Is the US Constitution the Supreme Law of the United States?

It is the supreme final word... it is just not the law of the land. Not law as in a legal sense, as was suggested.

I thought my assessment was correct this has devolved to a semantics argument. The Constitution while the final arbitrator of what is allowed to be a law, is itself not a law, so it can't be the "law" of the land. I get it.

No. You have entered into a semantical argument. ;)

You were/are correct. I agree with you. It is the ones arguing semantics that I am correcting...
 
Libertarians think the Constitution has the Posse Comitatus Act written in it, and Lefties think Commerce Clause gives them license to do whatever they want except regulating/taxing imports.

Constitution means nothing, might makes right means everything.
