I wish Cheney a speedy and full recovery. According to a report I saw, he has a 70% chance of living 5 more years and a 50-50 shot of 10+ years.

Richard DeVos, who is the founder of AmWay and owner of the Orlando Magic, had a heart transplant in 1997 at age 71 and is still going strong at age 85, so he might be around a while longer.

He and daughter Mary have always had a mutually supportive relationship, and he's told her critics to fuck off.

Yup - and his stance on LGBT equality is far more progressive than Obama's
