Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
I was just logging in to post this news. This is sad for conservatism, he continued to shine the light on the "scum" that have taken control of our nation. I question how "natural" the causes of his death really were!!
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
THis is bad news. Prayers for his family and friends.

This is bad for everyone. Prayers out for his family.
The statement on his sites quoted the concluding passage from his book, Righteous Indignation.
"I love my job. I love fighting for what I believe in. I love having fun while doing it. I love reporting stories that the Complex refuses to report. I love fighting back, I love finding allies, and-famously-I enjoy making enemies. Three years ago, I was mostly a behind-the-scenes guy who linked to stuff on a very popular website. I always wondered what it would be like to enter the public realm to fight for what I believe in. I've lost friends, perhaps dozens. But I've gained hundreds, thousands -- who knows? -- of allies. At the end of the day, I can look at myself in the mirror, and I sleep very well at night."
The statement said: "Andrew is at rest, yet the happy warrior lives on, in each of us."

His death is a huge loss to all America. Unbelievable that he had such influence, and at such a young age.
I really do question 'natural causes'............

Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
A tragedy. Hopefully, a galvanizing one.
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
Even respect from Media Matters.
"Media Matters has a long history with Andrew Breitbart. We've disagreed more than we've found common ground, but there was never any question of Andrew's passion for and commitment to what he believed.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family today."

Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
Breitbart was walking near his house in the Brentwood neighborhood shortly after midnight Thursday when he collapsed, his father-in-law Orson Bean said.
Someone saw him fall and called paramedics, who tried to revive him. They rushed him to the emergency room at UCLA Medical Center, Bean said. Breitbart had suffered heart problems a year earlier, but Bean said he could not pinpoint what happened.

Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
He was a good man.
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
He certainly looked older than 43. Sad day for conservatives.
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
Very sad news Andrew Breitbart was a real conservative asset for America.
Condolences to his family, his friends and all of us real conservatives.

I've never lived anywhere that had anything beyond an antenna for TV no cable or anything. From the clip stx posted he sounded like a good guy though and we need all the good guys we can get.
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
Man, what a loss.
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
Just got an email from the PG Tea Party about it, sad news.
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
Andrew Breitbart was one of the speakers who introduced Srah Palin at the American For Prosperity rallye in Madison Wisconsin that was held almost a year ago. Our rallye was going on at the same time that thousands of others were protesting Governor Walkers reforms. Perhaps that's an understatement: we were greatly outnumbered! 
The lefties were doing their best to deny the speakers their 1st Amendment right to speak, but Andrew came through loud and clear.

"Untimely" in more ways than one. Given this election year, he'll be extra sorely missed.

Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
This is such a terrific loss for true conservatives. AB was a warrior against many of the things oft complained about on this forum.
If you dont know him, watch and read his works.
Natural causes at 43 happens, but when fully 100 million people hate you, you've got to consider that it is a hit.
Lots of bad news in the world, but this one really saddens me.

Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
I hope the videos he promised on BO are in safe hands, and that they are able to distribute them without harm to themselves.
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
We've lost an important warrior for our freedoms.
We need everyone we have for the fight we are in and he will be sorely missed.

Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
That was tough to hear on the news this morning, one of the things I do every morning is check Breitbarts website after checking the campfire - a tough loss for all.
RIP Andrew

Quite a hit piece from the LA Times. Nice send off for a dead man.
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
Disillusionment with the system has made me keep my nose and blood pressure pretty well away from politics in general...but this whole thing stinks.....bad....
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
Some of the comments I'm seeing posted on the news reports are truly incredible. The cruelty of some folks after a person passes is mindboggling. Hard to believe people can say some of these things for no reason other than they disagree with his position. They are everywhere so I won't give them more publicity but just gives me more reason not to trust some of them, no matter what. WOW!
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/01/12
VERY untimely...
Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/02/12
Yeah, I was just over on the Washington Post. The vitriol is ten times what we slag on each other here, dancing on the guy's grave. That means he was a threat to the liberal worldview, how dare he prick their bubble, anyway?
RIP, Andrew. Hope someone was being groomed to take over.

Check him out at your local Wallyworld.
He is featured in the Sarah Palin �Undefeated� video.
They were friends.
Breitbart supported and defended Sarah.
Palin haters didn�t last long when they drew his fire.

Re: Andrew Breitbart dead - 03/02/12
As usual I was listening to radio talk show host Mike Church on my way to work this morning and he reported (I don't know where he got the info)that Breitbart had stopped at a bar during his walk and drank a glass of wine and discussed politics with the bartender. Church went on to say that it was shortly after he left the bar that he collapsed.
