Man I didn't realize there were still biological components left to his heart.
 
I hope in the end it isn't anything too serious. A person's health is more important than his political views.

You are right on that. I can't stand Dick Cheney, but I could never stoop so low that I wish him ill. I hope he makes a quick recovery. THEN I will bash the crap out of him some more. :mrgreen:

Yep the OMG Cheney still has a heart jokes comes after he leaves.

I think waterboarding would be more appropriate than bashing the crap out of him. :lol: It's not torture right? :)

Please get well soon Dick. We'll have the water tank and towel ready. :mrgreen:
 
He is a good Conservative....I wish him well...........
 
Dude's basically Devil Incarnate but get better Mister Vice President.

.... please don't shoot me.

Not really. He's a big govt. neocon. Do your homework.

Plus you should really hate him b/c he's pro-gay.

Only because God has a sense of humor and gave him a gay daughter. :lol: Otherwise he would have probably been a rabid homophobe. :shock:
 
I do not care for his politics, nor for him as a person, but certainly not enough to wish poor health on. Get well soon sir.
 
I wish him well....gotta keep him in shape for Nuremberg. :2wave:

That might have been unnecessary. Comparing him to those tried at Nuremberg is pretty harsh.

You could be right, maybe The Hague would be more appropriate.
 
With his money he should have hired a private dietian and a private trainer and with a height around 5'8" -5'9" with weight >210 shaved off maybe 40 pounds........................

I always find it surprizing someone with money who lets his health go to crap.

I can't imagine how fun it would be to train and then come home where someone has made me a healthy delicious meal compared to grabbing something out of the frig that is quick to make.

Train and then go home? Dude, your undershooting. I'd have a state of the art gym, basketball court, pool etc, so that I could workout then literally hop in the pool to cool down while being served grilled chicken wraps...

I stand corrected.

Yes, he would have his own gym and pool. Plus some 20 something female attendants so that he was always sucking in his gut which would be like always doing stomach crunches.

Big government, big deficit, big war, big brother, statist government is what he means by "conservative". It has nothing to do with the classical political theory of smaller, controlled, responsible government.
 
Glad he is resting comfortably. The GOP probably needs him to continue his work as a networker. He was damn skilled at it, and well, still is as far as we can tell.

Not everyone in their senior years maintain a desire to keep working out. I spent the first fifty years of my life training and competing in various sports. But now in my late 50s, I'm tired of it. Maybe someday it will come back to where I enjoy good hard workouts, but right now I just don't have it.

Get well, Dick.

I agree. BTW, I didn't know Dick Cheney even had a heart.

And having a heart condition can add to that lack of desire. The meds can too.
