Sarah Palin Invents New Word: 'Refudiate'
If there's one thing that's wrong with the English language, it's that there just aren't enough words. Luckily for all of us, former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin invented a new one this weekend, and then compared herself to Shakespeare.

buy refudiate mugs, tshirts and magnetsWhen Sarah Palin decides regular English words aren't good enough, she'll just go ahead and make a new one. Here, Refudiate bridges the gap between refuse and repudiate , to mean exactly what she wants it to mean.
The President and his wife ... they can refudiate what this group (the NAACP) is saying. - Sarah Palin, on F-F-Fox News
