Speaking of just making crap up -----Palin has a new word "refudiate"
Sarah Palin coins new word: 'refudiate'
The former governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin, has called on American Muslims to "refudiate" plans to build a mosque close to the site of the World Trade Center in New York.

When this was pointed out to Sarah Palin, she replied that English is a living language and even Shakespeare liked to coin new words.
