Diogenes is a good name for you.
Diogenes lived in a wooden barrel and was a complete loon, “better” than everyone else, walking around with a lamp at all times of the day, claiming to “look for an honest man” -—
You think you are better and smarter than anyone else.

You are a fool, just as your namesake, who thought himself smarter than the some of the greatest philosophical minds in history.

Socrates, Plato and Aristotle are quoted often, to this day.

Diogenes is rarely quoted, except as a joke or an example of a social misfit. There is even a mental illness by that name, now.

You? You will never be quoted.

You are wrong.

You have nobody on your side, of any weight.

Not in history.

Not among the dead, but they can not speak for themselves.

Surely, not among the living. You have no support, as your views are foolish and border on insane.

Radical Birthers are judicial Supremacists and, therefore, they are NOT conservatives.

The Constitution gives little or no power to the Courts to decide eligibility issues for POTUS.

Those powers are given to the States, to the Electors, and to Congress.

Congress has a CO-EQUAL power to interpret the Constitution.

Only liberals and uninformed “conservatives” think otherwise.

Congress says that the Radical Birthers are wrong.

The decision of Congress holds as much weight as any Supreme Court Ruling on this matter, and that is a big reason why the Courts do not want to rule: The Courts KNOW they were not given much power over these issues!

You are a LIBERAL if you disagree with that statement.

Yeah, let's quote some Aristotle, why don't we?

Who is the citizen, and what is the meaning of the term?

...Leaving out of consideration those who have been made citizens, or who have obtained the name of citizen any other accidental manner, we may say, first, that a citizen is not a citizen because he lives in a certain place, for resident aliens and slaves share in the place;

...But the citizen whom we are seeking to define is a citizen in the strictest sense, against whom no such exception can be taken, and his special characteristic is that he shares in the administration of justice, and in offices.

...a citizen is defined to be one of whom both the parents are citizens;

Now your going to tell me Aristotle was a nut or a liar or something...

Another Bitch-Slap from the past for you.
