*“Doctors have already told the Chávez family that he will not recover.
Venezuelan government to announce in the next few days the incapacity of
the president, who has lost his voice.”*

O RLY? Film at 11… <http://www.aporrea.org/medios/n222997.html>

*The Spanish newspaper ABC claims to be certain of the deteriorating health
of Bolivarian leader Hugo Chávez, and affirms that he is no longer in any
fit condition to govern. The latest article, called an “exclusive” by the
paper, attempts to reawaken controversy over the future of Chávez.*
*

According to ABC, the Venezuelan leader has lost his voice, and will not
recover; the Government of Venezuela could make the announcement of the
president’s incapacity in the coming days.

This information comes just as the president marks three months since his
departure for Cuba, where he is receiving treatment for cancer.

Chávez’s health has spawned other so-called “exclusives”, even though the
information published has all turned out to be false.

Near the end of January, another Spanish daily, El País, published a photo,
claiming it was a picture of Chávez intubated on a hospital bed.

However, it was actually a capture from a video on medical practices
published on YouTube in 2008, showing a patient physically resembling the
Venezuelan head of state.

Venezuelan authorities termed that action a “transnational media power
offensive against the Bolivarian Revolution and Comandante Chávez, a
campaign using the press as spearhead.”

According to numerous experts, this type of media attack against the
Venezuelan president will not cease until Hugo Chávez reappears in public.
*

*In the opinion of political analyst Basem Tajeldine, the major
international media are “experts in manipulation, entrapment, and lies.”
Tajeldine adds that “we have already seen in the past how they have taken a
line of action in demonizing the Bolivarian Revolution.”*

Translation mine.

Meanwhile, what arrives in my inbox today but

, 
this<http://www.policymic.com/articles/25326/hugo-chavez-loses-his-voice-venezuelan-president-is-unable-to-recover-from-cancer>
 and 
this<http://zeenews.india.com/news/world/after-2-months-absent-still-no-sign-of-hugo-chavez_828295.html>
…all,
basically, just anglo media douchebags, pimping the hell out of the bogus
“exclusive”. Haven’t they learned *anything* from the
disgrace<http://www.sabinabecker.com/2013/01/walter-martinez-debunks-a-disgusting-rumor.html>
 of *El País*?

Nope…apparently not.

So why are they making asses of themselves yet again? Well, it’s all in an
effort to sow confusion and doubt, and maybe build support for a US-led
“democracy promotion” effort that could only result in another fascist
coup, like the one in Honduras in ’09. (Or the failed one in Venezuela, in
’02. The one that turned around in less than 48 hours. How soon they
forget!)

But really, what they’re doing is just a vast waste of money, time and
effort. If they were smart, they’d cut it the fuck out and just stick to
plain old reporting. But that would mean reporting that Venezuela is now
long accustomed to REAL democracy and independence, rather than banana
republicanism and oil-state client status. The people have
spoken;<http://venezuelanalysis.com/analysis/7642> Chávez
or no Chávez, the revolution is going to go on, and the Bolivarian
constitution is not about to be circumvented by any opposition calls for
new elections. Even if he doesn’t make it back, his vice-president is still
legally authorized to govern in his place…and if he becomes unable to carry
out his duties, the president of the National Assembly will take over, per
the constitution. Like it or not, Venezuela will never again be ruled by a
US-friendly puppet dictator (masquerading as a “democrat”!) from the
oligarchy.

And the Venezuelan people will not be swayed by Operation
Mockingbird<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird>,
either; they are so onto the CIA and its media
gambits<http://venezuelanalysis.com/analysis/7595> that
it’s downright hilarious to see shit like this still going on at this late
stage of the game (and in the age of Wikileaks, too!)

I would also like to point out here that Chávez has just recovered from a
respiratory infection, and that his much-trumpeted loss of voice is
actually just a temporary result of having been
intubated<http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16905292> for
a longer period of time. When he had the infection, the crapagandists were
already writing his obituary, prematurely. If he were really going to die,
I expect that a respiratory infection would have been enough to do it.
Pneumonia, when fatal, is a rapid killer; it takes most of its victims
within hours or
days,<http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/rxforsurvival/series/diseases/pneumonia.html>
not
weeks…or *two fucking months.* That’s the amount of time it takes to *clear* in
someone whose immune system is
compromised<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumonia#Prognosis>,
eg. a cancer patient. (Like, oh, say, *Chavecito.*)

I have to say this: As much as I despise all these corporate presstitutes
and their crapaganda, I hope none of them ever have to go through a long,
difficult and involved cancer treatment themselves. But I’m sorely tempted
to wish it on them…because if they did, they might finally gain some
scientific insight into the condition, and maybe (*mirabile dictu!*) some
empathy for a man about whom they obviously know nothing, but just love to
hate. (Yeah, I know…I’m dreaming. They’ll probably just die unregenerate.
And *stupid.*)

Meanwhile, Chavecito’s recovery
continues.<http://venezuelanalysis.com/news/7650> Call
me a crazy Canuck, call me a Chavista, hell — you could even call me
Shirley, but I’m gonna take the word of his government
deputies<http://venezuelanalysis.com/news/7674> over
some crappy Spanish gossip rag that probably never got any of its hacks
within a mile of the Cuban coastline. He’s gonna make it.*

And oh boy, am I ever gonna rub these Koch-suckers’ noses in it when the
‘Cito returns to his presidential desk in Caracas safe and sound, and vocal
as ever.

*And if you doubt me, read this.
