A group of pro-Barack Obama Democrats are selling ivory white suede Obama-kahs that say "Obama '08" as a way to increase awareness and support for the "Obama for America" campaign. They point out this is not a fundraiser.

No, this is not a joke.

quote:

We are volunteers with Senator Barack Obama's “Faith-Action-Change NYC” group and we've created "Obama '08" yarmulkes (Jewish skullcaps, also called kippot).
The yarmulkes are professionally made of ivory white suede, with “Obama ‘08” printed in blue, and the campaign's logo directly above the text. Please help us spread the word about their availability by reaching out to your friends at your synagogue (or your classmates at your local college’s Hillel) and to any other Jews you know who support Senator Obama -- and point them to our website

So what? A group of Jews has started a 'Jews for Obama' political club.
Do you see a conspiracy?

Also, it just seemed so hilarious. I may get one.

I might too. Somebody should Photoshop one onto an old snapshot of Bin Ladin as well, just so that we could have a picture with "Osama's Obama-kah" as the caption.
