“And
you quit footing the bill for these nations who are oil-rich, we’re
paying for some of their squirmishes that have been going on for

Mrs. Palin accomplishes many things unusual for a political speaker:
She recites the Arabic phrase for “God is great,” and, more notably,

wriggle the body from side to side) and skirmish (which means a brief
fight or encounter between small groups). Twitter embraced the new term
instantly.
