A White House official says President Obama spoke to former President Bill Clinton shortly before 7pm Thursday evening and wished him a speedy recovery.  The 63 year old former president entered the hospital after experiencing chest pains and received treatment for a blocked artery.  Mr. Obama told Mr. Clinton that the efforts in Haiti were too important for him to be laid up for too long and hopes he'll be ready to get back to work as soon as possible. President Clinton said he was feeling "absolutely great".
