I’ve seen this in 4 different places, already today.
The Obama Journo-listers are at it again.
That’s correct, always moving West. There were tribes of Celts all over the place before moving toward Gaul and eventually across to the Isle.
It’s all so convenient for King Barack. Now the media will obsess on this for the rest of the week and ignore talking about his record. They think his record is great, so why they want to avoid bragging it up is beyond me. And next week they will find something else to obsess on.
Not a damned thing. Name anything even close that has come out of sub Saharan Africa or the near east. Cannibalism, slavery and Islam.
Wouldn’t surprise me in the least if these anonymous “advisers” were sent to the UK by obama to pose as Romney people.
Of course it was just fine when Hussein simgled out the black community in saying he “had their back” and they need to have his.
Not true. They were a “Germanic” tribe during the times of the Roman Empire, buy they were not the same people we refer to today as “Germans”... there was a lot more movement and migration in ancient times.
I love that book, I read it once or twice a year.
You mean O’Bama is not Irish??? Well I guess I’ll have to vote for the other guy this time. . . . /sarc
The Angles and Saxons were the Germanic tribes which invaded Great Britain after the fall of the Roman Empire. And they became the dominant groups in what became England. There were also the native Brits who survived the invasions along with descendants of Viking invaders who decided to settle down in GB.
Anglo-Saxon is an accurate term (though very un-PC) to describe the dominant European settlement of what is now the USA, and about 90% of the white population during the revolutionary war were English.
Churchill wrote many soaring lines about the Anglo-Saxon influence in the old and new worlds.
But though a very descriptive term to describe the dominant influences of England and colonial America, Anglo-Saxon would be uber UN-PC these days.
NBC/WSJ POLL - Wed, July 25, 2012 (How? democrats were 'oversampled' by 11%) ('predicting' the exit poll % on November 6, 2012)
50%-50% NBC/WSJ POLL - Wed, July 25, 2012 (democrats 50% - Republicans 50%) (minus 5.5% OBAMA - plus 5.5% ROMNEY)

In what way? How many Jews were on the Mayflower?
Correct. After the fall of the Roman Empire, the Saxons were under fire from the expanding Frankish tribes. They invaded modern day England to avoid the Franks. At the time, the inhabitants of England were Celtic and some settled Romans. Some of them melted in with the Saxons, but most scattered into Cornwall, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and even Northern France (most people don’t know this, but the King Arthur story originated in France as a Celtic, anti-Saxon folk hero). Of course there was later influence by the Danes (Vikings) and Normans, though the populace of modern day England remained mostly Saxon. The reference of a people as “the Germans” didn’t come about until the Holy Roman Empire. “The Germans” are more Frankish, or French, genetically than they are Saxon.
5. of or relating to Britain and the US, esp their common legal, political, and commercial cultures, as compared to continental Europe
Oooo. How racist.
Without the Jews there would be NO Christians. Now go away and get educated before you make yourseld look STUPID again.
I do think an Anglo-Saxon would better understand the relationship between England and America than would a Kenyan reject.
He attained his present encyclopedic knowledge of our country's anglo/saxon birthright during his extensive tutelage at the knee of Reverend Jeremiah Wright.
But I'm just speculating.
