Political Correctness strikes again. In a last spasm before the elections, the US Congress prohibited the use of the word Crazy Horse as the brand name of a whisky on the grounds that it was insensitive to a member of a Native American group - to wit, Crazy Horse, the leader of the Oglala Sioux tribe. But Messrs Jim Beam, Jack Daniels, Johnny Walker et al remain unprotected, presumably because they are merely White Anglo-Saxon Protestants.
