Conspiracy Theories Abound

Particularly when you're a big lipped, fat assed dictator in Venezuela.

CARACAS (Reuters) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said on Wednesday CNN may have been instigating his murder when the U.S. TV network showed a photograph of him with a label underneath that read "Who killed him?"

The caption appeared to be a production mistake -- confusing a Chavez news item with one on the death of a football star. The anchor said "take the image down" when he realized.

But Chavez called for a probe in an interview on state television, where he repeatedly reviewed a tape of the broadcast, questioning why the unconnected photograph and wording were left on screen for several seconds.

"I want the state prosecutor to look into bringing a suit against CNN for instigating murder in Venezuela," he said. "... undoubtedly it is part of the psychological warfare."{...}

Yawn. God this is getting old.

Hey, Lippy McLipster, shut up already and be patient. We'll murder you when we're good and ready...and not a second before.

And we'd hardly let CNN do our advance work, ya dig?
