Hugo Chavez on “Short Final”?
According to Dan Rather (yeah, that Dan Rather – he’s still around, even if CBS ashcanned him), Hugo Chavez’s cancer has “entered the end stage”. Per Rather, Chavez has ” metastatic rhabdomyosarcoma” and is thought to have only a short time (a couple of months) to live.
I’m no fan of Rather, but it does seem as if he’s reporting professionally here. His article clearly identifies that the main facts of his report are based on information from a single source, and that all sources contributing have requested anonymity. But I’m afraid the Bush Air National Guard “memos” fiasco doesn’t exactly inspire much confidence for me in anything reported by Rather. That’s particularly true when he essentially says, “Trust me on this” – as he has here.
That said, as cold as it sounds I hope Rather’s got this one right. The freedom-loving people of Venezuela deserve better than to have a leftist idiot running their country.

Tsk.
Is metastatic rhabdomyosarcoma contagious?
And if “Ooooo-go” goes on one of his tirades and claims that he was “infected” by the CIA, all we can do is look at the Achmadinnerjackets, Sons of Kim, et al, and just shrug our shoulders.
Just a thought.
I agree that it’s well past time for a regime change, but what are the chances that they’re going to get an improvement?
I won’t say it can’t get any worse, but they’d REALLY have to work at it.
“According to DAN RATHER . . .” —
speaking of a contradiction in terms — I’d rather NOT .
@2. No, it’s not contagious — it’s a type of cancer. It will still kill him, nonetheless.
I’m sure it pains Dan Rather greatly to have to report the imminent demise of someone he admires so much.
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving asshole…
….he’ll be replaced by another leftist idiot.
Chavez, not Rather.
Almost forgot….”What’s the frequency, Kenneth!!?!?!”
Praying for a two-fer: Hugo AND Fidel!
Didn’t he get his ballsack roasted in Cuba or something? Wonder if that’s speeding up his demise…
Hearing the phrase, “According to Dan Rather” is akin to hearing a Second Lieutenant/Ensign say, “In my experience.”
No matter what, the next thing to be said is complete and total bull.
Hugo ought to end the suspense (and help me win the pool) by ending it all with a lead pill.
Adios muchacho.
@#13, yeah, he’s been a “patient” in that wonderful health care system on the island. The one that Mikey Moore thinks we should emulate.
The tech thought he was roasting a TV dinner, instead he was roasting a turkey.
Go To Hell chavez. Seriously.
Lakers lose and now Hugo, Wham bam, thank you.
If he was somehow “infected by the CIA” well I would say money well spent. He is doing his best to emulate Mugabe, so lets hope that he dies off and Venezuela gets back to what it does best…putting out Miss Universe contestants.
