No, they would have tried to crucify him. You're right.
But I've used the phrase many times in my life and never thought I was making fun of black people. So I'm not passing judgement on Berman.

I'm not passing judgment on Berman either, but I don't doubt that, given the phrase's history, many people continue to find it offensive.
