July 7, 2005, 3:19 PM EDT

WASHINGTON -- Vice President Dick Cheney will undergo a routine exam Friday to check the condition of a high-tech pacemaker that was placed in his chest in June 2001.

Cheney spokeswoman Lea Anne McBride said the tests at George Washington University Medical Center would include a physical exam, an electrocardiogram, an echocardiogram and a stress test. The vice president planned to be back at work later in the day, she said.



"It's a routine physical," she said. She said the vice president also would have a colonoscopy later this month. "trying to find the heart" my quote

Cheney has had four heart attacks, though none as vice president. His last checkup was in May 2004, and determined that his pacemaker, called an implantable cardioverter defibrillator, was working fine and had never had to be activated.

8. i hope they pump him full of that phosfo soda before the colonoscopy

i hope he has a miserable time w/ it.

as for the stress test, if it's a treadmill test ( probably not - but one can hope, ) i hope they crank that baby as high as it goes. just the thought of that evil creature on a treadmill going 20mph makes me laugh.

9. I guess the young child donor is finally old enough

Why, Dick looks good as new!
What's the point of these games anyway? Do they think the midwest will break out in rioting if they know Cheney had another heart attack?
