Explain that to me? I don't understand how anything on the Internet can be considered "private," I guess...
In exactly the same way that a restaurant, store, or other brick/mortar store is "private" - the proprietor doesn;t need a court order to get someone to leave.
I've had discussions like this before:

(Someone to bartender) "Why are you kicking me out? This is public property! (Turns to me) They shouldn't be able to throw me out!"
"Oh, they can, all right."
"No, they can't. It's public property."
"No, it's private property. It's a public SPACE, but not property."
"No, it isn't."
"Yes, it is. It's a bar, and someone OWNS it and has a mortgage on it. Pays taxes. Wages. All that good gig. And YOU happen to be a guest."
"Guest? I pay money to drink here, so I have the right to do whatever I want."
"'Fraid not. The owner --OWNER-- didn't have to make this dump into a bar, and he or she doesn't have to put up with every little thing."
"Screw you."

Yo! We're getting into BAD visuals here.

Hillary and Newt alone is bad enough, but Cheney?
