So, Dick Cheney and Barack Obama are 8th cousins. There’s not much that I can say to add to that, but there is something that I can sing (to the tune of the Patty Duke Show Theme Song):
Meet Barack, who’s lived as you can see,
From Jakarta to Hawaii.
But Dickey’s only seen the sight.
A goon can see while avoiding sunlight
What a crazy pair!
From Jakarta to Hawaii.
But Dickey’s only seen the sight.
A goon can see while avoiding sunlight
What a crazy pair!
But they’re cousins,
Identical cousins all the way.
One pair of matching bookends,
Different as night and day.
Where Barack adores a good debate,
True equality, and fighting hate,
Our Dickey loves to play the troll,
And babies blood makes him lose control —
What a wild duet!
Still, they’re cousins,
Identical cousins and you’ll find,
They laugh alike, they walk alike,
At times they even talk alike —
You can lose your mind,
When cousins are two of a kind.
