Sarah Palin said it tonight at the convention and I had to look it up, figured I’d share the results of my research.
n. A dealer in men’s furnishings.
We also learned that God issues oil drilling contracts in AK, who knew?

You’d never heard of Harry Truman being a haberdasher? Every teacher who ever mentioned him LOVED describing him thus. Annoyed the hell out of me.
Palin’s lines about Obama were pretty good. She’ll be fun to watch.
You gotta read more Dickens.
I believe David St. Hubbins once said that if he wasn’t a musician , he’d be a haberdasher.
Taco Joe,
I am not 100% positive but I believe that David St. Hubbins thought he might have ended up as a chapeau salesman. Do you recall what Saint Hubins is the saint of?
Nigel Tufnel: A salesman, like maybe in a, uh, haberdasher, or maybe like a, uh, um… a chapeau shop or something. You know, like, “Would you… what size do you wear, sir?” And then you answer me.
Do you dress to the left or to the right, sir?
If the linens are soiled, sir, I would suggest a good soaking overnight.
I’d just like to point out that this is now the #3 spot for “haberdasher” in Google.

Might I suggest a more delicate fabric for you, sir?
I would love to haberdash you, kind sir. Would you mind if I measured the length of your taint?
Ah yes, my bad. St. Hubbins of course was the patron saint of quality footwear.
“What’s wrong with being sexy?”
Duncan and Taco Joe,
You guys rock – as does Tap (England’s loudest band). It is great to know there are people who are embued with our cultural heritage.
