A Florida Congresswoman has been palinized.
Palinized. pronunciation: PAAY-lyn-eye-zd. transitive verb. etymology: Alaskan; earliest roots in Idaho, circa 1964.
1) gripped by fear of humiliation due to words spillin' incontrollably out of one's own mouth;
2) frozen by intense fear of spewin' disconnected words without punctuation while winkin';
3) petrified of interviews, calls, questions that require response without a teleprompter.
variations: palinization, palinizer
Member? Those French-Canadian comedians called Palin pretending to be the French President. "I just love killing those animals...take away life, that is so fun....From my house, I can see Belgium." She never caught on.
Congresswoman Ros-Lehtinen was palinized when President-Elect
Obama called her today. So she hung up on him. When the President Elect's Chief of Staff-to-be called her back to say what gives, talk to the guy, she hung up on him, too.
The Congresswoman issued a press release to explain. She said when she finally took the call, she told the President-Elect that South Florida radio stations joke an awful lot. Obama let her know that they make prank calls in Chicago, too.
A faint, mild Whew! to her. Poor thing.
ps. The Congresswoman's press release misspelled BARAK's name. And then misspelled the Chief of Staff's name, too.
