Racist remains a strong word in my vocabulary, if no one else's. That comment isn't racist, it's stupid, so pathetically stupid that no one should even be offended by it.
For me, any maligning of a whole cultural group because of the real or perceiced attributes of a single member or sub-set of that group is racism. And what Wooters did was malign the whole of the Irish cultural group because of an attribute he imagines I have.
Plus it's always funny listening to his butthurt whining.
