“The prefatory clause that Leftists hang their hats on is totally superfluous.”

In grammar, it is called a subordinate introductory clause.

Davy Crockett, in his autobiography, relates how he and his neighbors enlisted in Jackson’s army for a three month period. They were required to bring their own muskets but the army supplied the ammunition.

According to the left’s reading of the 2nd Amendment, it took an amendment to the Constitution to allow arming the military.

I’m an engineer, not a grammarian, but I do OK given my background. I’d say my term was accurately descriptive if not technically the best. Thanks for the clarification.

The Left lies reflexively. Heck, from watching HRC & BHO for many years, I’d say they lie even when the truth will do, and they’re not alone.
