I'm just a little older than you and I never heard of the song. I think the whole tempest in a teapot has to do with the fact that a leftist can get away with saying something that is blatantly racially-charged, while if a conservative even said something innocent, the worst spin would be put on it.

If an older person says a certain expression is offensive, take his word for it. He might have witnessed things that you might find hard to imagine.

Oh, I understood the meaning for the article and the post, my only point is, some people go out of their way to be offended..
