Hugo back home
CARACAS, VENEZUELA – Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez returned home Friday after 11 days of cancer treatment in Cuba, saying his latest round of radiation therapy was successful.
Successful at what? There's two broad categories of radiation therapy: curative and palliative. Which did Hugo receive?
"I should say that we have successfully completed the medical treatment," the socialist leader said as dozens of uniformed soldiers holding assault rifles stood in formation along a red carpet on the tarmac at Simon Bolivar International Airport. "Of course, I must rigorously follow the medical advice in these coming days in order to continue recuperating," he said.

"Aside from some discomforts that are normal in this type of treatment, absolutely nothing occurred that forced it to be stopped, suspended or make changes to the initial plan," added Chavez, disclaiming rumors that complications arose during his treatment.

The communist thug socialist leader looked energetic and seemed to be in good spirits, breaking out in song before finishing his nationally televised address.

The president's treatment has forced him to slow his daily routine and prevented him from actively campaigning as he has in the past. Opposition presidential candidate Henrique Capriles, meanwhile, has been traveling across this South American country for weeks to drum up support ahead of an Oct. 7 presidential election.

Chavez vowed to invigorate his campaign.

"As the hours and days pass, I'm sure that with God's favor, medical science and this soldier's body that envelops me, I will get back to where I must be, in the front line of the battle, alongside the Venezuelan people, promoting the socialist revolution."

Upon his return, Chavez accused his political adversaries of leading an international campaign aimed at raising doubts regarding his commitment to democracy. He also claimed that opposition groups are planning to stir up violent political upheaval ahead of the upcoming vote.
He's projecting. Again...
Capriles told journalists earlier Friday that he opposes any type of violence.

"I'm against any type of violence, no matter where it comes from," said Capriles, speaking during a campaign event in the president's home state of Barinas.
