In Defensity of Sarah Palin

Former Vice Presidentiary candidate Sarah Palin recently twat about her desire to see Muslims "refudiate" the actions of their violentistic brothren. When challengers predeigned to question her verbial usage, she proclared herself an inventress of words, colining herself with no less auspecial a wordsmith than Shakespeare. She also encited George W. Bush's "misunderestimate" as a speculant examplar of the reclectorance of the English Language.

This is all, of course, in perfect cocordance with Republican trendition, if not outforth policy. Admittery of any mistake, no matter how trivetal can not be expoused lest weakness be percepted. This prejunction of confluencies does not enrupt, of course from any real comprestanding of psochoactric sciences, but rather from the villianification of intellectuism, the disenvaluing of educationative endeavings and, of course, the enchantalizing of ignoracy that has provasivily influcted our society; a strict encountability to dictionarial vocabulism enotes a tendery to factive adherence and pompish philosophorism. How would that put a person in good steading with those who decry out for common sense governencing?

I think it is time we all stop unliking Ms. Palin for her lack of acumenity and her enthuseistic abracing of folksiness that presigns as stupidity. She is, after all, only doing what her party asks of her, only being what her supporters want her to be.

Frankly, I have no dog in this fight. I'm just doing my part to forwardize bipartisal civilism.

Bravado, Sir Brody. Your uproarial take, on the nonsensiou­s blabbings of the forlorn Gubernator of the 51st state (the honorous state of Unaware...­it's below Delaware) had me rofling like something that I can't think of that rofl's a great deal. On another note...

Played any poker lately? I'm itching for a live game...

Fernela, my little Marklet, thanks for the kind words about the piece.

Mostly when I play these days it's on line. I occasional­ly go to the bike for one of their regular tourneys. Set up a game and I'm IN!

OMG, what does anyone care what she thinks about the ground zero mosque plan? Why is her opinion even considered relevant? OMG---just saw the headline above "Bloomberg and Palin agree to disagree about the mosque." Does she live in NY? Is she the governor of NY? Who gives a flying toad what that woman thinks?

She is miracoloss­ally multiple tonguerous­, she knows Wasilla Glossolali­a:
"Glossolal­ia or speaking in tongues is the fluid vocalizing (or, less commonly, the writing) of speech-lik­e syllables, often as part of religious practice. Though some consider these utterances to be meaningles­s, those that use them consider them to be part of a holy language."

"Multiple tonguerous­" fills me with delect! Thanks for that.

Wasn't sure what to expect when I saw this article. Almost gave it a pass as I usually don't waste my time on SP. Sure am glad I came to read it. Thanks Dylan. :-)

Sarah keeps her verbage persistant with those there who live in less than idyll circumspec­ts.

I'm delighted when the comments carry the tone of the piece! Nicely done.

It's one thing if she made up the word for her twit but she didn't she just used a word she thought was real because she thought she sounded smart...sh­e thought wrong

I agree, Chi-town

It's kind of like what her speeches would sound like once she's president, like the one in "Idiocracy­." At her press conference­s, she'll come on stage firing her shotgun in the air and swinging a dead goose, wearing a cheerleade­r's outfit, gently scooting her grandbabie­s across the floor with her cowboy boot, out of her way, with a big plug of chew in her cheek and she'll spit hard on the floor before she starts yelling the words above.

You say "once she's president,­" as though that's a foregone conclusion­. I find this more than a little bit terrifying­.

As the media currently seems to be intimidate­d by the Palinbots and has decided to play softball with Sarah Palin, it can very well happen. "Saint Sarah" won't go away, and she will run for President. We can all just pray that the media will then start to look at the "real Sarah" again.

On the plus side, IF she becomes Pres, she won't serve more than two years before getting bored and quitting.

Ah, c'mon libs. The English language is like the Constituti­on. It's living and breathing, ever changing with the modern times. Give her a break - she's a progressiv­e wordsmith. You should champion her desire to expand the language, to "reform" it from it's oft confusing idiosyncra­sies. That's what reform is all about.

[Dylan Brody]

05:35 PM on 07/24/2010

Actually, I agree that the English language is living and breathing like the Constituti­on. The primary thing I mock in my piece is her unwillingn­ess to acknowledg­e an error. She was NOT, in fact, deliberate­ly inventing a word. She got a word wrong and then refused to simply admit the error. True reform is not about blindly following a mistaken turn in the road, it is about choosing which turns to take.

Well said...as was your whole post. (I had to wait until I stopped laughing to read the comments.)

[MyResponsibility]

08:16 PM on 07/24/2010

It is funny, I don't take her too seriously. And I, too, agree that she wasn't inventing a word. We all know what she was trying to say. But then again, Obama was the one who called a corpsman a corpse-man­. I missed your story about that one. Can I find it in the HP archives?

That was painful to read but really funny

Thank you very much. Painful but funny works for me. In fact, it describes much of my sex life.

Wow. THAT was.......­well, I'm speechless­....and still laughing.

I do love it when people laugh! Thanks, Steph.

Reading this left you speechless­? Do you think we can make Sarah read it?
