Hugo Chavez is dead

[Rev. Rye]

Okay, I looked at CP, knowing that, for whatever reason, they believe that Fidel Castro died sometime around 2006, and I found this gem on Hugo Chavez' page:

Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías (b. July 28, 1954 - d. circa Dec. 11, 2012) is the repressive leftist tyrant of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. Chavez was not seen in public since he entered a Cuban hospital near death on December 11, 2012. Venezuela's communist regime engaged in liberal denial about his death for nearly three months, even releasing a photo of an ostensibly fit and smiling Chavez. But on March 5, 2013, likely due to pressure from other nations that knew Chavez had died, Venezuelan communists finally admitted Chavez was dead.

I guess they believe that the governments of Cuba and Venezuela act like this:
