Jorge, are you aware that in the Dictionary, 'enjoy' means: to benefit from.. Don't blame Coulter if you didn't catch her meaning. You want to be niggardly with those kinds of assumptions.

Do you actually think the public feels obligated to consider some subtle secondary definition of the word "enjoy" in order to justify Ann Coulter's statement?

You're kidding right?

Let's get real here.

When you make a public statement, you should think ahead as to what the general public interpretation of it will be.

It's really futile to now say you meant "enjoy" in a way hardly anyone uses it. Not to mention stupid.

You are calling it STUPID to expect literacy from people?
I'm sure you want to retract, right? Subtle secondary definitions are STILL definitions. Don't blame Coulter for your lack of knowledge. If the definition is real, and the word is real, then YOU should get real.

General public interpretation, my ass.

If the General public thinks Conservatives are knuckle dragging idiots, should we just go with that?

Coulter's statement needs no justification, because it is a true statement. You don't have to like her style.
