BBC NEWS | World | Americas | Cheney, Obama 'distant cousins'
Is Mr Cheney trying to get some newspaper inches by getting his wife to say that hes distantly related to the democratic hopeful whos getting a lot of newspaper inches and even getting on tv over here - Panorama did a programme on him. Most people would say 8th cousin not a relation. Are they trying to discredit him? Trying to show that Dick Cheney is 'cool'? Or is it that they think if hes leading the democrats that the republicans are out they'd prefer to have hilary clinton that way then they can say look at what her husband did - you want her in charge?
