Obama related to Palin & Limbaugh
Too funny if true.
Quote:
"Obama and Palin are 10th cousins through common ancestor John Smith," the site reported on Wednesday.
Also newly added to Obama's family tree is vociferous conservative talk show host Limbaugh.
"Perhaps Rush will ease up on the president when he learns they are actually 10th cousins once removed via common ancestor Richmond Terrell."

I am confused how that has any bearing on anything, other than pointing out that people are related to each other. Somewhere a many years ago, someone had sex with someone and they made a kid. That kid had a cousin who had a a bunch of kids and so on until one kid became the president of the US. The other one had the same thing happen except that the end result was an often spoofed character in porn films who had ink smugged on her hand (not related to the porn films, I assure you).
Riveting tale, for sure...

More correctly, I am wondering why it was important enough to go into the Sun.

I'm nothing like my cousins and, as a result, we enjoy tormenting each other on occasion . . . . . however, I do not think that is big news.
All that means is a verification of the ancient saying, "you can choose your friends but you can't choose your relatives."

Couldn't most people in North America be connected through 10 degrees of separation?

I saw a story on the weekend on the Sun's website about Carrie Fisher "revealing" that she did cocaine while on the set of The Empire Strikes Back. Nothing they publish/post will surprise me.

Carrie Fisher on coke is a pretty important revelation though. Imagine all the nerds who have a coke head fetish that now have an outlet.

That's the thing, it wasn't a revelation, people have known she was on coke during the Star Wars films for at least 25 years. This was a "news" story on the Sun's site within the last couple of days.

Wasn't there an article during the 08 prez election that Obama was related to the Bush family (or maybe it was the McCain family)?
Not even sure what constitutes a 10th cousin. Even by the time you get to the 2nd cousin the family tree is massive.
We're probably all related within 12 or 14 cousins.
