[http://www.nashvillescene.com/Stories/Columns/The_Fabricator/2005/10/13/_em_Fit_Like_Dick_em_Postponed/index.shtml Cheney’s fitness book timing “still not right”]
Fit Like Dick, the diet and exercise book written by Vice President Dick Cheney, has had its release postponed yet again in the face of its author’s continuing health problems. The long-delayed book was postponed for the first time after Cheney had his fourth heart attack in 2000.According to earlier reports from a source who’s seen the book’s galleys, Cheney draws on his experiences in Congress, as defense secretary during the Gulf War, and as a Halliburton executive to illustrate the benefits of a balanced diet, exercise and a proper mental attitude. “I would often direct bombing raids against Saddam while walking on my treadmill at the Pentagon, sometimes munching on a low-fat turkey sandwich,” Cheney writes.
The Thomas Nelson executive remains hopeful about the eventual release of the book. “We will bring out Fit Like Dick, and it will sell very well. We just need to get him healthy enough.”
