“Slanderous Kook: I’m a Slander Victim”

That’s The Smoking Gun’s headline, and it does a nice job of summarizing the story of Larry Sinclair, a Minnesota man who first made (unsubstantiated) allegations of doing various illegal things with Barack Obama and who has now sued Obama, Howard Dean, and another fellow who I assume to be a DNC media person of some sort, for defamation. I note that the case, filed pro se, has been assigned to my judge. One of those days I don’t really miss clerking.
