That's obviously true in regards to people who approved of or disapproved of Teddy. Bush's library isn't or wasn't funded by our money by the federal government.

News reports have noted that the library, to be set up at Southern Methodist University, will cost more than $200 million. The question is, who will pay for it? The tabs for presidential libraries are not covered by the taxpayers. They are picked up by nonprofit foundations, and these foundations have no obligation to disclose their sources of money. Bill Clinton has refused to say who is funding his library through the William J. Clinton Foundation, though the Washington Post reported that the royal family of Saudi Arabia contributed $10 million to the Little Rock facility.

It's not paranoia or theory, it's the truth, but we know that Left Wingers don't like the truth and some are abnormally afraid that any opposing viewpoints and actions are all conspiracies against them, which is sometimes amusingly entertaining.
