That is some Olympic Games level mental gymnastics right there.
So much of modern conservatism/Republicanism in the US is pure reactionary, "own the libs" thinking. If Democrats wanted to pass a resolution stating "puppies and kittens are cute," they would be opposed merely on principle.
I'm pretty sure thats exactly the intent behind all these chuds blathering on about "um, akshually we have a Republic and not a democracy" are actually trying ti accomplish. Imagine some Brit arguing that they have a King and not a monarch 200 years ago.
I wonder if they would freak out if glue instructions said "apply liberally".
