He was probably using the "cultural elitist" phrase to control his immediate impulse to tell you, "You right wing, arch-fascist, imperialist, warmongering, racist, homophobic, tool of the Wall Street running dog capitalists! You stole the elections in 2000 and 2004! Gore won the popular vote, not Bush! And Kerry won, too, not Bush! We need to repeal all the tax cuts for the wealthy that Bush and his evil minions passed, which caused the current depression and epidemic of drug use among teenagers (women and minorities hit worst), an explosion of AIDS worldwide, and the tsunami in Indonesia. You oppose a uniform health care system like Canada's and Britain's which would usher in an era of good health for all people and instead support the corporate polluters and their evil lackeys! Paul wasn't the walrus! I was just saying that to be nice but I was really the walrus! Where are you, mother? They are trying to crucify me! AAAAAAhhhhhh!....".
Just thought you might like some clarification of that phrase. ;)
lol.... I think I prefer "cultural elitist"
