Hi Dan,
I would call or check, depending on my position. If someone else raised, I would probably call, depending on that player's history in the game. If it was late in the game, and there were only a few people at the final table, I would raise.
It's all relative, and you're right. That is a tough hand to call. It's easy for it to be beaten, because people will hang on to aces and kings (and even queens) until the flop. All it takes is one face card on the flop, turn, or river to match up with one in someone's hand, and your jacks are toast.
