The term Anglo-Saxon in the context I used it was to refer to a group of very polite, civil, and dignified people.

Let's suppose that was your intention. In that case it was a very poor choice of words that didn't come across well at all. (I toned this down a lot.)

Our adversaries in this struggle are nothing like that... They are in fact SCUM OF THE EARTH.

Why don't you identify some specific individuals to clarify what you are talking about.

Nominded,
Look the term Anglo-Saxon can indeed be used as a colloquialism to refer to a group of polite, civil, and dignified people. Many authors use to use this expression to refer to the British or English people because they use to exemplify these traits. The British peoples no longer are referred to this way today. But that's another story. I've read this term used this way many times. Lester Thurow and other columnists use it in this context all the time.
Now as far as Scum of the Earth, it's another colorful expression. But since you want names let's start with Rham Emanuel. He fits the bill. Even in the Democratic Party Rham is referred to as a Pit Bull. I wouldn't want to defame Pit Bulls that way. If you didn't just fall off a turnip truck you must be aware of Obama's past associates. I don't have time to go into all the folks. Research it yourself. But you just know the types of judicial nominees you are going to get. I'd be amazed if you don't get the far, far, left kooks. Look I got to go now. Cheers!
