Tonight is the first night of Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year. Let's all wish L'Shana Tova (roughly translated to good new year) to Senator George Allen, who recently disovered his mother is Jewish - which makes him Jewish under Jewish Law.
You can send Senator Allen a Rosh Hashana message here
This should be a time for Senator Allen to celebrate his Jewish roots, and for Jews to welcome him into the fold and help him celebrate and get comfortable with his newfound Judaism.
He's such a nice boy.
