Making ‘Anglo-Saxon’ Scandalous

The English-speaking world shares a culture as well as a language, and the term “Anglo-Saxon” has long been employed as a shorthand designation of this culture, for good or ill.

If Mitt Romney Used A Dog Whistle, Would A Bitch Hear It?

by Smitty (via American Glob) Test my logic.
