I understand that this limitation/prohibition against Fed ownership of land goes all the way back to the late 1700s and are written into the Articles’ of Confederation which set the stage for the USA Constitution. Of course for people of the ilk of Reid and Obama and their enablers the Constitution only has meaning/effect since about the 1917s when ‘new world order’ politics of Wilson and now Reid, Obama,and Muslims like Jarette control the meaning of the Constitution.
