Sarah Palin Me Fail English

Sarah Palin, in a recent guest appearance on Fox News segments and through her Twitter account, asked Barack and Michelle Obama to “refudiate” implications that the Tea Party movement was racist. She also decided ‘misunderestimate’ and ‘wee-wee’d’ are valid English expressions and got angry when she was called out on her questionable use of non-words.

And Roger Ebert retorts:

Roger Ebert on Sarah Palins English

Coincidentally, does anyone else find it as funny as I do that the ‘we should only speak English’ Tea Party crowd typically can barely speak English themselves? Sarah Palin, case in point.


Text of Sarah Palins Tweet:

“Refudiate,” “misunderestimate,” “wee-wee’d up.” English is a living language. Shakespeare liked to coin new words too. Got to celebrate it!

Text of Roger Eberts Tweet:

Urgent to @SarahPalinUSA: Shakespeare would rather have died than “coin” the meaningless non-word “misunderestimate.”

I’m quite sure you mean “case IN point,” not “case AND point”, yes?
