The term visit is the only thing that people misunderstood. Thus, what you and others interpreted was not completely different. It was only slightly different.
Visit could mean:
1. To go to the white house and have a meal on the expensive china that the Bush family bought. [Which DeepImpact2 meant]
or
2. To go to the white house and take a tour.

What DeepImpact2 meant is what she said!

ETA: If you write something and most of the people interpret it as something completely different than what you meant it----that means you worded it wrong. Point blank.

How is DeepImpact2 a senseless person? What she said made sense and she seems to have sense. It appears to me that you are being senseless.

You can go back and forth all you want, but the fact is several people have interpreted deepimpact's comment the same way.

The fact also is that several people have interpreted DeepImpact's comment incorrectly. The wording would be wrong if the words she used did not mean what she was trying to say. She meant what she said and said what she meant.
