Alex Jones versus Piers Morgan

It made me sick watching Alex Jones being interviewed by Piers Morgan on CNN.Was it even an interview? Was it even a fair debate about the gun issue in U.S.A.? All the time,I saw Alex Jones keep yelling and ranting, almost non-stop, while Piers Morgan continued to stay calm.Alex Jones behaved like a mad man,being so rude and aggressive.He called Piers Morgan a foreigner,not an American, and told him to go back home to U.K. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alex Jones has a radio show called Info Wars, and has his own Alex Jones YouTube Channel.He has a large audience.His conspiracy theories are actually quite interesting.Some of them may even be true,I mean they are facts,not theories.I am not here to tell you to believe or disbelieve what Alex Jones said.I am just giving you my thoughts and comments,more particularly about his recent appearance with Piers Morgan on CNN. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I am guessing that Alex Jones is either a mentally-disturbed man, or he is an excellent actor, speaker and super salesman. Not being a psychiatrist,I do not know whether he is normal or not.He reminds me of the fire-hell, crazy and very emotional televangelists and preachers of the old days, many of whom have disappeared from the T.V.screen by now. Of course, Alex himself claims to be absolutely normal.He did a demonstration in YouTube yelling,ranting,showing his tight fist,rolling his eyes,getting very emotional and angry, and was ready to fight.He then said his behavior was all normal.David Icke,another conspiracy theorist,is much calmer.There you go: 2 different brands: the didactic and reasonably calm David Icke, and the crazy and paranoid Alex Jones. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I feel sorry for Piers Morgan, having to interview Alex Jones.However,that is his job, to interview all kinds of different people, including the good, the bad and the ugly.Piers, you are a gentleman. Alex, you are not.

Refudiate

Is 'Refudiate' an English word ? Pretty Ma Ma Sarah Palin has just coined this new word, but what does it really mean ? I don't know.

What did Sarah Palin mean when she used this word for the very first time in public ? To refuse ? To reject ? To refute ? To repudiate? What is the use to create a new word which we don't know how to use ?

I don't like the sound of 'Refudiate', unless we change it into a Spanish word 'Re-fu-dia-te', but would the Spanish-speaking people accept it ? I doubt it. Well, at least it would mean something, sort of, like " Hey you, it is the Day of the Refugees!"

Sarah Palin is not alone. George Bush once used a non-existing English word 'Misunderestimate'. Did he mean to combine 'Misunderstand' and 'Underestimate' and turn them into one word ? Was he that clever ? I don't think so. Palin and Bush are not Shakespeare. I don't support the formal recognition of their newly coined words 'Refudiate' and 'misunderestimate' as acceptable English words.The sounds of the two words are not good and the meanings are unclear.If you are a professor in the English language, please tell me your opinion.

Eighty nine years ago, in 1921, U.S. President Warren Harding coined the word 'Normalcy' in his speech, instead of saying 'Normality'. I learned about this from a Professor in U.S. History. Now, it is normal to say Normalcy. I think this is O.K., because the sound of Normalcy is good, and the meaning is clear.

I propose the meaning of 'Refudiate' as " No No No. I don't know. Don't say anything against me. Say everything against anything which I am against."

Let's get rid of all the 'misunderestimation' and return to 'Normalcy', shall we ?
If you say 'No', I'm going to 'refudiate'. Puke !
