Can we pre-emptively threaten suit against RNC if they use
comments unfairly?

Comments made by say, Howard Dean on Iraq. They're taking his most recent comment out of context. They will try to Swiftboat him again, and to to Swiftboat every candidate running next year. Is there anyway we can pre-emptively stop them from suing this kind of commercial?

1. I don't see how such a lawsuit would be anything but an ..
attack on free speech, like it or not.

2. Isn't that the nature of all cases of defamation?

4. If they the GOP can "Swiftboat" Howard Dean they can have me
for immoral purposes. Dean will knock 'em on their cocks every time, and laugh at 'em while watching their poll numbers sink like a rock.
