And you thought it was strange to hear that Barack Obama was related to Dick Cheney. Well, betcha can't guess who he's related to now!

Yup — the president has family ties to none other than Sarah Palin, according to the genealogists at Ancestry.com, a discovery the family history site made when looking for connections between political foes.

And that's not all — Obama also is apparently related to radio host and relentless critic Rush Limbaugh. Might you want to reconsider some of your recent comments, Mr. Limbaugh, now that you're apparently family?

The irony in all of this is thick. . . and ripe. . .

Wait until Glenn Beck finds out he is also related to Obama!

If they'll do that to blood family, what do you think they'll do to us?

Well I guess we can all start questioning their American status since they are related to Obama right?

And their religion as well!

I think the whole thing sounds incestuous.

Depends on which state you're in.

I am a direct descendant of Dale Dribble, one of the actors on King of the Hill, whose cousin Rusty Shackleford is my 3rd cousin. I know the readers will be skeptical but I get my looks from my mother's side of the family. They all have broad hips and lots of facial hair, mostly the women but sometimes a male like me comes along.
