Via UK Telegraph (January 29, 2010):
It was bad enough that President Barack Obama lost his US Senate super majority to a Republican. Now it turns out that Scott Brown, the newly elected senator from Massachusetts, is Mr Obama’s cousin.
Running tally of Barack Obama’s “coincidental” family ties: Dick Cheney, Warren Buffett, Scott Brown.
According to the New York Post, “Obama is related to Vice President Dick Cheney through a 17th-century descendant, as well as President Bush” which of course means Bush and Cheney are also related, odd in and of itself. “In addition to John Kerry, Marilyn Monroe and Princess Di and half a dozen ex-presidents, Bush is related to Pocahontas’ living relatives.”
