Look up the word 'enjoy'. The second definition means ...to derive benefit from.
Okay, Word Nazi time.
In addition to "take pleasure from," enjoy may be defined, "to have the use or benefit of" (Dictionary.com). You cannot apply the "benefit" definition of "enjoy" and still parse a grammatically correct sentence. Context is everything, and if she meant benefit, she wrote it wrong. In order for the sentence to mean what you would like to pretend it means, the direct object should have described the benefits themselves (fame, fortune), not the event that conferred them (their husbands' deaths).
These 4 broads have certainly benefited, not only monetarily (over $1,300,000) but in perceived stature.
So construct a sentence out of that. "These four broads are enjoying monetary gains and an increase in perceived stature from their husbands' deaths." I doubt they took pleasure from their husbands' deaths. But Coulter's phrasing leaves no other interpretation.
That you would go to such lengths defending this sentence is instructive.
Well, add to it the fact that she describes them as "revelling" in the previous sentence and I think that's the clincher. Unless we're going to try to dig up some alternative meaning of "revel" as well.
