That is not racist. It is, however, racist to mock the opinions of handsome pete

Only when he's black. Pete is a wandering menstral.

Not a limerick. A limerick would read more like:

In Utah I was checked up and down
by a sun bleached old mormon clown
he wanted a wife
riding a bike
complete with a republican gown.
