Jackie Mason's Schmucks

Jackie Mason has a brilliant new book out, Schmucks

Guess who gets an honorable mention?

Jackie Mason, humorist, Comedian and winner for his one man Broadway show "The World According to Me", takes on this challenge of pointing out the "Schmucks" of the world in this abridged CD.

In some ways, this seem like an updating of some of "World". He takes on such Schmucks like Bill & Hillary Clinton, Jews for Jesus, Madonna and France with his pointed humor. His wit is razor sharp and so are some of the points he takes on.


You know, as a conservative fellow, Jackie has deep respect for Christians and their values. What he objects to is Jews for Jesus' unauthorized use of his likeness which implied that Jackie was a Christian and possibly associated with Jews for Jesus.

One can imagine his irritation at Susan Perlman's glib response to Mr. Mason's objection:

Susan Perlman, a spokeswoman for Jews for Jesus, said the pamphlet was "good-natured."

"Shame on him for getting so upset about this," she said Friday.


Now Jackie Mason enjoys the last word.

A Jews for Jesus van carrying children was involved in a single vehicle accident in northern California. An interstate freeway was blocked off and an emergency medical helicopter evacuated three occupants to a hospital.
Why is Jews for Jesus silent on this tragedy? Why aren't they asking for prayer for the victims? Why aren't they giving updates?
Shame on Them.

The driver was probably some budweiser drinking born-again red neck from the South - a Baptist whose organization funds both JFJ and the KKK
