29. Ahh.... good ol' private public property.

What still sort of amazes me about so many right-wing people in the US is that they don't really seem to know what they stand for, because they haven't a clue about how the government is organized down to not recognizing the difference between public and private property. For all of their talk about the constitution, none of them seem to know anything about it. I'm probably giving them too much credit here, but maybe - just maybe - they figure there were enough racist bigots involved in writing it that it must be all about how all Americans should rightly be racist bigots.
