The Few. The Proud. The Frum.
"The Marines are elitist too."
The Marines have a right to be.
From the oh-so-important http://www.frumforum.com/
Gah. I thought Frum prided himself on being erudite?
Elitist: a person who believes that a system or society should be ruled or dominated by an elite.
• a person who believes that they belong to an elite
Elite: a group of people considered to be the best in a particular society or category, esp. because of their power, talent, or wealth : China's educated elite | [as adj. ] an elite combat force.
Marines are ELITES because of their training and esprit de corps.
Frum is an ELITIST because he thinks people without Ivy League degrees are cattle.
