Jackie Mason, a comedian, used a controversial word to describe President Barack Obama Friday, March 13. Mason was performing at Feinstein’s at Loews regency in NYC.

Jackie Mason used the word “Schwartza” to refer to Obama. What does schwartza mean? Opinions are divided. Some said it was the N word, while others said it was a Jewish word for Black.

Mason has defended himself. In a bid to deflect attention on himself, Mason claimed Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are “professional racists”. TMZ has the long story on Jackie Mason’s saga here. If you don’t know who Mason is, there’s a photo of him at the link.
