Refudiate that

The American version of the Oxford English Dictionary has declared Sarah Palin's Twitter word mashup refudiate not only a word but a Word of the Year.

I'm loving this. Not only did I instantly <3 the word, but I intensely disliked the way all the lefterati jumped all over her for not using proper English, as if they couldn't find anything ideological to criticize with dignity. She really knows how to run lefties apoplectic and I guiltily enjoy that. If they can't come up with anything better than that to get all Internetty over, then I think they got a lot of 'splaining to do.

Mainer, New Yawka, Beijinger, Californian, points between. News, views and ballyhoos that piqued my interest and caused me to sigh, cry, chuckle, groan or throw something.
