"Sorry. I'm going to shuck and jive! Time to shuck and jive."

I guess maybe he is racist, GfS. Or at least, tasteless. I've never heard "shuckin' and jivin'" as anything but in relation to slurs against African-Americans.

And I haven't exactly been living in a cave all this time, either! I AM quite familiar with the term "jive" in relation to a particular genre of music.

When you're backed into a corner there, you tap-dance pretty well, GfS. Almost as fancy as Fred Astaire.

By the way, are you capable of making a critical comment about a politician (or anyone else for that matter) without resorting to childishly insulting epithets like "Oblabbo?" That's really the sign of a pretty immature mind.
