Some stories evidently just write themselves.

In August, Palin made an appearance on "Fox News Sunday" and said that, compared to Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, she didn't think Obama had "the cojones" to effectively deal with illegal immigration issues.

While her sassy statement may have angered some Americans, it inspired Emil Vicale, a Connecticut toymaker who runs HeroBuilders.com, a company that specializes in novelty political toys and personalized action figures.

"I almost died when I heard Palin say that," Vicale told AOL News. "After that, I knew I had to give Palin the cojones she wanted."

Vicale went nuts quickly drawing up the prototype of a new -- and topical -- political toy to add to his online store. A short time later, Sarah's Talking Cojones were born.

The toy, which sells for $24.95 a pop or $21.95 if you buy in bulk, is a pink, plushy pair of "cojones" topped with coarse black hair and a loop, making it easy to hang on a key chain, car rear-view mirror, or, as Vicale suggests, "on the Christmas tree."

The plush toy is embroidered with a cheerful face -- eyes, nose, mouth and all -- and, when squeezed, it plays a short sound bite of the former Alaska governor's now-infamous "cojones" quote.

Bonus points for being afraid of Todd Palin, but unafraid of Michelle Obama.

"Being a man, I know the value of proper-looking cojones," Vicale said. "I wanted to make them appropriate and more importantly, squeezable."

Excuse me! This is one sick f**ker. ;D

There was a briefly-popular similar toy "set" on longer cords that would dangle down over a vehicle's license-plate. One "set" I saw even came with a sign saying JUST DIVORCED.
