DiogenesLamp: "Why put forth an "appeal to authority"? Can we not read and understand the law for ourselves?"

I'm pretty sure DiogenesLamp has all along been appealing to the Constitution's hither to unknown pre-preamble which unconditionally grants DiogenesLamp unlimited authority to declare the Constitution means whatever DiogenesLamp says it means, no appeals to other "authorities" allowed.

If you want people to take you seriously, you'll have to do a better job of refuting their points.
