“squirmish, huh? well, that’s either some sophisticated foreign policy -n-lysis, or what happens when worms get into a fight.” – jon stewart
the esteemed half term governor sarah palin created a new word for the american lexicon during an unsuccessful attempt to discredit u.s. president barack obama.

when the words squeamish and skirmish are combined, squirmish is born. a squirmish occurs when one party engages in a fight with another, but with fear, reserve, or lack of enthusiasm instead of bravado, possibly inferring a lack of courage.

using the word squirmish can be in and of itself a squirmish. for instance, instead of coming out and calling pres. obama a coward, palin used an inference of cowardice, thereby demonstrating what a half–ssed attack can look like, and thus a squirmish.
it was just a squirmish, sarah didn’t want to muss her hair-do.
