Most rich Democrats are rich due to being creative, not intelligent. What does a rich, Hollywood elitist know about running a business? What does an actor know besides feigning emotion? What does a singer know besides making music? Even the way they made their money is very unusual, as compared to the rest of the country, so what do they know about us?

A limosine liberal can abstractly care about the rain forests, the poor, and Halliburton because it feels good to do so, and has a certain moral quality that is otherwise lacking in their lives. Their views don't have to make sense, exactly, they just have to sound plausible and noble.

This opens the door to stupidity. Many rich liberals are caught in a self perpetuating spiral of stupid beliefs, grounded in fantasy, and buffered by conspiracy. Little things like facts are pointless distractions, at best.

I think most rich DemocRATS got that way due to family inheritance. If they actually had to work for what they have, they wouldn't be DemocRATS. "A businessman voting for a DemocRAT is like a chicken voting for Col. Sanders."

Wow! What a great post, Steel!

Show me a rich liberal, and I will show you a person who became wealthy through either a means that requires no intelligence, or through inheritance. Tracer Heinz Kerry comes to mind here for some reason.
