Cheney Admitted to Hospital for Heart Problem

Vice President Dick Cheney, 66, who has a history of heart troubles, was getting checked out for a lingering cough when he was found to have an irregular heartbeat and an atrial fibrillation (an abnormal rhythm in the upper chamber of the heart). He's checking into George Washington University hospital for further evaluation and is expected to be treated and released tonight. Pray for the veep and for us all. Without him, Bush becomes acting president. [AFP via Breitbart]
