Obama's educated aristocrats attitude toward the TEA Party - "Let them eat Cake"

I was motivated to write this article after reading the following two articles:

Is The Tea Party Simply A Symbol Of Public Anger Or Is It The Future of the GOP? (Sodahead)
http://twurl.cc/21xr

which was inspired by

The Tea Party Teens (New York Times) http://twurl.cc/21xs

Both of these articles seem to be attempts by liberal would be Political Pundits to explain, what seems to them to be, the unfathomable present status of the TEA Party Movement:. To quote NYT's David Brooks:

"But it is now more popular than either major party. According to the NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, 41 percent of Americans have a positive view of the tea party movement. Only 35 percent of Americans have a positive view of the Democrats and only 28 percent have a positive view of the Republican Party."

Sodahead's Lon (no last name - maybe in hiding?) put it this way:
"The Republican Party holds a 28% net-negative favorable/unfavorable rating, the Democratic Party holds a net-negative fav/unfav 35-45%. The shocker is that the Tea Party movement holds a 41-23% net-positive score."

NYT's Brooks posited the explanation for the rise of the TEA Party as being backlash by the uneducated commoners against the educated class. Mr. Brooks says the tea party's opposition to abortion, gun control, global warming, an international view of foreign affairs, big government and media bias is simply based on class warfare.
"Every single idea associated with the educated class has grown more unpopular over the past year. The educated class believes in global warming, so public skepticism about global warming is on the rise. The educated class supports abortion rights, so public opinion is shifting against them. The educated class supports gun control, so opposition to gun control is mounting."

From this it seems that liberals feel that we tea party folks are little more than animals acting on herd instinct. Basically, Mr. Brooks and his allegedly educated liberal, elitist cohorts believe we TEA Party folks are not intelligent enough to form opinions on are own nor able seek people that share our opinions.
How many conversations with his fellow liberals with his fellow liberals must this man have had to feel it was safe to reduce such repugnant thoughts to writing.

And this attitude towards us common citizens seems to be in lock step with Obama's attitude towards us common voters.

"The Obama administration is premised on the conviction that pragmatic federal leaders with professional expertise should have the power to implement programs to solve the country’s problems."

At this point, Sodahead's Lon (apparently in hiding) realized that Obama Aristocrat Brooks had said the equivalent of "let them eat cake" to the masses. He realized that Mr. Brooks blurting out how Liberals really feel about the common citizen might jeopardize Obama's "educated, elitist, aristocratic Second Estate" and feared that it could lead to a "Storming of the Bastille" by the uneducated masses aka tea party folks.

But Lon does not really discredit or deny Mr. Brook's theory. Instead he merely grossly underestimates that it upset thousands of of people. And then goes on to propose his own ridiculous theory on why the TEA Party movement is so popular:

"They simply want to say, “shove it you commie, liberal scum.”

The basis for Sodahead Lon theory seems to just be a regurgitation of Democrat Propaganda.

How can two members of Obama's educated, elitist, aristocratic Second estate get it so wrong? Apparently they really do think that we are so ignorant that they are above us. Apparently they are so removed from the contact of the average man that they are unable to engage one and ask them, "Why do you have the opinions you have? So I am going to try to explain in to the ruling class in a manner that meets with their expectations.

"You see, while we are living our lives we form opinions based on our internal moral compass and alleged limited mental ability. And then, while we are out there toiling to keep you in the life style you have become accustomed to, we talk to each other. And when we find someone that shares our opinions, we hang around with them.
Then, some of us that are smarter, that can read and such,begins to tell the rest of us about this Constitution thingy and Bill of Rights. And then there was this really hard to think on stuff like, God Given Rights, Natural law and a bunch of stuff some really smart guys wrote during something called the "Enlightenment" And they mentioned that some of those folks that wrote that Constitution thingy said we should beware of tyrants. They said to make sure that we place priority on loyalty to country over loyalty to political party. And then some of us said now what should we do.

So then someone said we should seek out other people that might feel like us. And so we started having meetings and inviting people to come. And apparently a lot of people thought like us."

And that is why you two wrote your articles.

Next I am going to use my allegedly inferior, uneducated conservative mind to write a more complete explanation about the TEA Party called -
"TEA Party - It is not Republican vs Democrat nor Educated vs Uneducated nor white vs color"

In the mean time, might I suggest the educated Liberal Elitists make sure the draw bridge is up, the moat is filled and you muzzle your fellow allegedly educated aristocrats who accidentally blurt out how you Liberals really feel about the common citizen.

Those were my thoughts.

This is precisely why the teabaggers are such a danger to the true cause of liberty.

"TEA Party - It is not Republican vs Democrat nor Educated vs Uneducated nor white vs color"

Yet it's all "Libruls libruls libruls" and far right wingnut agenda. Defend the parts of the constitution that I like and damn the parts I don't. It's well meaning sentiments twisted into extremism to continue serving the NWO's divide and conquer agenda. Hypocrocy, theocracy, and vacant headed mediocrity.

Break out of the right left paradigm fools and face reality. These people will gladly line up behind the next republican to institute the next phase of the Bush/Obama policies of global war and fascist government quick as you can say "my jack boots are polished".
