Palin Says Refudiate Appears in Fictionary: Calls Critics Incohecent

Share Comment

WASILLA, Alaska (The Borowitz Report) — Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin defended her use of the word "refudiate," telling her critics, "Look it up in the fictionary."

While claiming that "refudiate" is a real word, she reserved her right to make up new words in the future.

"Everyone makes up words — Shakespeare, George W. Bush, Levi Johnston," she said. "The only person I know who doesn't do it is my husband, Todd, who doesn't speak."

Gov.

Palin also lashed out at those who criticized her use of the word "refudiate," calling them "incohecent."

In a related story, Gov. Palin would defeat President Barack Obama if she ran in 2012, according to a poll published in Mayan Prophecy Weekly.

Refudiate is an excellent example of a portmanteau, combining refute and repudiate. Palin bashers have to dig for ways to try and discredit Sarah. Yet, they blithly accept "corpse-man" from the supposed "most intelligent man, ever, in the universe".
