Please explain what specific information is libel and what specific
advertisement you're refering to.

Calling a political figure or other well known individual a "misleader,"
as in the $87b ad is not libel because it represents an opinion of a
public figure.  If this were libel, Rush Limbaugh would have been
imprisoned eight years ago as he was calling for the impeachment of
Clinton.
