Cheney Visits Hospital for Tests

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Vice President Dick Cheney, who has a history of heart attacks, went to a Washington hospital on Saturday after experiencing shortness of breath but later left for home and said he was fine.


According to sources, Cheney later issued a statement through his spokesman Sen. Patrick Leahy saying, either "f--- off" or "go f--- yourself."


Cheney would not confirm using the word.
"That's not the kind of language I usually use," the vice president said in an interview.
When asked if he had cursed at Leahy, Cheney answered, "Probably."
"Do you have any regrets?," Neil Cavuto asked.
"No. I said it," the vice president responded.
