Are these stories not converging? Since at least Feb 22, Chavez was unable to make decisions.

But some military guy said Chavez mouthed last words right before passing on?

Now the real story is coming out. Sounds like he was permanently incapacitated a lot earlier than his death. So much for that annoyingly small thing called a constitution.

Also..... cancer of the arse! Boy the things I could say but won't..... publicly.

“Cristina had the right to go in and see him with Chavez daughters but she declined because she preferred to keep the image of the Chavez she had known: a robust Chavez and not a frail and sick Chavez”,

...or perhaps she believed the clams that he had been ”infected” with cancer and was worried about catching it.

@8 I think it's because fornication was out of the question. She even makes a cheap dramatic spectacle out of something that is supposed to be private. If you care about someone, even if it is an insane tub of guts, which she doesn't, you visit them even if they are full of tubes.

I bet Chavez spent that last days of his life in regret for associating with such a filthy harlot.

Do you think it's because she realised that he wouldn't “react” to a blow job? The way he usually recognised her?

#1, #9,10 Utterly despicable comments, wish you could see yourself as others see you but you're too caught up in spite and bile...

#2 No, it shows that even in a slightly different style from usual (more formal, less youthful looking) she is still hugely beautiful. And Chavez as ever being the perfect gentleman. You people really can't stnad the thought of a strong radical woman can you...

She would have frightened him to death anyway! One look from that botoxed face is enough to scare anybody.

@11 It is impossible to be be both British AND a Kirchnerist!
