She didn't meen it in a bad way I love her always have always will. You go Jen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All you people defending Jennifer are her fans, I am not a fan of her and never will as she get older she gets DUMDER THAN DUMD, AND I AM OFFENDING HER, I have a deaf child the pain i endure when others will call him RETARD, you cannot describe, only a mother would know, this women to say this word, tells me Jennifer disregard, the value of intellectual with needs, I don't care if she regard herself, as a RETARD, you still look to people as you look at them in your young age. She has OFFENDED women, men, and now children, this is AMERICA SWEET HEART you all need a reality check with this women, because she does not REPESENT THE AMERICAN WAY, we are a country of people with compassion, that is who we are, if this word is in your mind then you have no compassion.

N Ellen then you were not a real fan! people are human! i bet you have said something you wished you could take back. i think we all have.

let's be real! all of us have said things that we wished we didn't!. she wasn't talking about anyone but herself. for angelove - to me it is far worse to call your child a blob, or goofy or forget a child while doing a seat down interview with no cameras or people around except the interviewer. we are human! however, we all are humans and need to learn how to forgive! jen and angie and us!

"you know, if you keep bullying everyone around with vocabulary and though police, pretty soon you will find there is a backlash and people will be UNWILLING TO SUPPORT WHATEVER YOUR CAUSE OR GROUP IS. people get fed up with all this crap about 'you can't use this word' or 'you can't say that or think that because its not allowed'...freedom of speech is something everyone is entitled to. so STEP OFF!!!!!!!!!!" Applause to you, couldn't have said it better myself. Somehow society managed to function prior to a time when the thought police existed. Years ago in America, everyone wasn't OFFENDED by every little last thing that was said or thought. Frankly, I'm offended by the inability of modern Americans to deal with other people's differing opinions and thoughts and words. Should I insist that we stop using the word "offended" because I find it so offensive?
