Video: Sarah Silverman Wants Jews To Vote Obama

Hey, I love Sarah! In her hilarious video urging young Jews for Obama to work on their grandparents, though, she says that Baruch means “lightning.” It doesn’t. It means “blessed.” If you don’t believe me, check out this wonderful article by David Scheim in the Washington Post (August 28):

It’s well researched, with enough stuff about Obama’s name to impress grandparents of other faiths as well!
