This just in: Sarah Palin is the new Shakespeare.
From The Washington Post:
Palin invents word 'refudiate,' compares herself to Shakespeare
She later deleted the tweet and posted a new one with refudiate changed to refute, which is... also wrong in this context.
My favorite comment: "Oh that her too, too solid flesh would melt." Win!
Palin invents word 'refudiate,' compares herself to Shakespeare
By Matt DeLong
The Twittersphere erupted Sunday when former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin tweeted that "peaceful Muslims" should "refudiate" the mosque being built in New York City near where the Twin Towers once stood. Palin found herself the butt of many tweets, as refudiate, of course, is not a word in the English language.
She later deleted the tweet and posted a new one with refudiate changed to refute, which is... also wrong in this context.
