Chavez is dead
No links, only this screen shot of Fox News website;
Excuse me while I do my happy dance, smoke a cigar and drink some rum.
ADDED: the good communists at Venezelanalysis.com were preparing for this moment. If any of you think things will change overnight in Venezuela, well;
Vice-president Nicolas Maduro today denounced destabilisation plans by the international and Venezuelan right wing, announcing the expulsion of two US officials for threatening military security. He also implied that Chavez’s cancer was “caused by enemies of Venezuela”.
A link to the news of the death at BBC from ROS.
Maduro made the announcement today just after midday, following a meeting this morning with Venezuela’s political military leadership.
Maduro pronounced the expulsion of Air Attaché David Delmonaco, and assistant Air Attaché Devlin Costal of the US embassy in Caracas for being implicated in “conspiracy plans”.
“They have 24 hours to pack their bags and leave,” Maduro said.
He explained that Monaco had, for the last few weeks, been contacting members of the Venezuelan military in order to bring about a destabilisation plan in Venezuela.
ROS sends us a link to the BBC which reports the death.

Flags better not be at half-staff tomorrow. I’d rather them be on fire than in honor of that POS.
So long, Hugo. I wonder, will Obama go to the funeral or send Joey Bite-Me? Will Sean Penn, Danny Glover and Harry Belafonte get to ride on AF1/2?
Guess medical treatment in Cuba is not as good as we werer told by Michael Moore. Sean Penn will be heartbroken now….

I imagine that he has met the real Diablo by noe and it turns out to be someone totally not George W. Bush!
Whoa! Those Vegas boys nailed it days ago! They had his rollout date of today at 6-5! hey, there’s a record here. You can look it up. Don’t try to beat Vegas.
Well, I never celebrate over death… it’s just not right. But, somehow, I will find a way to persevere in my night’s celebration.
There is an evil little part of me that hopes he looked God in the eyes and saw just how wretched a person he was then begged for forgiveness. And God simply said “no.”
Well that escalated quickly.
Sean Penn is overcome with grief…
I almost put him on my dead pool this year. I came so close to adding both him and castro.
I will not say I’m glad. But I am relieved.
Death is just a thing. Don’t be afraid to celebrate it.
HELL
Lucifer: Hugo, my man .. we have been waiting.
Hugo: I know, the free pain killers in Cuba … were too much to refuse.
Hugo: Where is that wacky dude Adolf … I am dying to meet him … I mean I am dead to meet him.
Lucifer: Oh .. he is at the bar with Osama … all you can drink warm horse urine. Lee Harvey … come here you little prick … go get my friend Hugo a nice warm glass of what I call Horse Brew!
Hugo: Outstanding! And Jeffrey?
Lucifer: Oh … we shanked him long ago and sent him back to Iran or North Korea, can’t quite remember which.
Hugo: What about that paranoid prick … the Russian … Stalin? What is he up to?
Lucifer: Strangely enough he hooked up Hirohito … they spend alot of time togther … if you know what I mean.
Hugo: What do we do for entertainment here.
Lucifer: Plenty of Michael Jackson and we are waiting for OJ to show up … he can sign autographs all day long!
Hugo: I am so glad to be here finally.
Lucifer: And we happy too.
I’ll be curious to see who takes over in his place.
I hear Robert Mitchum’s voice – “Sean Penn wept”
I have a friend who left Libya in the 1970s. When Ghadaffi died he said he literally shit on a picture of him and wiped his ass with another. A tradition that should be carried on in this guys case.
I heard it on the radio just an hour ago on my way home. Good thing it Winter and my windows are up, it would have turned some heads to hear a Yankee girl give the Rebel yell.
hopefully its a virus that pricktators get and runs the gauntlet!
Rest in Hell Hugo, good riddance to bad rubbish!
No, Pete, it’s cancer and the Venezuelan vice president says that Chavez’s cancer was an attack by the US government — like cancer is an infectious disease.
The two US consuls in Venezuela have been expelled by the Venezuelan government on charges of spying and attempting to incite a government overthrow.
They said he died of Pelvic Cancer So essentially he died of terminal crotch rot.
Spicoli is surely depressed…
roger that
PH2
Okay if we aren’t trying to overthrow the current Venezuelan Government then I am going to be a little pissed. Of course you know with the Obama in office…
Fidel still outlived everyone…damn shame.
Well, JPJ, the Republic of CITGO did expel two of our embassy people there today.

Coming up next on Comedy Central….”Weekend At Ooooogo’s”
Saw the first reports on this as I was leaving the office for the day.
Looks like the bell tolls for Hugo. Adios, Senor Chavez.
Adios, fuckstick!
DU has to be going apeshit right now. Poor Hugo being dead, this almost begs for a special Tuesday’s with Claymore Hugo Edition.
(Sing to the tune of “Ding,Dong, the Witch is Dead”)
DING, DONG, the bastard’s dead,…..
Party on, y’all!!!
In other news today, Hugo Chavez said “…………………….
He probably died two-three weeks ago, such is the way with dictators. Hopefully Castro isn’t too far behind.
I am just waiting for Mugabe to kick it, not that Zimbabwe will ever return to what it used to be.
@36, I consider it a pity that Cuban dictators don’t keel over as quickly as North Korean ones do.
And Sean Penn is crying in his soup (here’s my suprised look)
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/hugo-chavez-dead-sean-penn-426205
“And poor people around the world lost a champion.”
They sure did. He surrounded himself with a country full of them.
Here’s my euolgy for Chavez:
I hope it fucking hurt, you fuck.
Sean Penn’s net worth is around $150 million.
Does anyone see him sharing his wealth or redistributing any of it?
I haven’t checked my mailbox yet to see if there’s a check from him addressed to me.
@41, Ex-PH2, I remember reading about his PR stunt in New Orleans after Katrina when he nearly had to be rescued himself because he forgot to install the bilge plug in his boat before he launched it! Was he too stoned or just too stupid to remember something like that? As for people like him giving away their wealth? NOOOOO, that’s for us Middle Class peasants to do.
You guys do realize that communism is truly on its last gasp, don’t you? If it weren’t, there wouldn’t be so much noise from its admirers when one of its ilk croaks. The fewer of them, the better, until they are all gone.
I’m waiting to see what happens when Fidel kicks the bucket. He truly is one tough old bird. I remember when Walt Kelly caricatured Fidel in his Pogo Possum comic strip by portraying him as an agitator goat named Fido, accompanied by either a big pig or a Russian bear, both of which were caricatures of Nikita Krushchev.
@42 – Yes, I do remember that idiotic incident. Thanks for reminding me.
Actors should stick to acting and keep their mouths out of politics. Acting makes them look less stupid than they really are.
(thump thump thump)…you hear that? IT’S MY SKULL! I’M SO WASTED!!!
How true to life, indeed.
Farewell Shitstick…..
@#45, NHSparky, AMEN!! I’m jealous as hell I didn’t think of that first!!
Obviously Sean Penn doesn’t understand shit of spanish, or he would have realized that the fact of Chavez saying that any US ship getting close to the Venezuelan shores would become riffs, over and over again. Now his definition of friends might be different than mine, but if my friend tells me if I get close I’ll get shot … he might not be my friend that much.
Not to also say the black market of USD that he created within his own country and the immense wealth that all Chavez’ family has (which incidentally live in Miami, shit I guess Venezuela was not THAT good of a place to live huh?) but then again, wouldn’t expect much of Sean Penn … the amount of facepalm is strong with this one.
On the upside I would like to submit the deceased Hugo Chavez for the “Corner in Hell while a pineapple is drilled up your ass every hour and forced to squeeze the juice out and drink it Door Gunner” posthumous patch. I’m sure we can mail it to him or have Castro take it.
@8 I like to imagine that God looks like Tard the grumpy cat when he tells him No. Makes me chuckle just thinking about it.
Oh, those poor people…they have lost such a friend…they are such …..
what was the word….?
Oh, yeah — such maroons.
