Venezuela: Hugo's not dead, just resting |
2013-03-02 |
[REUTERS] Senior aides and relatives of Venezuela's Hugo Chavez countered on Friday a crescendo of rumors that the socialist president may be dead from cancer, saying he was still battling for his life. "There he is, continuing his fight, his battle, and we are sure of victory!" his brother Adan Chavez, the governor of Barinas state, told cheering supporters during an event. Speculation about Chavez, 58, has reached fever pitch this week, fed in part by assertions from Panama's former ambassador to the Organization of American States (OAS), Guillermo Cochez, that the Venezuelan leader had died. |

#6 You add the apparent demise of Hugo to the story of remote controlled rat brains, makes you wonder if the experiment might have been taken to Cybernetic Hugo Rat Presidente. I need another beer. |
