I just heard from a local radio reporter (during Rush newsbreak at approximately 1:00 p.m) that Whittington "may have taken a turn for the worse," and was put back into intensive care.

To be put in ICU in the first place indicates that the wounds were somewhat more serious than being peppered.

"Man, I hope he doesn't die. The press would have a field day. Even if it wasn't due to the shotgun pellets, it would be a circus." No reasonable person is going to hold this tragic accident against Dick Chaney if Whittington dies. All the usual cockroaches will crawl out of their dank crevices to pounce on Cheney, like the anti-gun lobby, the heartless, gutless liberals and the like. But most Americans will be turned off by their crass, opportunistic scavenging on the bones of Mr. Whittington.

Press conference on Fox now. It's true, but I'm unclear on reason.
Sorry I can't post a summary. I'm in the middle of cooking for a 1 pm meeting!

It shouldn't. Whittington has had a minor heart attack because the shot has moved and lodged in his heart.

Docs picked up on an irregular heartbeat. Will keep him another week. May be totally unrelated to accident.

Minor heart attack?
Probably the stress from all the press hounding him and his family.

Per presser on Fox:
Currently in stable condition.
Piece of birdshot in heart caused minor heart attack.
Patient had no symptoms, but docs picked up on irregular heartbeat.
Doctor explaining more now.
To: sissyjane
He is asymptomatic. Has birdshot in his heart. Will keep him in the hospital for a week.
Caused inflammatory changes has called heart irregularity.

FNC has News Conference is saying some of the brid shot moved into his heart and caused him to have a minor heart attack
Saying that he is saying that he feels fine and asked to go home .. having no pain
But doctors want to keep him in the hospital for another 7 days for observation

I heard the same thing during a break on the Laura Ing show a couple hours ago on ABC newstalk, but couldn't find a second source.

I didn't mention reasonable people, though. Just the press.

He's 78 years old, so this is very scary.

Amen!
Not removing birdshot, taking a conservative approach, not exactly sure where it is.
Age is a factor.

It is related. Bird shot found in his heart. Will treat conservatively, without surgery. Surg has too many risks for a 78 yr old.
