Oh yes they do.

If he did not mean to imply that, that’s his own heart and no one can say ... but that’s what he did imply. It was extremely creey and Sharia-like.

Like I said, his best defence is that he is just stupid ... too stupid to run for Senator.
He doesn’t strike me as a person who would admit that.

No, you inferred it. Sorry, but you are simply incorrect about the meaning of the word "imply." To imply something, the speaker or writer must intend the meaning extrapolated from it.

In Akin's words there is zero implication of what you said. And hey, I agree ... what you said was indeed "creepy and Sharia-like." But that is your own inference, i.e., the product of your own mind.

You'd have to be a mind reader to know that and it didn't sound like that to me in the first place.
