MSNBC: Cheney en route to hospital.

Why? It's all speculation at this point.

Deep venous thrombosis is a condition where there is a blood clot in a deep vein (a vein that accompanies an artery).

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000156.htm

any updates? clots moving? :D

clot condition......me thinks if this visit to the hospital to see the doctor was scheduled in advance it would have been a good idea for the administration to announce it to keep the speculation down unless it's a diversion.....are they just stupid?......never mind, I just answered my own question.:evilgrin:

clot is coursing through a critical capillary somewhere. Cheney is an evil fucker for what he has done to this country.

Just what the doctor ordered - long flights sitting in airline seats.

Please-please-please-please-please-please-please-please-please-please-please.....

Poor little Dickie having an anxiety attack? :sarcasm:

but :rofl:

:rofl:

Dennis will ask to start impeaching this V.P. I thought he was starting articles of impeachment against bush?

He's having a thrombosis, but it ain't his veins. :evilgrin:

Maybe uncka dick wants to be in the hospital for the "emergency drill" time frame.

to infuse his dead heart with and the blood clot is a cover.

musn't damage karma.

thank you for the reminder

in between the clots and her heart and her brain.

RE: cheney... he will get the BEST health care in the world. I'm not worried about him. Well, not about his health. I worry about what new damage he will inflict upon the Constitution and the nation.

Tomorrow's gonna suck.

leaving DC

moment

Heh heh heh.

transfusion? :shrug:

I wish him nothing but bad things, the worse the better.

Nothing to see here; move along.

It's routine maintenance.

I know. It's cold.

He's gotta get that formaldehyde transfused regularly or he starts to smell bad...

now, it is a doctor visit, not an ER visit.

considering that he travels with no less than 70 heavily armed special forces-trained secret service folks, AND a full rolling hospital at all times, even this is a change.

but I agree, I smell a rovian plot here:

Desiring that Darth designate a date w/ the doc on the day that dennis deigns to destroy this dickhead.

;-)

:rofl:

God's will be done.

or is our sick media going to be playing the violin for Cheney, while articles of impeachment is going to impeach his a$$.

can you hear it now, how insensitive those Democratic Reps are!!!

God's will be done.

pretty timely dick. :eyes:

is I hate that evil fucker.

out!! just for a Drs. appt. oh well, one can only hope.

Oh if you could only hear my prayer...

that much is obvious.

I think it was surgically removed when they treated his gonorrhea and hemerrhoids.

Heaven forbid he got too close to a wooden stake.

With Cheney's history of health problems, and recent vein issues, I think he might be forming plans to stepping down.


:D

can keep his press conference appointment.

:hi:

Of course, I don't know, betting against crash cart being an ill man is like betting against the sun.

you dont go to a hospital for a check-up. Thrombosis is a serious health condition that can very quickly lead to heart attacks.

with mold and crumbling plaster.

:P

the most evil man in America is making me ill.

Sheesh, the news media needs a collective kick upside the head.

That is just the fucking epitome of what's wrong with our fucked up country at this time.

You know we're living in some kind of quasi-dictatorship when this kind of insane rambling is posted on a major media site.

OMG! Breaking News: Dick Cheney has gas!

offers cervix with a smile.:evilgrin:

they'll just plant him in front of a bookcase, cover him in makeup, with rosy cheeks, and then attach a string to one corner of his mouth, ala Weekend At Bernies. :)

Otherwise, there'd be no end of whining by McCain (Straight Jacket Express) and Joe the FAKE DEMOCRAT, for his job.

Then Bush could steal Cheney's keys to the big vault he has in a secret location, and SWIM in the Money, Like Scrooge McDuck - C'mon, you KNOW they do that, don't you? :)

This was done precisely because of Kucinich's news conference today.
Here's the spin.
"While that poor ill Cheney is at the hospital, the Dems attack him. They really are low."

:evilgrin:

Edit...As seen on TV...

:scared:

It's purely routine.

(04-24) 06:36 PDT WASHINGTON, (AP) --

Vice President Dick Cheney was taken to his doctor's office Tuesday for a checkup of the blood clot in his left leg, a spokeswoman said.

On March 5, doctors discovered that Cheney had a clot, called a deep venous thrombosis, in his left lower leg. "He's going to get his leg checked out," spokeswoman Megan McGinn said...

Darth Cheney will be back to do more evil in no time flat. So what else is new?

I apologize for not being able to muster any generosity.

could you?

Impeachment of Cheney brought forth by Kucinich today and he goes to the hospital....

These neocons make me sick. Bunch of cowardly bullies.

He'd better not die first.

Just a thought.

I'll graciously spare my thoughts.

sigh. fucker's still alive. :(

Cheney's long histories of cardiovascular disease and periodic need for urgent health care have raised the question of whether he is medically fit to serve as Vice President. Formerly a heavy smoker, Cheney sustained the first of four heart attacks in 1978, at age 37. Subsequent attacks in 1984, 1988, and 2000 have resulted in moderate contractile dysfunction of his left ventricle. He underwent four-vessel coronary artery bypass grafting in 1988, coronary artery stenting in November 2000, and urgent coronary balloon angioplasty in March 2001.


In 2001, a Holter monitor disclosed brief episodes of (asymptomatic) ectopy. An electrophysiologic study was performed, at which Cheney was found to be inducible. An implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) was therefore implanted in his left upper anterior chest.<58> As of 2004, it has never discharged.

On September 24, 2005, Cheney had an endo-vascular procedure to repair popliteal artery aneurysms bilaterally, a catheter treatment technique used in the artery behind each knee. The condition was discovered at a regular physical in July, and, while not life-threatening itself, is likely an indicator that Cheney's atherosclerotic disease is progressing despite aggressive treatment.<59>

On January 9, 2006, Cheney was taken to the hospital for tests after experiencing shortness of breath. He was given heart tests and tests for retention of water (he had been retaining water due to medication he had been taking for a foot complaint) before being discharged. He was placed on a diuretic to help get rid of the fluids.

On March 5, 2007, Cheney was treated for deep-vein thrombosis in his left leg at George Washington University. He was taken there after experiencing pain in his left calf. Doctors prescribed blood-thinning medication and he was allowed to return to work.<60>

Cheney occasionally requires the use of a cane for walking. This, according to Cheney, is due to a foot condition and is unrelated to his cardiovascular disease.

but perhaps they ran out of blood in the frdge

The surprise put him in cardiac arrest. :eyes:

unless they made a mistake when they had "live" on the screen.

:rofl::rofl: What a fucking LOSER he is! Maybe he'll stay in the damn hospital until Jan., 2009 and Kucinich won't be able to IMPEACH HIS ASS. Gee! I wonder if this was PLANNED?:eyes:
