This reminds meof a line from the start of Penn and Teller's Bull****. Basically they said that they couldn't call any of the people fraudsters, conmen or tricksters because that could get them sued. Calling them ****ers, bastards or bull****ters however is a first amendment right which doesn't fall under the libel or slander laws.

I guess that means that this case is going nowhere.

HOMER
Oh, I can't believe it, I got an enemy. Me, the most beloved man in Springfield.

MOE
Ah, it's a weird world, Homer. As hard as it is to believe, some people don't care for me, neither.

HOMER
No, I won't accept that.

MOE
Nah, it's true. I got their names written down right here on what I call my, uh, "enemies list."

Moe reaches under the bar and brings out a piece of paper. Barney reads it.

BARNEY
Jane Fonda, Daniel Shore, Jack Anderson... hey! This is Richard Nixon's enemies list. You just crossed out his name and put yours.

MOE
Okay, gimme that, gimme it back. (writes on the paper) Barney Gumble.

So, if hypothetically I was to say that "that elephant **** shovelling shyster should get nothing"  He could sue me too?  Scary.

Seems to me I should be able to sue somebody about that "overly robust geezer" bit.
