Washington (CNN)— Vice President Dick Cheney, who has a history of heart ailments dating back to age 37, finished his annual physical exam Saturday morning with no problems detected.
Spokeswoman Megan Mitchell said the 67-year old’s “cardiac status remains stable.”
Cheney underwent a series of tests that showed no sign of a recurrence of the irregular heart beat detected by physicians in November 2007 - later determined to be atrial fibrillation.
The routine check-up, which occurred at George Washington University Hospital in Washington, DC, also included a physical exam, an electrocardiogram, and an “imaging of the stents placed in the arteries behind his knees in 2005,” said Mitchell.
Mr. Cheney is said to have returned to the Naval Observatory where he will resume his normal schedule

It's because he has done nothing for this country (other than destroy it). "W" has done all the dirty work.
All WAH Liberals!

Dang! Just kidding. I don't wish poor health on him, just a quick and not-so-graceful exit.
PG, it's the other way around. Bush is Rove and Cheney's puppet.

***************************************************************************
I don't know how he sleep at NIGHT!!!
Darth Vader will be kept alive permanently with mechanical electrical machines, Haliburton and Big Oil need him to continue to work on their behalf and so he can cash in the remaining 10's of millions from his CEO severance package.
Stay until your cousin Obama moves into the white house.
Cheney has a heart?
Despite for my dislike for Mr. Cheney and my absolute disgust for his politics, I can not wish him ill-health.
I hope Mr. Cheney has a long and happy life with his family when he leaves office.
What heart?????????????
Ummm do't you have to HAVE a Heart for it to be a problem?
He just have to be careful not to provide just cause to begin impeachment proceeding against him now.
Go Obama go.
So, who cares.
Does he have a heart?
Dick Cheny"s heart might be beating okay as far as the doctors evaluation is concerned, but he has a "heart of stone" that shows no care, consideration, or empathy for people other than himself.
