Cheney and Obama Are Cousins
Lynne Cheney, doing research for a book, has discovered that her husband is distantly related to Barack Obama. They're eighth cousins.
Obama, whose mother was white, did not immediately comment on the revelation. But his campaign made light of the tie, without confirming it. "Obviously, Dick Cheney is the black sheep of the family," Obama spokesman Bill Burton said.
He's probably afraid to confirm it for fear that the Left Blogosphere will abandon him because of his blood taint.
