Dick Cheney Hospitalized

Former Vice President Dick Cheney has been admitted to the hospital.

Cheney was taken to George Washington University Hospital in Washington, D.C. on Friday after experiencing discomfort, and he's expected to remain there over the weekend, his spokesman tells the Associated Press.

The news agency says Cheney was feeling ill earlier in the day, so he visited his doctors at the university and was subsequently advised to check in to the hospital.
