Poorly worded title.
The “Government” has no “rights”.
All it has are duties and responsibilities - first and foremost of which are the protection of our God-given rights (irrespective of its inability/reluctance to do so).
Only then does it have authorities - granted to its representatives by us, and limited in their application by the Constitution - under which it is supposed to carry out its duties and responsibilities.
It really is that simple.
Not that they care anymore...

Spot on! The title is going with the Barack Al-Bama dream version of a Constitution. Where the goobermint has all the power and the citizens eat cow pie.
