Holy shit, it doesn’t get crazier than this, U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney and Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama are distant cousins. That’s right folks these two opposites are related to each other.

So says the vice president’s wife, Lynne Cheney, who said she discovered that her husband of 43 years is eighth cousins with the senator from Illinois.

The two men could hardly be more different. Cheney is an advocate for pursuing the war in Iraq to try to stabilize the country, while Obama wants to get U.S. troops out of Iraq.

I wonder if Dick’s going to support his new found cousin for President?
