None of these “elite” people are pro-American Exceptionalism, neither are they pro-Constitution.
I don't think so. While I agree with you that the "elite" are not pro American Exceptionalism or pro Constitution, right now, their ox is the one getting gored. Their investment portfolios are going down the tubes. ACORN and SEIU are showing up at the front gates of the mansions.
Babs likes to dabble in socialism, but she also likes that private mansion with her little part of the Pacific Ocean kept as a private beach. She likes environmentalism, but still has a driver take a Winnebago when she goes shopping, so she can have a private living room and bathroom roll around with her. Obama's killing the economy that make those things possible. The elite don't like that.
