'Don't Palinize me for raising funds,' says Minnesotan Republican
Washington, Aug.14 (ANI): A new word has entered the American political lexicon - Palinize!
Minnesota Republican Michele Bachmann is tossing around this new verb, according to Politico.
How does one define "Palinize"? Well, according to Bachmann, Palinize would include the following:
(1) To smear or mock someone using falsehoods, baseless accusations or unsubstantiated character assassinations for the purpose of blocking them from achieving a goal.
(2) To exaggerate the truth or lie by omission and
(3) To attack a person for his or her conservative values by focusing an inordinate amount of attention on a single example of that person falling short (or being perceived as falling short) of the values they espouse.
In the subject line of a fundraising pitch, Bachmann has been sending out a plea for money by saying, "Don't let them Palinize me!" (ANI)
