More Reasons To Support The Danes.

If you live in Prince George's County, MD, you are perpetually annoyed that the only media attention you ever get involves crime --don't you people know how much good goes on here?

Prince George's County, by the way, is one of the few (perhaps the only) American counties named after a Dane. This was Prince George of Denmark, married to Princess Anne when her uncle, Charles II, was King of England.

Much of Prince George's County has been represented for many years by House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, who is one of the few American politicians of Danish descent (the late Lloyd Bentsen was another).

Well, those two are strikes against the motherland, actually. Curtsy: Powerline.
