At least he's not related to John Kerry.

Ping!

[Shion]

I wonder if the prof. has an inexplicable attraction to furry hats.

[JennysCool]

Maybe just reminiscent of Genghis Khan.

[Aetius]

I wonder if we'll ever see the media use the following line; "Though a DEMOCRAT, his politics are moderate."

[demlosers]

Genghis Khan developed a mounted professional army of 200,000 men,

He did much more 'mounting'. ;)

I'm related to Ghengis Khan through Kevin Bacon.

[G Larry]

Yep!
Ol Genghis,....one of my more liberal cousins....

(for those who have trouble detecting my jokes, that was one there)

[Hebrews 11:6]

Yeah, well, I'm descended from Noah, so there.

[stands2reason]

A Robinson descended from Genghis Khan...

Any relation, Jim?

[MarkL]

My Step-mother once dated Jackie Mason...

Does that make me famous?

Mark

[GingisK]

My namesake.

Though a Republican, his politics are moderate.

The insinuation is that Genghis Khan would have aligned himself with the Republican Party had it been in existence in his day. More MSM crap!

[Cicero]

Any man who is interested in finding out whether he is descended from Genghis Khan can be tested by Oxford Ancestors for £195.

What, no takers?

[PandaRosaMishima]

Okay, who wants to be the first to compare the Genghis bloodline to the descendants of Christ as outlined in the DaVinci Code? C'mon, there has got to be more than just one, folks!

[opinionator]

I’ve been reading a lot about him since I found out about the link, and it does seem that his reputation is a little unfair.

“He conquered a lot of countries, but he had a pretty good system of government.”

I'm sure they will say the same thing about Hitler, 700 years from now.

[Montfort]

"Genghis Khan lived from about 1162 to 1227 and fathered hundreds or even thousands of children as his armies swept across the continent. This makes him by far the most probable source of the common chromosome."

Yeah. Like he was the only one fathering kids with the conquered local women. The 200k horsemen who rode with were all eunuchs, I guess.

[RightOnline]

"Any man who is interested in finding out whether he is descended from Genghis Khan can be tested by Oxford Ancestors for £195."

Uh-huh.....and for about half again as much, they can f**king guarantee a match.

Suckers.

[HighWheeler]

"...Genghis Khan may have fathered thousands of children,..."

JenJhis must have also been handy at lopping of lawyer's heads.

[Liberal_in_Austin]

Very interesting story, I Myself would much rather trace my ancestry back too Alexander the Great. Now that Man laid the foundation for the Roman Empire.
