To: Behind Liberal Lines
The limousine liberal set are going to be mighty dismayed that the hoi polloi will now have easier access to yet another facet of life that once only they had easy access too.

The self-annointed "beautiful people" (or "yuppies") used to lord it over the rest of us with their oh-so-trendy lifestyle only to have captalism commercialize it and bring it to the masses on the cheap.

For example, 10 years ago, you had to be a beautiful person to be able to order a "grande triple-shot skim milk latte" but now Joe Six-Pack can stroll into any one of 6,000 Starbucks outlets and order the same damn thing for under $3. Todd and Margo are simply horrified.

Used to be only the super-trendy would tool around in a Lexus or Infiniti sedan. Now not only can the average wage earner trade up to one of those models but fully-loaded "wage-slave" models like the Nissan Altima, Toyota Camry and Honda Preludes are looking mighty luxurious. Even Pontiacs and Buicks are looking pretty sharp these days and boy are the beautiful people pissed. Now they have to trade up to $80,000 cars to set themselves apart from the rabble.

They are selling sushi in (gasp) supermarkets! They are marketing Apple computers and iPods to mere clerks and laborers. Even cellphones are no longer the mark of a "yuppie on the move" for now even grandma with the housedress and senior citizen discount carries one in her purse.

And now Wal-Mart is going to be retailing healthier foods and the rank-and-file might not be snacking on Little Debbie cakes and Nacho Doritos for too much longer now. This is going to be another big setback for the limousine liberals. They just hate it when the common people are successful.
