Sarah Palin, in a recent guest appearance on Fox News segments and through her Twitter account<\/a>, asked Barack and Michelle Obama to “refudiate” implications that the Tea Party movement was racist<\/a>. 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.<\/p>\n

And Roger Ebert retorts:<\/p>\n

\"Roger<\/center><\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n


\nText of Sarah Palins Tweet<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“Refudiate,” “misunderestimate,” “wee-wee’d up.” English is a living language. Shakespeare liked to coin new words too. Got to celebrate it!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Text of Roger Eberts Tweet<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Urgent to @SarahPalinUSA: Shakespeare would rather have died than “coin” the meaningless non-word “misunderestimate.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
