Refudiation Round-Up
Gathered from our referrers page, here are some reactions to Sarah Palin’s now-famous “refudiate” post on Twitter.
Many people (but by no means all) seem to be focusing on Palin’s neologism, and missing the real point — the bigotry and hatred her statements on the so-called “Ground Zero mosque” endorse.

OK OK OK. Sarah Palin is an idiot. What are you accomplishing here? If you think America will be a better place when the corporatist democrats take over, you’re dreamin’. Identifying and writing about imbecilic politicians is a waste of your talents.
