Former President George W. Bush went to visit his former right-hand man, Vice President Cheney at his home in McLean, Virginia this afternoon, according to Bush’s spokesman, David Sherzer. The two spent about an hour talking and shared coffee. It was the first time the two were together since last year’s inauguration.
The former Vice President was scheduled to appear with Mr. Bush at a breakfast reunion on Friday for former Bush administration staffers but the former Vice President had to cancel his attendance after his heart attack earlier this week.
Sherzer says President Bush looks forward to giving everyone an update on how he and Mrs. Bush are spending their time, including how he’s doing on his memoirs and on developing the George W. Bush Presidential Center in Dallas.
In addition to the breakfast being sponsored by the Bush-Cheney Alumni Association, President Bush will attend the Marine Corps University Foundation Gala this evening, where he is being honored.
