Arlen- please watch it again- can you honestly say they are laughing WITH Burns and not AT him? I cannot... maybe if he took the silly hat off... maybe if he didn't pretend to lose his place and then laughed... maybe if he even tried to say the poem with some degree of respect... maybe if he didn't keep turning around away from the audience to giggle like a buffoon... maybe if the images were not done comically... maybe if the images were not paraded around behind him- distracting from the poem...maybe maybe maybe... it would be what you are trying to say it was... but it wasn't...
this appears to be a very clear attempt to take the piss out of Burns, the Scots language, haggis (which is much more than just a food item- as you I both know), and Scottish patriotism...
oh.. and you lost me on one thing... no one said it was racist or mentioned Nazis but you.... I'm not quite sure where you are going with that one...
