I implore everyone to fight these efforts by millionaire progressives...

Not to stray off topic, but the above is representative of a disturbing trend I'm seeing more and more of on FR. What significance is the wealth of the progressive? Obviously some, or it wouldn't be mentioned. Why is it suddenly looked down upon in certain circles to be wealthy or have an Ivy League education? It used to be that only the left held the wealthy in disdain, and I prefer it that way.

The emphasis is on their ‘progessive’ position not their wealth. That only stands as a reminder that they are using it to drive the country over a cliff and it is the millionaire (billionaire) progressives driving it:
Bill Gates
George Soros
Bloomberg
Jobs?
Buffet
The majority of dems sitting in congress. It’s the John Kerrys, the Nancy Peolosis, the Reids and on and on.

That’s just my interpretation and mho.

If the subject is Gay, anything is okay. You’ve been around here long enough to realize that; haven’t you?

Well then, let me be the first to explain this to you in terms you can understand; we do not deplore wealth, nor do we harbvor envy for them, but more accurately the Elites or the "intellectual class" that have been commented on by conservative for a very long time. George Soros, and quite a few like him, are using vast sums of wealth to promote progressive/socialist agendas that I opposwe...and under their plan I suppose they'll be the privileged class and we'll be the serfs.

I believe that David Horowitz has shown that the Ivy League is more interested in political indoctrination than it is in excellence or education. For crying out loud, Paul Krugman taught at Princeton...he's a marxist that amazingly believes Obama didn't spend enough....Barack Obama has given us historical deficits and spent massive amounts...and the economy is still in the gutter.
