Mar.26.2008 Obama and Brad Pitt are practically brothers
Well I guess Barack Obama is already a brother but still. Some genealogy researchers have found odd familial ties for the Presidential candidates.
This could make for one odd family reunion: Barack Obama is a distant cousin of actor Brad Pitt, and Hillary Rodham Clinton is related to Pitt’s girlfriend, Angelina Jolie.
Researchers at the New England Historic Genealogical Society found some remarkable family connections for the three presidential candidates — Democratic rivals Obama and Clinton, and Republican John McCain.
Clinton, who is of French-Canadian descent on her mother’s side, is also a distant cousin of singers Madonna, Celine Dion and Alanis Morissette. Obama, the son of a white woman from Kansas and a black man from Kenya, can call six U.S. presidents, including George W. Bush, his cousins. McCain is a sixth cousin of first lady Laura Bush.
“You’d think with all that singing talent in the family she’d be able to carry a tune,” Clinton’s senior adviser Philippe Reines said. “But now it makes much more sense how she snagged a Grammy.”
This is kind of stupid. Yeah we’re all from the same like two or three people, who exchanged jizms and sweet I love yous and awkward cumshots and perhaps condom breakage and an attempted purchase of Plan B pills but the Duane Reade down the block didn’t carry it and then you tried to find it but they were out all over town and you’re like, “Oh fuck,” so then you tell her you love her but say you’re not ready to have a kid so you talk her into getting an abortion and there’s a couple weeks to think about it and she decides she’s going to keep the baby but is afraid to tell you so she pretend she was getting the abortion but she didn’t get it, she didn’t get it at all and then ten months later you see her pushing around a baby in the supermarket and you’re like “You lying whore” and then realize your child is related to Barack Obama. It happens all the time.
