    http://indyposted.com/33697/dick-cheney-has-no-pulse/ It has been undeniably established that Dick Cheney does in fact have a heart. It doesnt work very well, and Cheney has no pulse.

    But that was the plan. Cheneys blood flow to his vital organs is helped by a pump that pushes the blood around his body continuously.

    Known as ventricular assist devices, the models dont pulse the blood out of the heart. Therefore Cheney has no discernible pulse.

    The pumper does not replace the heart and are considered risky and a stop-gap until a heart transplant donor is located. Five million people have failing hearts. Many, near the end, cannot live a normal lifestyle and are confined to a chair or a bed.

    Cheneys non-pulse device is a HeartMate II made by Thoratec of Pleasanton, Calif., sells the device and would not disclose how many have been implanted in the United States. Nor would they share the cost of such a device.
