Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama -- already making history as the first African American presidential nominee of a major American political party -- may make history again in a way he'd rather not like to make it: As the first presidential candidate to take an author to court, The 'Skeeter Bites Report has learned.

Jerome Corsi's newly-published book, The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality, is filled with accusations and innuendo against the Illinois senator that were long ago proven false -- constituting a "reckless disregard for the truth" and grounds for the Illinois senator to sue Corsi for libel and defamation, according to a source close to the Obama campaign.

Corsi -- who made a name for himself four years ago when he co-authored an innuendo-filled book against 2004 Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry's military service -- candidly admits he wrote his newest tome with the explicit aim of ensuring Obama's defeat in November.

If for no other reason than firing a shot across the bow.

Enjoy your dirty GOP money while you can Corsi.

I don't think a suit will happen but if it escalates the discreditation of Corsi, I'm all for it.

Make it clear to Corsi either he admits publicly his book contains falsehoods or they are going to sue the pants off him. Then, if Corsi doesn't back down which, I suspect he won't, follow through.

the publishers of this easily debunked garbage.

he had BETTER sue.

definitely be included as parties. Threshold should be discredited and shamed as much as Regan Books was and Matalin should be publicly reamed for allowing it to go forth, just like Judith Regan was.

But talking about the possibility is genius. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.

The word False will be totally attached to the book title.

Corsi deserves this.
