The Elite

You ever notice how the Republicans like to throw the term "elite" around when referring to liberal-minded people?

It's interesting how skilled they are at describing their opponents in terms that actually apply to themselves.

The Republican Party generally represents the interests of very wealthy and powerful individuals and businesses. A group that makes up perhaps 10% of the population (and I'm being generous with that number). If that's not the definition of Elite, then I've simply been mis-educated on what that word actually means.
