Sarah Palin Is Our Lewis Carroll

Sarah Palin has taken a lot of heat for coining the word "refudiate" recently.  She was also ridiculed for citing Shakespeare's coining of words.

I think it would be more appropriate to compare her to Lewis Carroll, whose word Jabberwocky gave us the verb "chortle" (a cross between a chuckle and a snort).

We already know that Palin is a poet at heart.  Her tweets have been called "Alaskan beat poetry" and recited by Emmy-award winning thespian (and former Shakespearean actor) William Shatner.



There are plenty of reasons to criticize Sarah Palin's statements.  Her inventive language, however, should not be the focus of criticism.

What Will Sarah Palin Do Now?

Will she announce her run for the Presidency in 2012? Or will the former beauty queen and current defender of Family Values settle for being our generation's Anita Bryant?

The Resemblance Is Uncanny

Is Sarah Palin the secret love child of Anita Bryant? You be the judge...
