Legally Actionable?

Instapundit:
QUESTIONS FOR THE CLASS: ‘Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, Who Cares? . . . Call Them Racists’. Is this quote from Spencer Ackerman evidence of actual malice? Could it be invoked in a future libel case against Ackerman or his employer to show a habit of recklessness? Would you hire someone who had made statements like that as a journalist? If you did so, would that be evidence of reckless disregard?
It is about time that the MFM faced the music.

As I keep saying, the "liberals" are *jealous* of conservatives, with our lone "vast right-wing conspiracy" ... because all their conspiracies always turn out to be merely half-vast.

It appears that iVRWC > x(VLWC/2) for all values of 'x' -- it appears that one imaginary "vast right-wing conspiracy" is greater than any number of "half-vast left-wing conspiracies."
