A most interesting dichotomy....

It seems to me that the mindset of a large, vocal group of our fellow countrymen is as follows:

The government MUST take care of making decisions about my wife's (girlfriend's, whatever) healthcare.

The government MUST NOT be at all involved with my guns.


Its not just this one area, but this is the one most on people's minds right now.
