Sarah please tell me, what the blazes does "refudiate" mean?

I like refudiate. It’s what Republicans need to do to Creationists, and what Democrats need to do to Truthers. That is, they need to refute their factual claims and repudiate their politics.

In Palin’s case, though, it’s miserable to ask Muslims to repudiate the desire for a mosque near Ground Zero, and it’s meaningless to ask Muslims to refute that desire, since desires aren’t refuted.

Boy you are dumb. It means effin repudiate.

No, it’s not right–I would use “If I were ever to leave”–but I would never have held out hope for her to get something as high-falutin’ as that right. “Too” and “its” could be corrected by as little as a typo, so including them indicates that you’re adhering carefully to her style.

:wink:

Wow, I just thought she twittered it. I had no idea she had spoken it.

:eek:

And as long as we’re handing out points, the Turing SP can’t even get the spelling of its beloved home town right. :eek:

What i want to know, from that video, is whether Hannity:

a) didn’t realize that “refudiate” isn’t a word

or

b) caught it, but didn’t want to embarrass his golden girl.

If i had been conducting the interview, i would have told her that i was unfamiliar with the word, and asked her to explain its meaning to me.

“refudiate” = “I like Gin when I blog! {hic}”

Yep a typo. P and F are right next to each other on the keyboard. Easy mistake.

A friend of mine (R.I.P.) used to, in an effect to show how honorable and forthcoming he was, used to Freudianastically say, “When I make mistakes, I omit mine.”

Were you channeling my Rogers, Sarah?
