Today's Baltimore Examiner has an excerpt from Bill Sammon's new book, "Meet the Next President":

"Barack Obama once came close to injecting heroin, but balked when a junkie pulled out the needle . . . . Obama and Mitt Romney are descended from polyamous great-grandfathers who had five wives apiece. Rudy Giuliani's first wife was his second cousin."

"Normally, such a marriage would require dispensation from the Catholic Church, but Rudy and [wife] Regina never raised the issue of their common ancestry and were married in 1968 in a Catholic ceremony . . ."

"I was under the impression that we were third cousins because I never calculated the lines of consangunity," Benito told the Examiner.

"The unusual union raises questions about a 'weirdness factor,'" writes Sammon.
