Former Vice President Dick Cheney was hospitalized yesterday afternoon after "experiencing discomfort," according to the AP. It's unknown is Cheney's condition if related to his long history of heart issues (he was hospitalized in February for a fifth "mild" heart attack), but his spokesman Peter Long said the 69-year-old would probably remain at George Washington Hospital over the weekend. Fox News has a rundown of Cheney's health issues—he had his first heart attack at age 37. Recently, Cheney has slammed Obama for his oil spill response.
