A Complete Lack of Self-Awareness
“This is a hard decision for me personally because frankly I don’t like him,” she said of Obama in an interview with CNN’s Joe Johns. “I feel like he is an elitist. I feel like he has not given me reason to trust him.”
Forester is the CEO of EL Rothschild, a holding company with businesses around the world. She is married to international banker Sir Evelyn de Rothschild. Forester is a member of the DNC’s Democrats Abroad chapter and splits her time living in London and New York.
I’m pretty sure that last paragraph defines elitist.

No doubt Louis XVI felt the same way. It’s hard enough being aristocratic without all these ‘elistists’ getting in the way.

I recall the definition of the yiddish term “chutzpah.” The definition of chutzpah is when a man kills his parents and then pleads for mercy from the court because he is an orphan.
The new definition is when a Rothschild whose husband has apparently been knighted by the Queen calls the son of a Kansas mother raised in a single family environment, elitist.
I sure would love to read her observations from the platform committee deliberations. She probably based her views on what she heard from her maid!

I was going to try and parody it, but that was impossible. Whomever wrote the final paragraph had to be sending that around the office laughing their butts off.

It takes an elitist to know an elitist?
I got nothing here but an image of a yippy little dog and complains about the end of concord service…

I’m pretty sure that last paragraph does NOT define “elitist.” Part of the problem for Democrats is that they don’t understand what the word “elitist” means.
Just so you know, it is not a synonym for “rich.”
For example, Cindy McCain would never be considered an elitist because she does jaw-dropping charity work around the world. It’s the same reason why Princess Diana was never considered an elitist.
When a candidate goes behind closed doors in San Francisco and talks about the people in Pennsylvania in a way that he would never talk about them to their faces in Pennsylvania, he is an elitist.
You display ignorance with your comments.

So someone who has a title such Lady is by definition an elitist. Thanks for playing though.
