"Citizens of a government"?

I just heard Dan Rather, in a radio commentary on a CBS News radio affiliate, refer to Americans as "citizens of a government" [emphasis mine] rather than "citizens of a nation"... a statist Freudian slip, or simple ignorance unbecoming a self-styled political pundit?

Typical. I would say that he honestly believes that a "citizen" is defined by what government they submit to.

Does the Basque nation (for example) have citizens as such?
