Republican Jason Spencer strips, shouts 'n-word' on Sacha Baron Cohen's show 'Who is America?'

Jason Spencer was pranked into believing that comedian Sacha Baron Cohen was an Israeli anti-terrorism expert

Georgia lawmaker Jason Spencer has been criticized and is facing calls for resignation following his appearance on Sacha Baron Cohen's satire show 'Who is America?'. The show which is known to unmask the repugnant moral attitudes of several prominent figures has accentuated Spencer's racism and intolerance in the second episode. 

The episode which was aired on July 22 showed the Republican state representative make racial comments when asked to enact a Chinese tourist. He kept mumbling words like "Hong Kong", "dragon" and "sushi" which he said sounded like Chinese.

When Cohen, best known for his roles in movies like 'The Dictator' and 'Borat', dressed as an Israeli counter-terror expert Captain Erran Morad, told Spencer that he needs to shout the 'n-word' to get people's attention in order to save himself from a possible kidnapping, the former assistant-physician shouted "n****r".
