Yarmulkes for Political Junkies
August 14, 2008 6:35 PM
For those Jews out there just kvelling to let their candidate preference be known in shul, behold the world of Shmuel Tennenhaus at VanityKippah.com.
A kippah is a yarmulke, or a skull cap, and Tennenhous has one for supporters of Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz, which he calls the McCippah.
 The front: |
 And the back (“zayer shain” means “very nice,” or “great” in Yiddish.) |
 And for supporters of Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, here’s the Obamica. The front: |
 And the back (a Bubby is a grandmother in Yiddish. And Obama should be so lucky!) |
Oy!

I guess if Hillary would have made it her's could say something like: "A candidate only a bubba could love." Thanks for "menschy" post, Jake.
