The Religious Rightwingers - The "Moral Elites"
So, if Limbaugh and Laura Inghram and Hannity can all constantly harp on the supposed "liberal elites" who run the heathen Eastern Seabord, Hollywood and every college in America, why can't we throw it right back at them?

The religious rightwingers and the Republican party want to tell everyone else how to conduct their lives.

They consider themselves spiritually and morally superior to everyone else. And they want to pass laws and constitutional amendments which would force people to adhere to their specific brand of morality.

In other words, they are indeed rightwing "Moral Elitists."

And that's what we should call them.

3. Not sure I could agree with you any more than I do, ruggerson,
but at the same time, take a comliment, would you, on how succinctly you put it.

Nice damn post.
