Re: Libel, slander or just bad form?

Given the diametrically opposed political views of both posters, I have to think the one who has quoted the other has done so in an admonishing manner. I won't, as usual, name names, but I do wonder how disingenuous it might be to write into one's signature a quote from another poster. Is it libel? Is it slander? Is it just bad form? Regardless, read some of today's political threads, and you'll see the quote this question refers to.

Thanks.

ask permission first. Tend to agree with that quote by the way.
