did you notice the contraband the wicked stepmother had cached: tires, coffee and sugar, all rationed (1943) wartime items? I think we can be a bit over-sensitive about some of these "stereotypes", eveyone in those old cartoons was caricatured and parodied, the snooty rich guy, hollywood celebrities, politicians, every possible ethnic group (including WASPs). There is a difference between poking fun and deliberate malicious insults. I don't feel insulted as a Latin by the old Jack Benny/Mel Blanc skit "Si, Sy, Sue, So". (If you've never seen that, it's worth looking for if you can find the video on the net somewhere.) Benny's impeccable timing and Blanc's eerily deadpan delivery are high comic art. It would be a crime to have inspired comedy like that lost because of some misguided and pointless (and ultimately, patronizing) effort to be PC.
