I dont think he used the word in the sense you thought,"gobbly-gook",just a slang or phrase to mean mixed up.
"gook" "kike" "spik" etc are just symbols...don't let them bother you
black people did the right thing by reappropriating the "N" word, it made it quite powerless. It may just be me, but I find it quite funny when one has that much power of someone with one word. This is not to offend anyone so please READ before you yell at me, use your mind and take in what I said...don't just "go off"

Step back from people and define things for yourselves...it is quite empowering
