I'm sure everyone has heard that VP Dick Chaney was admitted to a hospital this morning for shortness of breath.

I vaugely remember some photo op stuff done a couple of years ago when the V-Rod first came out. I think Chaney was there at the HD plant praising the rebirth of American industry and Harley coming out with the new bike design to carry it into the future.

Yeah, I saw that.  It was recent, like last week.  Don't recall what it was about. [smiley=nixweiss.gif]Later--HUBBARD

Cheney was in Kansas City and did the administration's "new economy" speech at the plant before getting a tour and doing the meet-and-greet with HD workers.  He was there before making a quick hop over Ft. Leavenworth for a security and thank the troops presentation.

That was an easy one.  The VP's press schedule is part of a news feed I get.  So that info was already here inside my computer somewhere.  The speeches themselves are in this clutter somewhere.  [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

Don,

 The time alone it takes to read up on things, participate actively in this entire forum, ride, eat, sleep and take care life's other tasks is what amazes me most....how do you juggle everything?

 Must 36 hours in your day !

Jan 06 visit, see VRXSE in background w/nitro bottle or maybe Oxygen for VP?
Here's link: http://www.whitehouse.gov/vicepresident/ then you just do H-D visit speech/visit, etc. if you want all the details. Caption reads:
"Vice President Dick Cheney wears a leather jacket given to him by Harley-Davidson CEO Jim Ziemer after touring the motorcycle plant and delivering remarks to the company

Bet they didn't have a Q&A or press avail with those guys behind him that work hard on "so much of what is best in the American economy: the hard work, the commitment to quality, and the optimism that drives us forward.

Had to find this Dick Cheney thread.  Wonder who was the first guy to "accidentally" call him Aaron or Mr. Burr to his face yesterday or today  ;D
