belize. <a href="http:\/\/www.wired.com\/images_blogs\/threatlevel\/2012\/12\/ff_mcafee3_large.jpg" target="_blank">She</a> was there too.
He has a point: if nobody can read it, it ain&#039;t libel. We&#039;ll find out next election if the residents of Campbell County are the illiterate crackers he thinks they are.
&quot;I see how you could mess that up. It is what it is.&quot; Just the kind of judicial diligence that you want in a jurist who may decide to impose the death penalty in a murder case.
That was a Rottie? Looked like a chicken to me...
<strike>I have to say it, even thought it&#039;s awful: LIBEL LIBEL!</strike>
Bill beat me to it...

Then fled to South America?

We are attempting to confirm that the Representative, in fact, likes it in his <i>son&#039;s</i> inuendo.
I heard that StaceyCampfield ______________.
Go for it! If anything is proved wrong, we&#039;ll just take it down, later.
&quot;Wanna help instead of mock?&quot;
This is Wonkette, you know. Where mockery is the sincerest form of battery.
We&#039;ll play by Tennessee rules: remove it only if it&#039;s proved wrong.

Ehh ... shit happens.
Yeah, well I heard that Stacey Campfield is reasonably intelligent and thoughtful.
If I&#039;m wrong, well, this stuff happens.

wow.

<i>It is a dog-eat-dog world out there, and this stuff happens</i>
Ah, the old &quot;shit happens&quot; defense.
In the wingnut world, wishing something was true makes it just real enough to be an actual fact.
That McAfee is a gun nut, and could be a murderer.
