Peace to Andrew's family, friends and co-workers and rest in peace Andrew

Yes he will. It was more than likely a heart attack. At 43 most men don't even think about getting a standard EKG. Reminds me of when John Candy died. RIP.

umm...by whom?

My grandmother told me if you can't say something nice then don't say anything at all.

I'm doing the latter.

In the hours immediately following Senator Ted Kennedy's death, Breitbart called Kennedy a "villain", a "duplicitous bastard", a "prick"^[16]and "a special pile of human excrement."^{[17][18] Right back at him.}

The Boss must have decided Breitbart has done enough here on earth...

R.I.P. Andrew. Just shows how short life can be.

NOT BY ME!!! Perhaps political discourse will become a little more civil.

His hatred killed him.

I feel bad for his family

Forty-three is rather young to die of natural causes. Is there any word on the cause of his death?

No the hell he will not. Could not stand him. He will not be missed.

Rest In Peace. Life is all too short. I may not agree at all with his perspectives yet I am completely in accord with his right to express them which he did in his all too short life. May we all rise above his own public commentaries after the equally tragic death of Senator Kennedy and again may he be at peace

deeloo: He just called it like he saw it.

This is a bit of a shocker. I'm a social liberal / fiscal conservative ... I can't say I knew "that" much about this guy. Mostly saw him when he appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher. Seemed smart enough, very passionate about his views, although I didn't really agree with him.

He did get quite upset and over-the-top on a few occasions. Maybe that's what killed him in the end .... getting a little too excited about stuff?

Rest in peace, Andy. There are plenty of us remaining to pick up the standard and carry it on.

I'm with Eric.

No he won't.

Kennedy was all these things..but Andrew should have waited a decent time to remind those who hadn't already sainted Teddy of just how bad a guy T. Kennedy and indeed most of his family were/are. The lefties in the press never seemed to be able to cover news of teddy in an honest way. Sad to see him pass away so young as he did scare the bejeesus out of the left because they didn't know what he might dig up next. Acorn, Weiner exposed for the good of the country while the leftie press played with themselves and ignored (read : covered up) these embarassments to the Dems. I only worry about where the next AB will come from to at least balance the lefties in the general press. Good bye Andrew, RIP.

He exposed the real evil of out of control liberalism and globalism which it drove liberals nuts sadly he did not go far enough in exposing all the behind the scenes garbage.

Yes someone will pick up where he left off and continue to expose Liberal and faux conservative attempts to rule all facets of Americans lives.

Behind the green mask UN Agenda 21

Nice Autobiography Deeloo!

I am "sure" that he is in a better place.

Oh yeah Steve .... well conservatives are all Nascar fans! So there!

See?

Blanket generalizations ... they feel so fun, but say so little.

rest in peace? no. no. rest in hell. taking a gun and shooting someone causes clear, evident and tangible damage. poisoning the well of political discourse like mr. breitbart dedicated his life to doing, may not cause clear, evident and tangible damage, but it most undoubtedly cause a great amount of damage.

the man was the lowest form a human being. the only solace we can take is that we did not have to share this planet with him for longer.

to his family...you know what he did. i apologize if i dont feel sorry for you.

Angry people tend to live short lives. Perhaps he should have been more at peace with others and more respectful of persons with differing opinions.

Maybe, his massive EGO was to much to carry.The Guy was diagnosed with a heart condition last year.If you have ever watched him on TV he was always Over HYPED and belligerent ,sounds like his enthusiasm got the best of him.To the family I'm sorry for your loss .

I think you are giving the guy a little too much credit if you think the WH had him killed. There are way too many of these right-wing kookamongas out there for anyone to have even noticed this guy.

Maybe all that hate built up in his heart and it finally just gave out. He should have done what Cheney did, and go completely heartless.

Hate can also kill the hater.

Hereeeeee come the conspiracy theories.

ANDREW WHO ?

I am praying that we have 10 more like you to take up the cause against the liberal disease. RIP my clear thinking friend

Karma. Can't go through life spiting others without consequences.

He is dead. Whatever the man’s politics were, and whether I agreed with them is irrelevant. There is really no point in tearing into a dead man. Condolences to his family and friends. May we all find peace in the end.

Andrew had a mission to uncover left/liberal hypocrisy that was generally unreported by the major press. He did an excellent job at it judging from the the hateful comments from liberals on this site. Rest in peace Andrew.

There are people that mourned the death of Hitler.

You're honestly comparing Breitbart to Hitler?

I'm calling Godwin's Law.

as an online argument grows longer and more heated, it becomes increasingly likely that somebody will bring up Adolf Hitler or the Nazis. When such an event occurs, the person guilty of invoking Godwin's Law has effectively forfieted the argument.

In the hours after Ted Kennedy died, Breitbart attacked Kennedy, calling him a "villian", "a big ass motherf*&%er", a "duplicitous bastard" and a "prick.” He also tweeted that "Kennedy was a special pile of human excrement".

I'll do my best to honor Breitbart's memory by saying the exact same things about him.

Condolences to his family and those who loved him.

To those who knew him and his politics... His death does not change who or what is was.

Steve999-

at least i would mourn my cat, because at least my cat did something worthwhile. sooo much more than this scum.

In the hours after Ted Kennedy died, Breitbart attacked Kennedy, calling him a "villian", "a big ass motherf*&%er", a "duplicitous bastard" and a "prick.” He also tweeted that "Kennedy was a special pile of human excrement"

Of course Breitbart didn't kill of a woman because of drunk driving and leave the scene of the crime.

I must really be out of the loop, never heard of him. RIP

whoever this dude was sure pissed a lot of people off. This HAS to be a "collapsed comment" record breaker right here.

Regardless if this guy sucked he was probably amazing to his four children, so I hope they cope well

So you're critical of the guy for something he did but then you do the exact same thing? Well if he said those things at that time he was a jerk for doing so but at least he wasn't a jerk AND a hypocrite.

I cannot dispute this for certain just as you cannot say it's true for certain but I do know that he was a liar, was caught in his lie, and never showed any remorse by apologizing for his actions. That to me puts him in the same class as a criminal according the Bible.

The vitriol and hatred is astounding. I'm a hardcore Liberal and I would never wish death on another person, regardless of party affiliation. Whatever unscrupulous activities Breitbart took part in during his journalistic career (And I'm sure there were many), to wish death on the man or cheer his death is almost (Actually "just") as despicable as the people who, on January 8, 2011, were posting "Nah nah nah nah, hey hey, good bye" in response to Congresswoman Giffords being shot. The nuts part is, it's not just one side. I can't tell you just how many times I've seen posts from Republicans saying "Stupid dumbass liberals, supposedly the party of civility!" and from Democrats saying "Dip@!$%# Republicans, always resort to name calling instead of an actual argument." Maybe if we all engaged in dialogue and found common ground (This should be easy considering well over 80% of the public agrees on well over 80% of the issues) and stopped flinging mud, hate, and fecal matter at each other, the political atmosphere might actually be something worth paying attention to. After all, my grandpappy used to say "Even if you're the one throwing the @!$%#, you've still got it on your hands."

Who goes walking at midnight? Maybe he was out enjoying a little toe tapping/wide stancing? Wink wink

Q22 Amen to this,

The Dems almost swallowed their tongues when the Acorn story broke. This sordid affair was exposed as the tip of the iceburg of Democrat creation and support of government funded thug organizations and party adjuncts that could be called upon to support their party in mostly black ghettos. Acorn was and still is nothing but a jobs program for unproductive and ultimately useless moochers who leech on the public treasury and who do nothing to improve the lot of those they supposedly were created to help. I remind everyone our president was one of these scroungers and basically cut his political teeth in this environment. Now 20 years later he acts in the same manner representing certain groups he favors and punshing the productive ones by leeching on them to support his chosen "posse". The whole system is rotten and if left to continue will cause problems even our Pinko president cannot imagine. When the unproductive and fools of a civilization are given control of it a huge "train wreck" is guaranteed to follow.

Seems Ken is the hateful one.

Hey Ken, I wonder if it's "vile enough" for The Secret Service. Be expecting a knock on your door. Think before you post your hate.

I wonder if it was the Paula Cole diet plan? Good thing he has $$ and went quickly....there's nothing worse than a conservative sucking up Medicare dollars!!

He is dead. Whatever the man’s politics were, and whether I agreed with them is irrelevant. There is really no point in tearing into a dead man. Condolences to his family and friends. May we all find peace in the end.

@moderate Dem....thanks for showing some class. Too bad you're overwhelmed on here by hateful, extreme leftist who give their party a bad name. I know there would be hateful right wingers given "shoe on other foot" scenario, and I would tell them the same thing.

Hateful comments and attitude are really killing this country. Why don't you haters grow up and try the high road for once.

Deeloo, leave it to a Lib to just copy something from some website without knowing what they are reading or in fact what is going on and just try and twist it to fit your views.

In the hours immediately following Senator Ted Kennedy's death, Breitbart called Kennedy a "villain", a "duplicitous bastard", a "prick"^[16]and "a special pile of human excrement."^{[17][18] Right back at him.}

I do not mourn the loss of anyone who stands up for greed. Though he stood up for absolute archaic madness, I do feel for his family, and hope they get through this tough time.

How ironic! The ones that coined the terms such as "hate speech", "hate crime(s)" etc. are really showing some good examples through their posts! (but, I wouldn't expect anything less!)

Can't say that I know much about the guy other than seeing him a couple times on Stossel and reading comments directed towards him after the Weiner debacle but I'm incredibly confident when I say that the VAST majority of hate in his life was coming AT him not FROM him.

Hope all of you hypocrites on here don't reap what you've sown because frankly I have no clue what sort of fcked up Kool Aid you're drinking that allows you to believe you are in any way better than he was.

@Backcountry....well said. Reading the NUMEROUS hatred postings has been an eye opener for me. Shocking really to see such lack of civility.

Some fascinating facts for the right wingers.

Let's get some facts straight. Breitbart was a right winger, more inclined to fascism, and definitely not a conservative. Yes, I personally believe that the US will be better off without his reich wing vitriol. How-ever, this is a free country and he has a right to say what he said. The first amendment has not been clipped by NDAA as yet! His assault against Acorn was proven to be lebellious. To their credit, Acorn did not sue the pants off him, which they should have.

That being said, condolences to the family, and here's hoping that none of his kids follow in his footsteps.

unfortunately, raider, hate breeds hate. spend your whole life being a prick, people are gonna remember you as a prick when you die...

heart attack at 43? It's not good to carry all that hate in your heart...

43 that is a shame RIP, I'm not surprised with the childish post from my fellow Democrats but there are no real difference from the other side of the isle, both act like whining girls ........

Collapsed comment record, eh!? In this world, it's too hard to respect someone's right to expression and his life rather than his views. That's pretty sad, but hey, it just shows how important politics are. Or are they really that important?

So you're critical of the guy for something he did but then you do the exact same thing? Well if he said those things at that time he was a jerk for doing so but at least he wasn't a jerk AND a hypocrite.

Q22 -- how am I critical of him? I'm merely quoting things that he said and then emulating him by using his own words to describe him. Isn't imitation the sincerest form of flattery?

@ Raider

.well said. Reading the NUMEROUS hatred postings has been an eye opener for me. Shocking really to see such lack of civility.

I felt the same way when I read the post after Ted Kennedy died.

@ David

In this world, it's too hard to respect someone's right to expression and his life rather than his views

It's not hard to respect someones' views. It's when they edit tapes to promote an agenda that's the problem. That is outright lying and deserves no respect.

unfortunately, raider, hate breeds hate. spend your whole life being a prick, people are gonna remember you as a prick when you die...

heart attack at 43? It's not good to carry all that hate in your heart...

@DoyourhomeworkAmerica....so, you don't see the hypocrisy in your own statement?

So, what you're saying is someone who YOU DON'T KNOW, and probably didn't listen/read about for more then 10 minutes has CAUSED you to spew hatred and/or agree with others for doing so. Yeah nice try buddy. Your last statement tells me you need to PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH...or you just might be joining him.

Breitbart was a pioneer of the "pajama media" movement. It was needed because the liberal left controls the main stream media like ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, and yes even PBS (Fox News is the lone wolf of Conservative points of view). They do not report negatives against their guys on the Left and focus all negatives on the Right. Just watch any of the aforementioned networks on Sunday morning round table shows. Their idea of "fair and balanced" is 5 rabid liberals like Donna Brazille against one lightweight conservative like George Will.

The liberal left also controls the vast majority of main stream print media like the New York Times, Atlanta Journal Constitution, Chicago Tribune, and LA Times. They used to try and hide their bias, but since Obama's election in 2008, they aren't even apologetic about it anymore (Chris Matthews' "thrilling feeling going up his leg" about Obama for example). In the case of the NYT, the OpEd page has now spilled over into every page of the entire paper front to back.

No, there will be another person to take Breitbart's place. We already know that the left wants to silent voices of opposition to them and their policies through shock phrases and intimidation (currently they equate anyone being against Obama's policies as a "racist"). They also love to throw out the "hate" word on ANY opinion they disagree with. It's so childish and will NOT go unchallenged. That's what Breitbart went after. The Pajama Media movement has only begun liberals. Get used to it and go pound sand.

Make a conservative mad - tell him a lie.

Make a liberal mad - tell him the truth (like our real inflation being at 8% and real unemployment well over 10% that the Obama media hides: http://www.aier.org/article/7557-epi-reflects-basic-economic-change).

My deepest sympathy goes out to his wife and children. As far as Mr. Breibart, not so much. He could have attacked the left without taking quotes out of context, or outright lying and ruining good peoples careers for his own profit, just as can be done against many on the right side of the aisle. No, he went for character assassination first and felt the end justified the means, no matter how slimy a tactic it took. Karma's a biotch sometimes.

OK.........first of all, I've never heard of this man. If he is extreme right wing I disagree with his politics. As a social liberal/fiscal conservative I have been greatly troubled by what I see as bullying language coming from that end of the spectrum...seriously guys, turn the volume down...way down...it comes off as hysterical ranting...and the name calling comes off as childish tantrum throwing.....but that really isn't what this is all about.

A man has died, he was an American who, evidently, felt strongly about some issues. Even if someone disagrees, strongly, with his positions, we can at least all have the common decency to show respect to his family. The left wing spectrum spewing such hate on this site are no better than the far right when THEY spew hate. Both sides: Take a long look in the mirror!!!!!!

And guys (both sides)....dial it DOWN.....I'm an independent and I will simply NOT vote for any candidate that spews hate and engenders fear. The social liberal in me wants us to respect and care for each other (making sacrifices from our own riches when necessary) and the fiscal conservative in me wants the money spent on the poor and disadvantaged, not on a bigger government.

Andrew Breitbart's enduring legacy: DIVISIVE NEGATIVE ATTACK-AD PARTISAN POLITICS. Yep, he'll be remember for only one thing, and to paraphrase Martha Stewart, "It's NOT a Good Thing".

I never once heard or read anything GOOD about his "opponents" from that barsterd.

Tragedy visits us all in our lives. Sounds like some of you either haven't experienced that yet or have forgotten how it feels. Perhaps some of you who can speak ill of a man who recently passed at a fairly young age with a wife and 4 children meet the same fate or maybe one of your loved ones if you have any. Grow up! Politics is a job for most of these people, not to be confused with matters of life and death. Some of you wouldn't take the high road if the low road was washed out.

sorry J. Edgar, time to make room for another spineless fraction of a little man. Cant wait to hear the eulogy for this pitiful guy.

@ timetravler100

Where is your evidence for this? Oh yeah, there ISN'T any because you are another misinformed leftist troll.

Maybe this will help.

http://mediamatters.org/blog/201004020029

RIP Andrew.

I agreed with little you said, but appreciate your passion. The oppositetive view of my liberal views is not conservative views-it is apathy. Thank you for the thought provoking debates.

My condolences to his family.

.well said. Reading the NUMEROUS hatred postings has been an eye opener for me. Shocking really to see such lack of civility.

I felt the same way when I read the post after Ted Kennedy died.

@Larry....you probably didn't see my other post where I fully acknowledged that right wingers can be idiots too. Remember...two wrongs don't make a right. No sense in making this a topic of my party vs your party. A young man died and left behind a family. Isn't that enough to warrant some compassion from your fellow man?

RIP Mr. Breitbart

steve999 - Well said! Thank you. Although, call me jaded or whatever, but it is no longer "breathtaking" to me. I have learned to lower my expectations for them. I used to point out to them that they do not speak for most people, as they only amount to about 20% of the population according to all polls I have ever seen. I provided sources too, but they refused to believe it or accept it. I call it the "3 monkeys syndrome". You know, "see no evil", "hear no evil" and "speak no evil"...but ONLY with regards to like minded liberals (also other democrats to some extent, if they are in a position of power).

One of the telling things in this blog is that some are taking the opportunity to bash him as "pure evil". At the same time, they will ignore the line in the article that says he "helped Arianna Huffington launch the Huffington Post website", which is one of their liberal bastions.

As a liberal, I am saddened by the hateful comments on here. A man with 4 small children died at age 43. While I did not agree with him on most topics, he was not a terrorist or child molester or mass murderer. He was someone who thought that different things were best-and fought with passion for what he believed was right.

If you can not say something nice-can we at least not speak with such hate, if for nothing else, respect for his children and family?

Breitbart himself would love this vine and all the postings because it exposes the left for who they really are, which is what he spent the last part of his life doing. You fools accuse him of hate and lying when 95% of the time all he did was film and post videos of the left doing business as usual when they thought no one was looking or listening, which in turn was exposing them. He showed the world video of the left in action when the rest of the media decided they wanted to be silent. His death and your post expose once again the lie's and hate you on the left try to accuse others of.

Rest In Peace Andrew, even in your death you have helped expose the left for what they truly are.

There is a high correlation between cardio-vascular events (heart attack and stroke) and the hate that some people carry around with them. As Mark Twain observed: "Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured."

Larry-2260635

Larry, just so you know, MEDIA MATTERS is a leftist propaganda site full of misinformation, half-truths and outright lies. They have no credibility. Imagine how you would value information that I quoted from a KKK site.

Hate kills.

RIP Andrew.

I agreed with little you said, but appreciate your passion. The oppositetive view of my liberal views is not conservative views-it is apathy. Thank you for the thought provoking debates.

My condolences to his family.

ATTENTION Haters....above you'll find a great example of how to disagree with dignity. Not to mention NO HATRED. Thanks to UCHusky99 for the example.

@UChusky99....nice job of calling the haters out.

seems like alot of hate in here

He was basically a Dan Rather on steroids who used minions to do his bidding so he didn't have to put his aged face out there. The man was a coward.

He went on every leftist show, never hiding are running from a debate or fight and you call him a coward. You have no idea what you are talking about, your comments just make you look foolish.

RIP Andrew. Condolences to your family and friends.

I've never agreed with a word you've said, nor have I ever had an ounce of respect for your work. But you and I share the same age - we are connected. Liberals, conservatives, radicals alike - in death, we are all connected. Peace.

STUPID, STUPID, STUPID!!!!! Heart problems like so many other diseases are first and formost Genetic. That is why every doctors office has you fill out a family history.

KevinMC-408868;

Remind us again what party was and remains the elitist American aristocracy, again. The party that was pro-slavery and had the most land owning slave masters, anti-desegregation, anti-women's rights, anti-civil rights, anti-black and native American rights and who retains their "WE know best how you should live" position to this very day. That's right, Democrats. Perhaps, Kevin before you toss accusations around you should look into the party of Jefferson before you call other hypocritical.

You fools accuse him of hate and lying when 95% of the time all he did was film and post videos of the left doing business as usual when they thought no one was looking or listening, which in turn was exposing them.

@LogicRequired....your post reminded me of WAY back when Mayor Marion Berry of DC was caught smoking crack with his mistress on video. The deflection and support from the left was mind blowing then just like the ACORN issue. Can't believe people will stick their necks out in these scenarios.

@Carianne

how am I critical of him? I'm merely quoting things that he said and then emulating him by using his own words to describe him. Isn't imitation the sincerest form of flattery?

I see, you weren't being critical of him for being a d-bag you were just pointing out that he was one while at the same time admitting you are also. Got it.

Nicodemus

That is the pre-60s Dems. Today, the Reps fill that role. Note where the arch-racists within the Dems (Helms, Thurmond) went to after the ending of Jim Crow. I know, thinking is not one of your strong points, but a little bit of it sometimes does not hurt.

All:

There are a lot of us conservatives who distanced ourselves from this guy, due to his way of doing things, lying and defaming, in particular. Just not the way we believe things should be done.

The poster who says that the right wing carry the country, see Krugman's article in the NYT on Feb 17, or follow the link in an earlier post. The right wing (TP types) are only about 15% of the country. It is time to kick these nut jobs from the conservative movement. Limbaugh, Fox, Breitbart etc do not speak for us.

I had the opportunity to see this man only on Bill Maher's "Real Time". Regardless of my personal opinions, I sincerely hope no one in his family is reading this thread, it would break their hearts. My deepest sympathies to them. 43 is just too young.

@Ken - Did you just wish death on the President of the United States? I hope you enjoy your trip to Gitmo...

I will not miss this man.

By that token, Republicans never were for States' rights because Lincoln was the first of them and he quashed that.

The parties have evolved. It's the 21st Century, you'd better get with it.

@Sean....you make a good point and I just want to add that the Rep party hasn't evolved into the party of RACIST'S that many lefties portray them as either. You have to admit....the Dems have made a practice of using RACISM as a tool of deflection against the right.

Sean;

Have they? What wrong truth of the Democrats hurt? Do not the Dems, (Dims) retain their "We know best how to run your life" attitude? Do they not seek to impose control on people via their "Social programs"? Slavery by any other name is still slavery. If one is dependent on government, you are a slave. It is the 21st century and still you adhere to the party of slavery and who would enslave you economically in the 21st century. What's the problem?, Can't see the forest for the trees? Big Government, high taxes, social hand outs for all, wait,,,,, that's Europe and their doing so well. Californication is our prime example of this fallacy and the state is broke. Clearly you lefties would like to use the European example to enslave America to the Government tit. Slave owners must enslave, after all, they are destined by birth to rule, yes? The Aristocratic elite never change, do they?

It's really interesting to see which comments get collapsed. I mean Dan said to RIP and he'll pick up where this guy left off. What's offensive about that??? I wasn 't a fan and I won't say I'll miss him at all. But someone's on a collapsing binge here! A lot of them should be collapsed. If conservatives are collapsed for saying this stuff, so should be liberals. It's just innnnnteresting how MANY are shut. Now, I wonder if mine will be too? LOL!

The big hate started with the Newtster in the early 90's and his list of words to use show hate for anything Dems did. The list went out to all Repubs to use daily. This repub list still goes out every day, every week, talking points. Fox news was just caught sending memo out because facts show Obama is saving the day. The document said to switch from jobs to whine about gas prices etc. This was shown on the John Stweart show. Idiot Fox newscaster even started saying it on his show and dear little Gretchen just about joined the dearly departed.....TOO FUNNY! When you have to send out a list of lies taliking points, that is as low as its gets. Andrew was at the head of this class. Note all the collapsed comments. Clearly not well liked.

Larry-2260635

If the almighty approved the work he was doing he would have lived to see a 100 years of age. Rest in peace and may God have mercy on your soul for bearing false witness.

Since you are a believer, than I should remind you that it is said that Christ was in His 30's when he was crucified and died for ALL of US. Now, How Could The Almighty have NOT approved of Christ's work??? Also, how many do you know that live to be 100?? How old are you????? There is a song that is titled "Only the Good Die Young". Which makes about as much sense as your statement.

Redrock (#1.42). If that's the case, about 1/2 of the lefty posters above my post should be dropping dead just any minute.

I am amazed at the number of 'collapsings' on both sides. While I certainly don't hold with this man's politics or tactics. I do feel for his family and kids. They have lost a father and I bet his private persona was not nearly as abrasive as his public one.

He also risked something as a board advisor to a Gay Conservative organization, not something your average right winger would do..for the he gets some credit.

The rest is up to God now.

uchusky: I realize that you may not read this post, given that it's been collapsed, but, I just thought I'd let you know that you GET IT. Thumbs up.

Wow, so much hatred on this thread. 1400+ posts and a large percentage collapsed. Shame on you.

He will be missed? ahahahah maybe for the right wingers. He die because of his hatred and god punish him. I was hoping that karma will get his guy, hahahah looks like modern day karma has rocket booster, they came fast. His death make me almost happy as Bin Laden's death.

Amazing how a lot of you are condemning him for comments he made about Kennedy after his death but none of you seem to mind saying much the same about him now that he is dead. I suppose when you do it it is freedom of speech but when he did it you think it was immoral and mean. Guess it depends on which side of the fence you are standing on.

My thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.

That's funny, I've watched and listened to just about every liberal show and have never seen or heard him interviewed once. He hid behind others' work, paying them to do his bidding with lame setups. He is the purveyor of "gotcha journalism" that the Righties pretend to fear so much. He's a coward.

He was on Current TV - The Young Turks show, he has been on manyMSNBC shows Martin Bashir, Dylan Ratigan, also interviews with Alan Colmes, so on, and so on.....

The fact you never saw him or "heard of him" means you aren't informed and that you are posting and commenting about a guy you admittedly knew nothing about. The only cowards are you who attack this man who's only crime was to disagree with liberals point of view. You can name call him all you want, I never said you couldn't, in fact I'm glad you are showing people what you truly think. If you have this much hate at the man's death just imagine the type of things you would of approved of if you had the chance. Re education camps for all of us conservatives would be just fine with a Marxist fascist such as yourself.

I read them all. Yep, every post above. So few got anything about Breitbart right. He was a passionate advocate for his position. He never, ever, refused to debate a liberal about anything of consequence. He loved the personal vitriol directed against him. He could be coarse, but he wasn't a liar, and he didn't look for half-truths to make a cute, but ultimately false, argument. But what so many of you really get wrong is that he was a very compassionate person for those you might not think likely, like homosexuals and minorities. But he was compassionate in a way that you might not approve of as well, like when he defended conservative homosexuals who were lambasted in the MSM for being traitors to their group.

See, for Breitbart it was less about a group than it was about the liberty to be part of any group you want. It was less about the attack than to simply speak the truth (as he knew it) to those who say you are wrong. We need many more people like him, and fewer people who throw around the word "hate" as if they have any idea of who it applies in this case. Breitbart, at rock bottom, rejected the very group-think concept that is prevalent in today's media.

While I don't believe in God, and don't think there is a heaven or hell and so I don't think Breitbart is able to watch down on all of this going on now, I do think he would be pleased that he influenced so many lives. Particularly those who hated him so much. I think he would smile at the idea that these people, who really know so little about him or what motivated him, would take the time to prove Breitbart's own point about them.

The big hate started with the Newtster in the early 90's and his list of words to use show hate for anything Dems did. The list went out to all Repubs to use daily. This repub list still goes out every day, every week, talking points. Fox news was just caught sending memo out because facts show Obama is saving the day. The document said to switch from jobs to whine about gas prices etc. This was shown on the John Stweart show. Idiot Fox newscaster even started saying it on his show and dear little Gretchen just about joined the dearly departed.....TOO FUNNY! When you have to send out a list of lies taliking points, that is as low as its gets.

@starsailing....your post is a joke right? Listen, either you pay little to no attention to the left and Dem party or you're just in denial. It's called political warfare and the Dems are the masters of it. Do you really think the left is innocent of what you accuse the right of? What a hypocrite you are.

Being naive can be wonderful though.

I recommend a nice French Roast coffee delivered intravenously, tyler. Good luck.

Read his comments about Ted Kennedy right after Kennedy's death before you complain that people are ranting about what a jerk this guy was.

What's with all the collapsing here? That being said, Norquist should go next. Now go ahead and collapse me.

Andrew rest in peace. May the LORD bring peace to your family in this time of sorrow. Sushanna and the children are in our prayers. See you on the other side someday.

Tyler, just look at it as job security. Good luck and have a nice productive day.

Nicodemus

You left a few things out. U. Grant owned slaves, R.E. Lee didn't. The slaves in the North were not freed until after Lincoln's death. When he freed the slave he only freed them in the South.

It's quite obvious from the despicable, hateful comments here that Andrew was quite effective at exposing the bias of the left wing prostitutes in the mainstream media. And, I'm sure that most of those blasting him here for being "hateful" are fans of such civil left wing proponents as Bill Maher....a real loving gentleman, right?

Democrats have a lot of tolerance!

Unless you're a Conservative or a baby still in the womb, then they just want you dead.

Andrew will be missed. R.I.P. and condolences to his family.

It seems the same people that will praise Julian Assange for exposing wrongdoing condemn Andrew Breitbart for doing the same thing.

Just an observation, the people that are accusing Andrew for being "full of hate" seem to be consumed by hate themselves. Just sayin'

My condolences, but how do I outlive this guy (natural causes) by ten years living the life I do.

CEO2NV2 - You don't think that this guy was full of hate? Look at his comments about Ted Kennedy right after Kennedy's death...

--Breitbart called Kennedy a "villain", a "duplicitous bastard", a "prick"^[16] and "a special pile of human excrement."

Wow...I think he sort of deserves the disgust being piled on him if for no other reason than you reap what you sow. On a side note I still think he looks at least mid-fifties in his photos. He looked way too old for his stated age.

Just an observation, the people that are accusing Andrew for being "full of hate" seem to be consumed by hate themselves. Just sayin'

It is great irony for sure. Or maybe hypocrisy is a better choice of words.

You don't think that this guy was full of hate? Look at his comments about Ted Kennedy right after Kennedy's death...

@StMiller...haven't read the quote myself, but have heard enough to know it was probably in poor taste. But honestly, this is IMO an ugly part of politics. Everyone seems to practice it...some more so then others granted but safe to say that both Kennedy & Breitbart were guilty of using hate has a political weapon. When it comes to death and leaving families behind I'd like to think everyone could exercise some simple human compassion.

deeloo: He just called it like he saw it.

Yes imnotlost. He did call it like he saw it......he called it as a lie, and ended up getting someone fired from their job so yeah you're right on that.

P.S. get rid of "not" in your screename. It would describe so much more about you.

Raider-4158022 - Well said. I totally agree.

Raider 415----You are such and idiot to think people can't look up how Newt Gingrinch started the hate words. All anyone has to do is a search on "Newt Gingrinch word list" There are so many sites with his memos on, and the list of words to use and how to use them. Anyone can see you are a close relative to Andrew or paid to sit and write B.S. all over the blogs. Next time you go to write something full of B.S., try doing a search at least.

Satan called him home.

Sorry, he will not be missed. This man was a liar, full of hate and evil. A predator. I hope he wasn't like this with his family.

I did feel like a slave though when I used to earn what was less than a living wage for fulltime work. That was a problem. You were being paid what you were worth. My guess is your pay has changed but your worth is about the same. But thanks for sharing how you "felt".

And that is what the likes of you and Breitbart pray for. You nailed it! All us conservatives go to bed every night praying for slavery to come back. No use hiding are true feelings anymore, we want slaves. Maybe liberals could become our slaves? We would first have to teach them how to work, but it might work out. Today's the first, shouldn't you be in line to get your check? No need to thank me for being a sucker working and paying taxes for your benefit, I know you care.

We may talk of lower taxes to help the encomoy, we may talk of school choice, samller government, family values, and personal responsibilty, but that is all to hide our desire for slavery. Damn all those Republicans who voted for the civil rights bill. (higher percentage of republicans voted for it then Democrats!)

@St.Miller, while his description of Teddy Kennedy was perhaps insensitive, it was still accurate. As Raider pointed out, Teddy was just as guilty of the same behavior. Once Teddy got wound up and started ranting, some pretty terrible things about certain people came out of his mouth....and a lot of it wasn't even true. And then there was that dead girl in his car.......

While I could never say Breitbart was special, he certainly was a steaming pile of human excrement, just my opinion. I wish the best for his family. I never wished for his death, nor celebrate it. We all shall reap what we sow, sometime sooner than later.

I don't know about that, my 6 figure income doesn't make me feel like one.

Today's the first, shouldn't you be in line to get your check? No need to thank me for being a sucker working and paying taxes for your benefit, I know you care.

OOPPS, My fault, you're a rich guy who wants more taxes for the benefit of others, not a tax burden. So tell me, how much extra are you going to pay this year since you're still probably benefiting from Bush's tax Cuts?

Poor Andy. He had so much lying to do.

Natural causes? Choke the bishop and the troll?

I am so afraid of having center right opinions, I think I will become center left. NOT!

CEO2NV2 - What you said is exactly what is wrong. Are you suggesting that Breitbart can rage on with hate filled invective regarding Kennedy because in your opinion "it was still accurate", but when people in this forum today say that Breitbart was also a jerk you say that's unacceptable because in your opinion they are wrong about Breitbart?! You see what Breitbart said about Kennedy was just opinion right?

Maybe I misunderstood Raider's comments, but I thought he meant that politics is better off without people ranting with the sort of hate that Kennedy and Breitbart used.

Wow... stunning news. I did not agree with everything the man said or did, though I certainly found common ground on a number of fiscal issues, but he was passionate in his convictions that's for certain.

Even for whatever I did not agree with him on, I think politics will be worse off without him, it's a good thing to have watchdogs on both the left and right to help check and balance against each other.

Regardless of anything else, I hope the best for his family and friends.

I can see Tyler is going to be unhappy with me....

I'm reminded of the words of Elizabeth I when told that her sister had died and she was the now The Queen--

"This is The Lord's doing. It is glorious in our eyes".

There's a lot of talk here about "niceties" and "respect". If you don't show any to other people, you don't deserve any after you're gone. He was a white trash panderer and a puffed up, self-important con man. Period. He had no redeeming values and nothing about him will be considered significant 5 minutes after they drop his corpse in the ground.

" You were a special pile of excrement". Andrew Brietbart.

To know that this was said gives pause. ; ]

Cheers

@Starsailing....you really missed my point. Let me try again and answer/address your post;

Raider, You are such and idiot to think people can't look up how Newt Gingrinch started the hate words.

Coming right out of the box with your own brand of hate/name calling. Nice touch. Re Newt...who cares who started the use of hate words? I mean really....want to debate if the chicken or egg came first?

All anyone has to do is a search on "Newt Gingrinch word list" There are so many sites with his memos on, and the list of words to use and how to use them.

This would be a waste of time. I'll concede the fact that conservatives/republicans practice hate and name calling if you'll do the same re the Liberals and Dems? Fair enough?

Anyone can see you are a close relative to Andrew or paid to sit and write B.S. all over the blogs.

No relation and not even a "fan". Probably as familiar with him as you are from the Weiner & ACORN incident. And no, no pay for me. But that assertion feels like a compliment...thank you.

Next time you go to write something full of B.S., try doing a search at least.

You obviously took my posting the wrong way or got fixated on your point of Newt "starting" this hate stuff. Either way, I'm sorry you're still not getting my point that BOTH PARTIES use hate has a political weapon...therefore get off of your liberal's are holier then thou kick and spare us the hypocrisy.

DV Man & chad; I think I saw this guy on more Liberal media than I did Conservative TV. Now I get it - bring out the worst of the Conservative side, put it on TV, and use his over the top approach as a tool supporting other approaches; look at this guy, this is what will happen to you if you back the GOP!

I actually thought he was a liberal - shows me how able and willing I am too tune out half the political BS. I used to think I was missing out on some phase of adulthood by not following politics - now I see what a gift that is too be able to tune out the endless banter. Even Bill Maher has gotten old, and who can name the last time they watched Jon Stewart? If some of us Liberals are rejecting what were once our hero's, that means we moved even further away from both parties - not that we are moving toward conservatism.

This guy was a microcosm of what conservatives represent today - a paradigm that no amount of rhetoric ranting can repair. This guy was self serving - and that is how many citizens now see Conservatives, self serving with no shame.

Maybe I misunderstood Raider's comments, but I thought he meant that politics is better off without people ranting with the sort of hate that Kennedy and Breitbart used.

@StMiller...no I you got it right on, (above). You even said it more concisely, lol.

post 177+....ugh, no way the Script will run on this thread after today...rookie move...HAAAAA!

HAAA! it's now 12:53 (original post 12:49), after posting the above message, I did get the: Script Stopped Running error message - I'm Psychic.

I am "sure" that he is in a better place.

Well...at least it will be warmer there!

post 177+....ugh, no way the Script will run on this thread after today...rookie move...HAAAAA!

Hey...what's happenin'? Only 12:12 here...

There are some here that are saying that "Hate Kills." and that referring to Mr. Breitbart, he was particularly hateful towards his political opponents.

Well, I say, why don't you refer to gay activists as haters for the way they threaten anyone whom dare to simply disagree with their lifestyle, sexual behaviors, morals or lack thereof, and desire to undo traditional marriage?

I don't recall a single past instance where Mr. Breitbart threaten to kill anyone whom disagreed with him.

However, there are are tons of examples of hateful reactions, including name calling and death threats, that can be found here on the Internet, from gays toward anyone whom disagree let alone question them about how they live.

I often find Liberals to be quite hypocritical in this regard. Everyday they claim to be the 'Champions of Tolerance' when all-the-while, Liberals give gays a pass for their hateful reactions to their detractors and also even spew some hate of their own.

Thus, I would think most here would agree that if the Left is going to talk the talk of tolerance, it would be much beneficial for them to walk the walk!

Remember friends, Liberals are claiming the title of 'most tolerant', we are not.

Thank you.

43 would have been extremely old for a Neanderthal.

What is all the Hullabaloo about here.

Breitbart helped Arianna Huffington as her researcher, for The Arianna Huffington Post, and develop her website. That was when Arianna was a Republican.

Now that Arianna H. is a Liberal, he a Conservative Journalist; Breitbart continued to help her---His parents were killed in the Holocaust. He never slept, with demons in him from the past. Don't we all?

This information is from Wikipedia---

What's to complain about---? May Breitbart rest in Peace. "One Hand Feeds the Other".

The Lord said it is not for us to judge, that is His job

This is weird. I have a question for the people posting on this board. How many people do you personally know in their early 40's or younger who drops dead while walking. I know a lot of people and I can't even name one.

I hope his death is thoroughly checked out.

Good riddance. He was a hate monger, liar, and self centered jerk. What goes around comes around for Andrew.

David....for the most part, liberals are quite a bit more "tolerant" than the conservatives, especially the social conservatives who are the most intolerant bunch of stuffed shirts I know! Libs, for the most part, tend to live their lives the way they see fit, the way that makes them happy and content. They live by the mottoes "live and let live" and "can't we all just get along?". It's the people like Santorum, like Limbaugh, like Breitbart who go out of their way to promote/enact laws SPECIFICALLY targeting people they see as "unfit" to be treated with the same respect as they do.

Women can't be trusted to do the right things with their own bodies. Gays should be shunned and treated as second-class citizens, like they have some kind of disease that they can be cured of. That's the kind of tolerance you are speaking of, David? Social conservatives cannot bring themselves to just come to grips with the fact that everyone, no matter how unique they are, should be given at least the rights and respect as the "holier than thou" crowd of hypocrites. If you follow the laws of the land, are model citizens, are stewards of your communities, and you happen to be gay....why is it that you are somehow less deserving of basic human dignities and rights as anyone else?

I'm glad you admit to not being a tolerant person yourself (per your last sentence above). However, since Mr. Breitbart was intolerant to the very extremes, it just may be that all that hatred and contempt he had for those he despised MAY have contributed to his death. I agree with others on here who believe life is too short for hatred of your fellow man. Live and let live!!

Don't even THINK I would agree to anything you say Raider415. All of a sudden you come of with a holier than thou phrase of don't hate when all you do is lie and hate. Finally Dems, Independants and old school republicans are giving speaking up against the insanity of giving everything you have to the rich, speaking up against the racist hate of Pres Obama because he is half black. Who cares about Newt's invention on how to "control the media campaign?" Kidding us right? Everyone ...do the search on "Newt Gingrich words list" to see the master plan republicans use everyday against reality and truth. The bible of spin that Raider does not want you to know about. It is so funny how the republicans are shown over and over using the words chosen for them to say day after day on the John Stewart Show and Colbert Show. Don't hate the people who stole all your money by causing the greedy crash of the economy. Don't hate the republicans for killing the economy just to stop Pres Obama next election. Nothing more unAmerican than repubs destroying the nation with their greed to take every penny from every source and bank it offshore. Nothing to agree on with you Raider, all these comments show we are taking our country back from the greedy and ignorant banksters and wallstreeters and war profiteers. Andrew is in the same class as Rove, Rush, Norquist and all the republican candidates, destroy the nation in the name of greed. Hate and slander with the republican word list of the day!

Nanato3.....you said it all!! We're all sinners....and we're all going to be judged by God in the end. He knows what's in peoples' hearts and minds, not those of us who tend to rush to snap judgments of their fellow man because others may not feel the same as they do about everything.

If people would just live by the Golden Rule, can you even imagine how life would be, here on earth?

RdRockRaven and USA1776...So, what you are saying is that "others" have a right to thier say, their opinion...as long as the "others" are liberals? In my opinion, and it is my right to have my say, and my opinion and my say is that you are both demonstrating that you don't practice what you preach. Two people in glass houses throwing stones...

Wow! Voodoo dolls actually work!

There is a high correlation between cardio-vascular events (heart attack and stroke) and the hate that some people carry around with them. As Mark Twain observed: "Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured."

*************************************************************************

STUPID, STUPID, STUPID!!!!! Heart problems like so many other diseases are first and formost Genetic. That is why every doctors office has you fill out a family history.

LogicRequired...before you castigate another's opinion, do your homework.

Andrew Breitbart was adopted. It's possible he didn't know if he had a genetic predisposition to heart disease.

This was simply karma paying him back in spades. I did not hate him, I felt sorry and pity for him. Anybody that has that much hate/anger inside their heart could never be very happy. Now he will take his rightful place roasting marshmallows next to satan.

So Breitbart was adopted eh?.......Hmmmm...... isn't this where the teaparty should be saying he is not an American, that he was born in Africa, and needs to show his birth records, and school records?........I bet Breitbart would be saying this about anyone else! If a Dem had died Breitbart would be saying the Dem died just to upstage the death of Davey Jones...........Yeah, that is the kind of person he was.

Moral of the story. Hate kills. Stop hating, start reaching consensuses and governing from the center again.

End the cycle of hate started by George Bush.

Really? Cancer, heart attack, aneurysm - all natural causes.

Stop living in the past, Rocco - get your own life

Yes they do. A friend of mine passed in his sleep at 34 because of a previously undiagnosed valve problem. He was not overweight, didn't have cholesterol or blood sugar problems, excercised regularly, ate healthy - all of the things you're "supposed" to do to live a long life. He'd had a full physical 6 days before his death, and got a gold star from his doctor.

When it's your time, it's your time.

Geoorge Bush was not the man that started the cycle of hate. In fact, George W. Bush, no matter what else you might want to say about him, was (and is) a pretty nice guy. He doesn't hate people based on religion or skin color or ethnicity or any of those other things. He was the "compassionate" conservative, remember?

The vicious hate started a few years before Bush was elected President, and can accurately be ascribed to the Republican Party. Bush as President made the mistake of surrounding himself with the wrong advisors (Dick Cheney, Brownie) and was a rubber stamp for any legislation passed by his own political party. The real haters were in Congress or working behind the scenes or in the media (like hater Breitbart) to set strategy.

Age 43...died from natural causes? Really?

deeloo: He just called it like he saw it.

IDIOT

Maybe he came across the death panel and got approved.

justsara

I have been preaching those same words for years. We are all born with an expiration date. There was a story a few years back about a woman who missed her flight on one of the planes that flew into the world trade center, she died in a car accident the next day. The old saying of you can't cheat death is so true.

My father-in-law died at 49 from natural causes. Massive stroke, in fact. 43 is not too young to have a heart attack.

The vicious hate started a few years before Bush was elected President, and can accurately be ascribed to the Republican Party.

Does the name Lee Atwater ring any bells? Atwater was an advisor to Reagan and George H.W. Bush and Chairman of the RNC. He was a ruthless take-no-prisoners type who died of a brain tumor at age 40. Hate goes even further back than Atwater, but he was a hater without peer in his day.

Shut Fox noise off, put down the hotdog and the pepsi and try running around the block once or twice and eating a salad.

awesomest comment ever

Go for it, deprogrammer! You are so right.

Go for it, deprogrammer! You are so right.

@deprogrammer

...the man obviously had too much hate in his heart, I'm surprised pigboy limbaugh...

Do you honestly not see the hypocrisy in your statement? If you believe he died from "too much hate in his heart" I can only assume today you'll be making some major changes in YOUR life.

By "natural" they just mean it wasn't caused by something outside his body, like getting hit by a car or stabbed. Any type of organ failure would be techinically natural.

I didn't like the guy one bit, but the sudden death of a young husband and father is tragic no matter who you are.

Oh, and Realist: Now I've got "Ironic" stuck in my head.

The old saying of you can't cheat death is so true.

We are all going to die, true. But that is no reason to live a life of gluttony, sloth, drug/ alcohol abuse or general recklessness and stupidity.

You can't cheat death, but if you hide from death by taking excellent care of yourself you'll likely end up with a few extra years. Forty-three is really young to kick the bucket.

Breitbart died of mental illness:

Famous Breitbart Rant:

bahave yourselves!!!!!

you filthy...filthy..filthy...raping...murdering...freaks!!

The day he went ballistic at a group of OWS protestors.

Rest my case.

.

Death is sad, so peace to his fam. But it don't change that this man was full of lies and hate. The things that he spewed affected people negatively time and time again, Shirley Sherrod of course most notably. And I believe he did call it as HE saw it, and not how it was actually. When you live life as a liar, you must beware lightening and fiery pants. And that’s at all of us…

@JusBiden: "You're either for us or against us". Bush's great "decision" was to be The Divider - my way or else. Be careful what you wish for....

Arthur66: ..."Stop living in the past, Rocco - get your own life".....

Really? Four years ago is ancient history?

Hilarious.

Especially coming from the 'Let's return this country to the past' sect.

Give me a break. Nobody has forgotten how Bush and his conservative flying monkeys put this country in a hole. And very few people with brains think it's Obama's fault.

I know all the nonsense you people spew is dependant on us having amnesia, though.

Have a nice day. Lol.

Go ahead and eat it, we promise it wont hurt you and it increases our profit margin by 1000% percent so that's all that really matters anyway, because we are the JOB CREATORS and you are just our slaves.

deprogrammer, I like your style.

Maybe he died of Supernatural causes? As in, ^^^^, you know...

Ooooh...A heart attack drone would be such a cool thing...

I believe you're mistaken Dr. DevX. People do not suddenly attain an absolute knowledge of human anatomy/physiology just by believing that they know what they are talking about. They only think they've attained it. And when they open their mouths or put pen to paper to share with everybody what they "know", everyone sees what a fool they are. It's really quite embarrassing. I'd advise against doing it in the future.

kaybeetoys

You missed my point completely. And for future reference please do not take pieces of my post out of context and use it for your own personal agenda. Typical.

Haters this and haters that? You know what I hate? Freaking morons who try to manipulate the language by using stupid labels to denigrate people that they disagree with because they can't hold a logic based discussion on the subject. Haters, racists, etc etc etc. If you're only argument is to call someone an unsubstantiated name, then you have NO argument.

Does it make me a "hater" because I think that banks shouldn't be forced to give mortgages to people who can't afford them? According to some people it does. Does it make me a "hater" for saying that if people want to come to this country, they need to abide by the laws and come here legally? According to some people it does. Does it make me a "hater" for saying that if someone comes here from another country, they need to assimilate and learn English? According to some people it does. My granddad spoke Polish when he arrived at Ellis Island. He learned English and became a citizen. Does it make me a "hater" to say that people shouldn't be allowed to live their entire lives on welfare by having multiple illegitimate children? According to some people it does. Some will even say it makes me a "racist". Notice that I didn't mention race in my comment. SO if they see it as being racist, who's putting it there?

If your entire argument is name calling, go back to kindergarten and for God's sake, don't vote. You aren't educated enough to be able to make an informed vote.

I wonder if it was the Paula Cole diet plan? Good thing he has $$ and went quickly....there's nothing worse than a conservative sucking up public Medicare dollars!!

The man was brutally honest. There's not enough of that in today's world. Republicans aren't Nazis or skinheads any more than Democrats aren't commies or socialists. In our media driven society the people who speak out and are larger than life get most of the press. So leave this guy alone you haters. Think of his family. Losing someone at 83 is bad, but he was only 43!

p.s. Native Man please work on your grammar; your sentence should read (But it doesn't change, not it don't change). Also it's lightning not lightening if you are referring to an electrical discharge.

...."He just called it like he saw it".....

You got it completely backwards.

He saw like he called it. And so did all of his followers.

They saw it like he called it.

He is in a better place. A better place for US.

Hope he brought some marshmallows.

Lt Scrounge says something that we all know its true, but the libs don't care.

kaybeetoys

You missed my point completely. And for future reference please do not take pieces of my post out of context and use it for your own personal agenda. Typical.

I didn't miss your point, "Realist"...I disagreed with it.

We're talking about a 43-year-old man who died of 'natural causes', and you make it sound like he was hit by a bus. It was 'just his time to go'?

My point is that we should not accept as natural a death that occurs at age 43. We don't know what killed Breitbart, but it sure sounds like it was a heart attack. Maybe you're OK with death from cardiac disease at that age, but I'm not.

Rest easy. I won't quote you again.

Have a nice day, and a long healthy life.

kaybeetoys

Your point is noted, but is highly flawed. Please do some research on natural causes of death and especially on genetic heart problems. From your posts I have read you appear to be under the delusion that you know it all. Well, in this case you don't. I could make this post take up the entire page by quoting medical statistics and names and ages of people who have died before the age of 50 of natural causes. In addition my mother died at 45 of breast cancer, a natural cause. Furthermore natural causes include brain aneurysms, etc. Please spend some time educating yourself on what natural cause of death means. And in no way did I make it seem or appear Andrew was hit by a bus. A little hyperbole on your part there. Again, typical distortion of what I typed AND stated.

So you've already completed the autopsy and know the cause of Breitbart's death?

Do tell.

(My condolences for the untimely death of your mother.)

Commonsense;

Commonsense, really? Your going with that? So a couple of decades of unpopular positions in the view of the Democrats offsets more than two centuries of hatred perpetrated by them? Seriously? Tell us again the party who positions include, pro-slavery, anti-desegregation, anti-civil rights, anti-women's rights, anti-Native American and Black citizenship and rights, owners of the worse workers right corporations in the countries history, and who retains their, "We know best how to run you life" attitude to this very day? That's right the Democrats.

They say the greatest trick the Devil ever perpetrated on man was convincing him he does not exist. Clearly the Democrats have managed the same trick. After centuries of abuses and usurpation's, They have convinced these same people whom they Systematically denied basic freedom it was the Republicans. And you have the nerve to call others hypocritical? So much for your having any sense of conscience.

I will not miss this man.

Nicodemus - as you well know, the Southern Democrats and Dixiecrats who perpetuated the abuses you're listing ALL switched parties during the GOP's "Southern Strategy" realignment.

Did you think we all didn't notice?

In American politics, the Southern strategy refers to the Republican Party strategy of winning elections in Southern states by exploiting anti-African Americanracism and fears of lawlessness among Southern white voters and appealing to fears of growing federal power in social and economic matters (generally lumped under the concept of states' rights). Though the "Solid South" had been a longtime Democratic Party stronghold due to the Democratic Party's defense of slavery prior to the American Civil War and segregation for a century thereafter, many white Southern Democrats stopped supporting the party following the civil rights plank of the Democratic campaign in 1948 (triggering the Dixiecrats), the African-American Civil Rights Movement, the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965, and desegregation.

The strategy was first adopted under future Republican President Richard Nixon and Republican Senator Barry Goldwater in the late 1960s. The strategy was successful in some regards. It contributed to the electoral realignment of Southern states to the Republican Party, but at the expense of losing more than 90 percent of black voters to the Democratic Party. As the 20th century came to a close, the Republican Party began trying to appeal again to black voters, though with little success. In 2005, Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman formally apologized for his party's use of the Southern Strategy in the previous century.

But don't let the truth get in the way of your propaganda, by any means. I believe that's a requirement of membership in the GOP these days, and you wouldn't want them to suspect you of not being a loyal foot soldier.

"A human being is a Human Being"; and there are pure Evil ones who deserve to be desecrated by words; this man was not--

This is not a time to post negative Political Agenda on a man (Breitbart) who passed away at a young age. -Never know, it could be you the next time. Death knows no time for us to leave this world.

Sincere Condolences to his family; May he rest in peace.

We need people with different opinions. Freedom of Speech---

I have no use for the hate filled disgusting things he said. That aside, my sympathies to his friends and family. A heart attack at 43 is so unexpected and they had no way to know his time would be so short.

RealAmericansFirst;

Odd screen name, unless you are a native American, you are an import. That makes the screen name as hypocritical as the Democrats. You really need to look into the D party as a whole, not just pick chestnuts for talking points. Northern Democrats held the same beliefs as their Southern cousins. Did not the North have slaves, well into the civil war? Yes, they did, is the correct answer. Referring to them as domestic servants and giving them only room and board as compensation. A slave by any other name. It was the Republican party opposed slavery, forwarded desegregation, women's rights, civil rights, etc. you say the GOP is corrupt, I say, looking at history the left has never changed, they retain their elitist position, they enslave economically now, with out the chains of the past, but economic slavery is just as abusive. The Devil can quote scripture and today it's the gospel of "We know best", wrapped in science and tied up neatly with political correctness. I see the left for what it remains. The blued blooded, destined to rule, American Aristocratic elite. Nice try. The truth is what the left says it is, according to them. You clearly share this view. But don't let facts and history stop you from continuing the trick.

one of your conservative brethren has crossed the Jordon and entered the Pearly Gates for an eternity of bliss? Well Get Over It, he, by your incessant insistence is in a better place. As far as his memory among the living, let what is done to his family and friends be what he did to the friends and family of others in the same situation, you know, "The Golden Rule." If you are going to live by a dogma you should be willing to observe the tenets of that dogma not only in life but in the face of death.

What was Breitbart doing going for a 'walk' after midnight? Was he drunk or high? Was he buying drugs? And who saw him 'collapse'.

I exercise a lot at least five hours a week but I don't do it after midnight... I'm just saying there could be more to this.

43?! That guy looks at least 50+ in his pictures. I just showed his picture to my girlfriend and asked how old she thought this guy was and she said late 50's. He's like a Latin American baseball player... Way older than he says he is.

The liberal "yes masser" Democrats true colors are coming out. As much as I despise Obama I pray that he stays healthy, God forbid, Biden is next in line for president.

Sean-336944

kaybeetoys, you need to get over it. FFS, I had a heart attack and 42 and went to sleep knowing it was occurring but figuring I'd rather die in my own house than in some ER. I laugh about my heart attack myself, though I admit it was scary and very unfun. But it was hardly unexpected and it's easily dealt with. If I die tonight from another, so be it, I've had my time and I won't know any difference. I don't expect anyone to cry for me the way you're crying for Breitbart.

Funny how the actual experience is so valuable in putting these things into perspective. It's not the end of the world, and it's not a mystery, it's just the end of one arguably unredeeming human being among billions.

Breitbart had it easy on his way out with little suffering by the sound of it. The policies he backed and advocated for enforce suffering. And now the man's dead like we all will be one day. Life goes on.

Sean, I'm not upset specifically about Andrew Breitbart...no way, no how.

I can't be classed as one of his fans in any way, shape or form. I just think it's wrong when we accept dying from a heart attack at 43 as 'natural' in this country when we know how to prevent the vast majority of such deaths. It's an issue that affects all of us, and I'm simply advocating for personal responsibility in making the lifestyle choices that affect our health.

I'm sorry to learn that you also suffer from cardiac problems, and I wish you good health and long life.

Breitbart looked at leat 10 years older than his real age.

Maybe he didn't take care of himself, and/or his hateful vitriol caused damage to his own cardiovascular system.

I don't believe in the "when it's your time, it's your time" crap.

I've barely escaped being killed or severely injured, due to being blessed with quick reflexes/thinking(and using them well), more than a few times in my life.

Taking care of yourself and using common sense/logic, can go a LONG way in keeping you alive and healthy. It won't always save someone, but it works the majority of the time. Some people are screwed no matter how they try to live right/healthy, but most of us can influence how long our lifespans are(barring unforseen accidents or catastrophes beyond our control).

My condolences to his family.

Hopefully Breitbart wasn't as hateful towards them, as he was towards those he liked to scapegoat.

It is so sad that Justin Breitbart died. I will miss his music and what he has contributed to the music industry......Surely he will be in heaven playing and singing with the angels.....Oh...wait a minute.......... ..Andrew Breitbart died...not ...the singer?......Oh that lying jerk full of hate ...never mind!

Not sure if he was of the morbidly obese or just a typical overweight American but appears he`s definitely one of the 66%ers so easy to understand how he could just drop dead.

Rot In Peace, Andrew. You`ll not be missed here.

DevX

People don't die of natural causes a 43. Just sayin'.

And birth control isn't an issue in 2012. Just sayin'.

Good riddance Breitbart, the world is a better place without you.

Hopefully the head of Media Matters will kick the bucket very soon.

Or maybe as punishment, God will make him stay on earth and be the paranoid, miserable soul he is..........he needs to continue to suffer.

I've learned this much by reading the comments on the sudden death of Andrew Breitbart:

However controversial my opinion may be, and however strongly I express it, whether I am right or wrong, I hope I won't let anger overcome my reason and my honor.

When I die, I don't want to be vilified on the internet by hundreds, maybe thousands of people who never knew me.

We all have a choice to make in life-- do we occupy our short time here with loving and creating, by making the world better in even the smallest way?

Or do we spend our lives destructively, causing harm to ourselves and our fellow man?

We all leave behind a legacy, no matter how unimportant or unknown we may be.

Voice of reason? You've got to be kidding?

What he did to Shirley Sherrod was so evil. He messed with one of God's children. That.is.all.

Sky was lost in the first volley...and then she mattird Rocco...

A voice of reason? You call a person who distorts the truth and lies, reasonable? That is sick. Give honor where honor is due, but he was due none at all.

DV Man, then you must consider all the employees of MSNBC to be unreasonable, as all that channel does is distort the truth.

Chicago Jeff, you say MSNBC distorts the truth... so Andy Breitbart really isn't dead then?

OMG! A voice of reason? Unbelievable.

It is not reasonable to use your influence to get someone fired for something they didn't do! What he did to the Dept. of Agriculture employee was just plain wrong!

That was an attempt at sarcasm, right?

Voice? Yes.

Reason? No.

What he did to Shirley Sherrod was so evil.

No doubt about that. It was evil, and it appears to have ben deliberately done.

The other evil is that normally rational people accept such filth as the lies spread about Ms. Sherrod as true, without bothering to question the source (Breitbart). He wouldn't have gotten away with it if more people had the moral courage to condemn such despicalbe acts.

No that wasn't an attempt at sarcasm, not everybody that dies is a tragedy, this is an example of that.

Excuse me. You left out the 'T' at the beginning of reason ;)

You have clearly lost you mind. Breitbart was a liar and a fraud, nothing more.

let's make sure everybody's nice to you then, you big baby

Gabrielle Giffords would disagree...

I'm serious. You lefties talk a good game about "civility" and about how we have to "end the cycle of violence", but when someone you hate is hurt or killed (just look at some of the comments when Chris Christie had an asthma attack and when Scott Brown revealed he had been molested as a child---those were particularly disgusting), you ideologues break out the champagne and say "One down, millions to go!"

Whether you liked him or not, a man died. A man with a loving family and friends, perhaps not terribly much different from you. Like someone above said, "if you have nothing good to say, say nothing at all".

Your comments reveal just how "progressive" you are, which is to say, not very. What exactly separates you from Jared Loughner?

You people should be ashamed of yourselves.

Sad that he did not get a chance to apologize like Lee Atwater did before he died. Even tho the Repubs said Atwater did it "b/c he was dying," to have the chance to question and check your own positions and attitudes was simply not there for this guy.

Gabrielle Giffords got a Navy ship named after her and all because she was a brave liberal democrat who survived getting shot in the head by some whacko. Will Andrew Breitbart get the same courtesy?

You can't possibly be serious. Giffords was a congresswomen who suffered a grievous injury inflicted by a nut job. Breitbart was a hate monger trying to make a buck by saying outrageous things who died of "natural causes". There is absolutely no comparison.

I'm serious. You lefties talk a good game about "civility" and about how we have to "end the cycle of violence", but when someone you hate is hurt or killed (just look at some of the comments when Chris Christie had an asthma attack...

Christie is a walking heart attack. He is morbidly obese. Not a very good role model, is he?

His blatantly obvious, self-induced health problems make him unfit for high office, both physically and mentally.

If he doesn't get control of himself and get his life on track, he could very well be the next conservative to go.

kaybeetoys, you honestly think that I was talking about Christie's health? There were lefties wishing death on Christie. Don't tell me that you want to be associated with those kinds of people!

Cycle of violence. You can stop it too, Sean.

Armando-1888053

kaybeetoys, you honestly think that I was talking about Christie's health? There were lefties wishing death on Christie. Don't tell me that you want to be associated with those kinds of people!

I'm confused, Armando. You mentioned his asthma.

It appears to me that Christie is wishing death on himself.

He is the only one who can save himself...he just needs to put down that fork. (I wasn't referring to his pitchfork either.)

I'm confused, Armando.

Here's a sample of what I'm talking about. My point stands.

Armando... little blog secret.... Just because they said they were liberal and wishing him death, doesn't make it true... there are several people who claim to be liberal, but their hate speech gives them away everytime.... So they were most likely conservatives trying to make liberals look bad, they do that quite a bit on these blogs.

Grow up, Armando.

A man has died and your reaction is to lash out at honest inquiries?

When Christie keels over from a heart attack, you'll be crying your eyes out. But you won't do anything to save him. That would be the honest thing to do, wouldn't it?

there are several people who claim to be liberal, but their hate speech gives them away everytime

my opine, here's another blog secret: the No True Scotsman fallacy.

Imagine Hamish McDonald, a Scotsman, sitting down with his Glasgow Morning Herald and seeing an article about how the "Brighton Sex Maniac Strikes Again." Hamish is shocked and declares that "No Scotsman would do such a thing." The next day he sits down to read his Glasgow Morning Herald again and this time finds an article about an Aberdeen man whose brutal actions make the Brighton sex maniac seem almost gentlemanly. This fact shows that Hamish was wrong in his opinion but is he going to admit this? Not likely. This time he says, "No true Scotsman would do such a thing."
—Antony Flew

kaybeetoys, I don't know if you're being deliberately obtuse or not, but Christie's weight is besides the point. My objection is that we have all these ostensible "progressives" here creaming their pants over the death of a man they didn't like, which is awfully rich, considering their cries for a more civil political discourse in America following the Gifford shooting. If it wasn't right for conservatives to do it when Ted Kennedy died, it certainly isn't right for you guys to do it when someone like Breitbart dies.

Am I wrong?

Let me define the term "Hate Speech" to those of you who are missing the 'reason' gene....

Hate Speech. Any speech directed at those who are not supremacists. NOT the other way around.

Pretty simple stuff. Supremacists shouldn't be whining about "hate speech" being directed at them.

Have a nice day.

Hate Speech. Any speech directed at those who are not supremacists. NOT the other way around.

And who defines the word "supremacist", shut yer yap? You? Louis Farrakhan? The KKK?

How about: hate speech is wrong whenever anybody does it!

kaybeetoys, I don't know if you're being deliberately obtuse or not, but Christie's weight is besides the point.

Oh really? A 43-year-old man has just died from an apparent heart attack and you don't think weight had anything to do with that? Take a good look at Breitbart. He looked twenty years older than a typical healthy 43-year-old....he was not a man who was in good physical shape for his age.

My point was about how our lifestyle choices influence our health.

My objection is that we have all these ostensible "progressives" here creaming their pants over the death of a man they didn't like, which is awfully rich, considering their cries for a more civil political discourse in America following the Gifford shooting. If it wasn't right for conservatives to do it when Ted Kennedy died, it certainly isn't right for you guys to do it when someone like Breitbart dies.

Am I wrong?

Show me where I posted a single negative word about Breitbart. I'm not criticizing the man as a person. Am I wrong to believe we should live longer than 43?

Gabby Giffords was shot in the head. Maybe that's natural to you, but not to me...so don't use her as a comparison to Breitbart.

Have you noticed that it's always liberals who get shot by conservatives and never the other way around?

We're talking about two completely different things here, kay. If you want to talk about Breitbart's cardiovascular health and how it compares to Chris Christie, go knock yourself out. It's not my concern.

Show me where I posted a single negative word about Breitbart.

Have you ever considered the possibility that I may not be talking about you, kay, but rather your compatriots? You know, the ones with the majority of the collapsed comments?

Gabby Giffords was shot in the head. Maybe that's natural to you, but not to me...so don't use her as a comparison to Breitbart.

Given the political vitriol that allegedly lead to the Giffords shooting, I don't see how I can't use her as a comparison. Here's an example: take the comment from our dear friend Marcus below. If you truly believe that political vitriol played a role in the Tuscon massacre, then the sort of eliminationist rhetoric that Marcus and others are using in this thread is unacceptable.

Have you noticed that it's always liberals who get shot by conservatives and never the other way around?

Protip: you can't prove a negative statement.

We're talking about two completely different things here, kay. If you want to talk about Breitbart's cardiovascular health and how it compares to Chris Christie, go knock yourself out. It's not my concern.

I got the impression from what you posted that you felt I was somehow criticizing Breitbart for his ideology, when in fact I said nothing whatsoever about it. My comment was strictly about his health and his untimely death.

If you were a Breitbart supporter, why is it not your concern how he died?

And do I have your permission to comment on his possible cause of death or anything else I care to comment on? Do we still have free speech here?

Have you ever considered the possibility that I may not be talking about you, kay, but rather your compatriots? You know, the ones with the majority of the collapsed comments?

My compatriots? Here is the reality: We are all Americans. They are your compatriots too.

If you truly believe that political vitriol played a role in the Tuscon massacre, then the sort of eliminationist rhetoric that Marcus and others are using in this thread is unacceptable.

Don't blame me for the opinions of others or try to attribute one person's comment as representative of anyone else's views.

Have you noticed that it's always liberals who get shot by conservatives and never the other way around?

Conservatives such as Lee Harvey Oswald, Sirhan Sirhan & Jared Loughner? Or are these just exceptions to your "rule"?

My comment was strictly about his health and his untimely death.

And my point is about civility and hypocrisy. That is what I'm concerned about. Not the thickness of the plaque layer in Breitbart's superior vena cava.

And do I have your permission to comment on his possible cause of death or anything else I care to comment on? Do we still have free speech here?

If I rescinded the First Amendment, I'd hope that I'd remember that I did it. Besides, I gave you permission when I said "If you want to talk about Breitbart's cardiovascular health and how it compares to Chris Christie, go knock yourself out." What I didn't say was that I'd engage you in a conversation about it.

And my point is about civility and hypocrisy. That is what I'm concerned about. Not the thickness of the plaque layer in Breitbart's superior vena cava.

It's odd that you are concerned about civility, yet you apparently supported the late Andrew Breitbart's style.

That strikes me as hypocrisy.

My point was about his health (or lack thereof).

If I rescinded the First Amendment, I'd hope that I'd remember that I did it. Besides, I gave you permission when I said "If you want to talk about Breitbart's cardiovascular health and how it compares to Chris Christie, go knock yourself out." What I didn't say was that I'd engage you in a conversation about it.

Thanks for granting me the right to speak, your Highness. If you didn't want to engage in a conversation about health, why did you reply to my comment which was clearly about health?

When the left hates, they hate because of an action. When the right hates, they hate because someone might get uppity and think they are equal to a white male christian teabagger.

I can't believe no one has anything to say about the above comment by "daryl". Not to mention the 23 "likes" this narrow minded daryl got.

Note to Liberals.....if you want more respect then you should really call people like daryl out. He gives the Dem party a bad name.

I love how when a rightie makes a generalization re religion or race they are QUICKLY assaulted by the libs. But when one of their own (daryl) says something about Christians and/or white ppl....no one says a word.

There is always room for redemption if one has the time. Breibart became well-known quickly on the shirt-tails of the Tea Party and Obama-haters. He liked being famous and said whatever it took to stay that way, regardless of truth, regardless of consequence. He thrived on the spotlight. If he had lived longer, there is the possibility that he would have grown a conscience or even a sense of right and wrong. That is why his death is sad...that and the grief his family must be feeling.

Hatred breeds hatred. To feel disdain for his positions is understandable and in my judgement correct, to feel hatred for him is misguided and serves no constructive purpose and only compels others to hate back.

There are some here that are saying that "Hate Kills." and that referring to Mr. Breitbart, he was particularly hateful towards his political opponents.

Well, I say, why don't you refer to gay activists as haters for the way they threaten anyone whom dare to simply disagree with their lifestyle, sexual behaviors, morals or lack thereof, and desire to undo traditional marriage?

I don't recall a single past instance where Mr. Breitbart threaten to kill anyone whom disagreed with him.

However, there are are tons of examples of hateful reactions, including name calling and death threats, that can be found here on the Internet, from gays toward anyone whom disagree let alone question them about how they live.

I often find Liberals to be quite hypocritical in this regard. Everyday they claim to be the 'Champions of Tolerance' when all-the-while, Liberals give gays a pass for their hateful reactions to their detractors and also even spew some hate of their own.

Thus, I would think most here would agree that if the Left is going to talk the talk of tolerance, it would be much beneficial for them to walk the walk!

Remember friends, Liberals are claiming the title of 'most tolerant', we are not.

Thank you.

There are some here that are saying that "Hate Kills." and that referring to Mr. Breitbart, he was particularly hateful towards his political opponents.

Well, I say, why don't you refer to gay activists as haters for the way they threaten anyone whom dare to simply disagree with their lifestyle, sexual behaviors, morals or lack thereof, and desire to undo traditional marriage?

David, you are questioning the morality and motives of gay people as a group. Do you believe that sexual orientation makes some people immoral? Do you think gays wish to destroy the marriages of heterosexuals? Do you think gays use violence and intimidation towards those who disagree with their views?

Please cite some examples for your viewpoint.

I'm not sure how you would define tolerance. I think it's fair for progressives to say that we have difficulty tolerating all the intolerance in America.

Don't see many right-wingers beaten up and left to die on fencelines because of their sexual orientation, or dragged to death because of the color of their skins, or shot in the head because of their politics. We libs tend to be a more tolerant and, dare I say it, Christian lot.

I would suggest an autopsy just to be sure of cause of death.

Underlying health problems are still considered natural causes.

Things that aren't considered natural causes: Drug overdoses, homicide, suicide, accidents (such as car accidents, etc.).

MI's, aneurysms, cancer, abdominal aortic aneurysm ruptures, etc., etc. are all natural causes.

...natural causes include heart attacks, the #1 killer in men and women today.

Is choking on your own venom considered "natural causes". I'm pretty sure that's what got him.

A seizure is also considered a natural cause. A person does not have to have a history of seizures, either. It only takes one.

Asesome! ROFL

My mother died on December 20, 1965 at the age of 45 (I was 8) from breast cancer...a natural cause.

Does the reason he died really matter. He was someone's son, friend, brother and now he is gone. I despised Mr. Brietbart's tactics and polictics, but he was entitled to his opinion and to state, tweet, publish his opinion thanks to our constitution. Moments after his sad and sudden death is not the time to hunt for the salacious angle and to trash him as a person because...he was just that...a person. He is entitled to rest in peace.

@jachca

Please, Brietbart 'badmouthed' Whitney Houston after her death, he had to know that he was going one day too, but look what he said about Ted Kennedy after his death, why is it perfectly okay for conservatives to say nasty things about others but we have to remember their roles in life after they leave? I am tired of the standards that are set by conservatives but they will not tolerate the exact same treatment from all 'others'.

And lets remember he was drunk when he was yelling at the occupy protesters, did anybody get drunk and yell at the tea baggers? Should think not...

What's good for the goose is damn good for the gander.

Wouldn`t the delusional refer to this as god`s will?

I bet if Arianna Huffington, God forbid, drops dead, it'd just be random @!$%# happening, right Rich?

No, it would be a right-wing conspiracy orchestrated by GWB.

: rolls eyes :

No such thing as karma. Wishful, fanciful thinking for those who deny God.

There's no such thing as god. Wishful, fanciful thinking for those who deny Karma.

Armando.

Arianna Huffington does not preach hatred.

Breitbart was on an all out assault against everybody who wasn't a conservative supremacist.

Just because you fall under that catagory doesn't mean that Huffington working to end your brand of supremacy is hate speech.

have a nice day.

raddave

...."There's no such thing as god. Wishful, fanciful thinking for those who deny Karma"....

So your God DID do it? He finally got something right.

Tell him to have a nice day for me.

Arianna Huffington and the writers at the Huffington Post go a little overboard in their leftist activism.

Some of them think Obama is right of center(like righties believe Obama is a leftist). I think Obama goes back and forth over the center line(he's governed mostly to the center, like any logical politician should). Most Americans fall somewhere in the center.

Arianna, the HP and other "leftists" or progressives can't hold a candle to those on the right(like Breitbart/Beck/Limbaugh/Hannity/Norquist/Rove/Gingrich/Santorum/Palin/Bachmann/McConnell), when it comes to lying and spewing hateful vitriol.

From my centered point of view, it's easy to see the extreme right is much worse than most leftists.

Breitbart was a fingerpointer/liar of the highest order(not the worst, but he was up there).

absolutely it could be congenital and be called 'natural causes'. My dad had a heart attack in his mid 70's, and it was determined that the cause was NOT his BP, cholesterol levels, etc, but rather he had a 'congenital KINK' in a very tiny blood vessel. The doctors dissolved the clot with drugs, and did an angioplasty, and he lived for another 15 years in GREAT physical condition. But if he hadn't lived less than a mile from our hospital, and been a light sleeper, he too probably might have died.

All I can say is that Andrew Breitbart looked a good twenty years older than 43. An autopsy should reveal the cause of his death, and it wouldn't surprise me if it had to do mostly with his lifestyle choices.

@kaybeetoys

I would not be surprised if it were a combination of drugs and alcohol. What other reason would he be talking a 'walk' after midnight unless it was a drug purchase?

Ethelouise

@kaybeetoys

I would not be surprised if it were a combination of drugs and alcohol. What other reason would he be talking a 'walk' after midnight unless it was a drug purchase?

I'm not going so far as to suggest that. He apparently collapsed a little after 11 pm. Maybe he was outside smoking a cigarette? It's all conjecture at this point. But if you met him and didn't know his age, just going by his looks I think most would have assumed he was much older than 43.

That's way too young for anyone to die, especially a man with four children.

My goal is to die at the age of 100, shot by a woman's irate husband. ;)

Well played, well played!

Screaming in public, alcoholic beverage in hand, isn't a good image to project. I suspect that, if cremated, it'll take days for the flames to die down! Does this mean James O'Keefe has to find legitimate employment?

Interesting which politicians responded though - Eric Cantor, for instance. This reminds me of when Bushs 41 and 43 called Limbaugh's radio show to wish the addict a happy birthday. The pundits that they chose to align themselves with speaks volumes, doesn't it.

@pedestrian-in-SF

I think you may be closer to the truth than you know. What was he doing going for a 'walk' after midnight unless it was to make a drug purchase?
