Obama on 'cousin' Cheney: Will skip the family hunting party.

Obama on Jay Leno yesterday...

Raw Story:

The senator also weighed in on the recent revelation that he is related -- albeit distantly -- to Vice President Dick Cheney.

"I have to ask about your family," Leno quipped. "Dick Cheney, you and he are eighth cousins."

"People have been doing these genealogical studies of me, and I've got all kinds of rogues in my background," the candidate responded, "You're always hoping for, you know, kings and great leaders."

Sen. Obama added that he was "OK with" being related to Cheney, but noted that he wasn't eager to be "invited to the family hunting party."

His wife said something about every family has a black sheep (e.g. Cheney).

Hi Mr. Kitty long time no hear from.

Obama knows Cheney would shoot him without giving it a second thought. Yes and nothing would happen as Cheney would say he thought Obama was a bird.
