White Anglo-Saxon Protestant
Descendants of colonial-era immigrants from the British Isles--especially England, but also from Wales and Scotland (irrespective of the fact that Scots and Welsh people are predominantly descended from Celts, not descendants of Angles and Saxons)--who belonged to the Presbyterian, Congregationalist, and Episcopalian (Anglican) denominations of Protestantism.
The term is redundant because all Anglo-Saxons are white.

To this day in America, the W.A.S.P.s are the one group about which--in a politically correct atmosphere--jokes can be made with impunity.

Get the P.A.W.G. mug.Someone (usualy a solider) is captured by the opisition forces. While being held is called a "P.O.W." or Prisoner Of War. Though this is almost always a solider held by there nations enemy forces, it is not limited to this, it can be applied to anyone taken captive during war time. Look up the T.V. show "Hogan's Heros". It is about a group of multinational Prisoners Of War being held in a Nazi P.O.W. camp during world war two, and get into many comical situations, once and for all proving that Nazis are hilaious.
