I never said it was racist.  I said if the movie was made today that the line wouldn't have been included, because these days it doesn't matter if something is racist -- if soemone might perceive it to be, that alone makes it not worth the risk.  That is a window into the world we live in at this point in time.

 Are you kidding me? The man who invented Jar Jar Binks, Watto and gave some aliens the voice of Charlie Chan wouldn't have included a line of genuine humour if he thoughts there was a slim chance some might read it as racist?
