The Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has announced it will take the Cornish Pasty Association’s (CPA) application for Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) to Brussels.
This is what America would become if we took the advice of people like AlGore, Barack Obama, and John Kerry to become more like Europe. They reason they say that (although they would never admit it), is because Europe has a layer of government twenty miles thick (and growing) on its back — and that’s the environment in which Overclass fascists like them thrive.

Steve Sailer has some thoughts on the Toyota Prius, the wheels of choice for the progressive on the prowl.
After all, the Prius is very similar in shape (just smaller) to perhaps the most unfashionable car of the decade, the Pontiac Aztek (introduced in 2001, now discontinued). The picture above is of an Aztek, not a Prius.

Police said it did not appear that the wire was intended as a trap but was designed to act as a barrier to deter people from entering private land.
Guess it worked.
But Ryan’s stepfather condemned whoever attached the wire to the trees.
Indeed. Of course, if you’d taught the boy not to trespass, he would still be with you. What goes around, comes around. Moral: Stay off of other people’s property. The world is not your playground.

A lawyer who fervently contested the result of the 2000 presidential election and started an organization advocating voter reform used it to hide profits from another venture, the police say: a strip club that offered more than dancing.
According to the police, Mr. Posner, a 52-year-old tax lawyer, funneled the club’s money to an account for Voter March, the grass-roots demonstration organization he started shortly after the 2000 election that has been largely inactive since 2004. He deposited money into several other accounts, the police said, adding that the amounts were low enough to avoid raising a red flag at the Internal Revenue Service.
Reform — Yes we can!
It’s amazing what those grass roots will do for you.

In most of the world when a person works long hours without pay, it is referred to as “slavery” or “forced labor.” For white people this process is referred to as an internship and is considered an essential stage in white development.
White people view the internship as their foot into the door to such high-profile low-paying career fields as journalism, film, politics, art, non-profits, and anything associated with a museum. Any white person who takes an internship outside of these industries is either the wrong type of white person or a law student. There are no exceptions.

… will make your brain hurt.
My guess is that the biggest change in the Democratic Party as a result of the influx of the urban affluent comes from more of a faux concern for poor people. Noblesse oblige impels the Democratic Party upper class to support more health care and educational spending for the poor. But on wages the Democratic upper class sees the poor as domestic servants. Maids, nannies, yard workers, and other servants should be cheap. Prices at the local dry cleaner should be low.
