Sarah Palin's "Refudiate" Named Word of the Year

Sarah Palin may have been on the receiving end of quite a bit of mockery when she inadvertently coined the term "refudiate" last July, but now the former Alaska governor is getting her due - kind of. The New Oxford American Dictionary has named "refudiate" 2010's Word of the Year.

Palin introduced the term into the American lexicon last July when she used it in a Tweet about the proposed Islamic cultural center near the World Trade Center site in New York City. "Ground Zero Mosque supporters: doesn't it stab you in the heart, as it does ours throughout the heartland? Peaceful Muslims, pls refudiate," she posted on her Twitter account.

The message was removed from her Twitter page shortly after its posting, but Palin (who had also, it was soon discovered, used the word during a previous appearance on Fox News) defended her usage of "refudiate" in another Tweet: "'Refudiate,' 'misunderestimate,' 'wee-wee'd up.' English is a living language. Shakespeare liked to coin new words too. Got to celebrate it!"

Actually he has. He pronounced corpsman "corpse man".

I guess he commands the Marine Corpse too.
