A political
caricature against various
celebrities and
wealthy persons that believe in
left leaning politics.
Although the limousine liberal celebrity is frequenltly subject to ridicule (often well founded) for their ignorance of economics or politics, a rich liberal politician has the advantage of not needing to solicit funding from special interests in order to get or keep office. For instance, the Democratic Senator Herbert Kohl of Wisconsin owns his own chain of grocery and retail stores, and does not need to host fund raisers or cut deals in order to run his campaigns.
