    They can bring in Morales from a neighbouring country, a friend of Chavez.

    Not as convincing as bringing in Capriles, the head of the Opposition. That would easily done and all that was needed to allay suspicions

    if he were alive.

    More talk..........still no videos, nor any CONVINCING non-staged pictures.
    There's no way in hell he's still alive, because if he were, the pro-Chavez gov would LOVE to post proof. The fact that they WON'T, is proof that they CAN'T, because we all know they'd love nothing more than prove the naysayers wrong.

    I would think death is the most serious relapse, especially to the existing regime.

    Amazing that a foreign government seems to know more than the Venezuelan people know about their OWN president.

    I'd say something smells fishy but I'm pretty sure that rotting corpses smell worse than that.

    There was a big protest in Venezuela yesterday because the people are not being given accurate information, just rumour and counter-rumour.

    I am pretty certain the reason Morales and CFK were not allowed to see Chavez is precisely because they would blab.

    Chavez is in a vegetative state and propping him up with his daughters and a newspaper isn't going to change that.

    “Speaking after a Catholic Mass to pray for Chavez's health,”

    Now they MUST be desperate.

    “This does not mean Chavez would have overcome his health condition but would have certainly not been exposed to so much pain and suffering.”

    Ah well! The more pain and suffering this bastard has will not even begin to make reparations for the heartache he has caused his country.

    Pray the Venezuelan people see through the intimidation tactics that Maduro is using, he is only strong while Chavez is alive, what a horrible leader he would be!!!!

    It doesn't really matter if Chavez is alive or dead, his power is waiting. His influence dropping. His people praying.

    That's gotta hurt..... especially if he is alive and knows it. Actually now that I think about it, I hope he is alive and grinding his teeth and how far he has fallen.

    While there is no definitive proof as to his death or alive status, considering he has not made his inauguration, not been seem in 3 months, his presidente allies have not been allowed to see him, I am siding with actual death or brain dead. Either way, he is gone....kaput, finished, over the hill, on the boothill expressway.

    ARgentina news is reporting the official annoucement of his death imminent. Also Maduro is blaming it on the CIA

    The only thing Dead Man Now Dead has kicked is the bucket.

    For someone who does not understand the awesome power of a British Astute Class submarine I will have to explain the joke.

    When somebody who nobody likes dies, they say “he has kicked the bucket!”

    Enjoy.

    I would say that Chavez being alive is definitely OUCH and it definitely has GOT TO HURT.

    Ouch! That's got to hurt!

    Hardly worth a comment. The man is dead or dying. It is just a matter of time.

    Damn! He died.

    Mercopress closed the comments section on his death article. Wonder why?

    Well, unfortunately his suffering is over but his people's is still going.

    Do you wish to detract your posting or do you believe your own words in spite of the evidence ? You seem to be quite skilled in getting wrong everything you post !

    You are so right Anglotino.....his suffering ends yet his people's goes on. He got off easy.
