Note that he socialized with Ayers and Dohrn three weeks before his death. Would have been very easy to have administered slow acting poison that mimicked the symptoms of a heart attack and leaves no trace in an autopsy. Do I actually think that A & D would do such a thing and commit murder on such a hated foe? Sure do.
They were probably involved, as well as Obama and others, but the actual hit was done by very experienced assassins ... AKA CIA.
Hate to tell you this but death is going to come around to us all. That is the one thing in life you can NOT avoid
So yes it came around and will for us all
I was referring to his public show of disrespect for the Ted Kennedy after he died. Therefore, Breitbart is not necessarily worthy of respect after his death either.
There are some seriously horrible people posting to this thread. If you were my friends in real life and I have many from all parts of the political spectrum and said things like this after brietbart or an al franken or if something happened to Obama.....I'd pretty much start to put as much distance on as possible.
Wow. Get some help people.
Oh fecking stop it already.
You know I was thinking about it yesterday while watching the phony tribute to him on MSNBC who tried artfully to acknowledge their mild disagreement with the public figure while trying to respect the private man. That's what seems to be the thing to do nowadays in media, and it just goes to show that the whole thing is a dog and pony show, whether we're talking about Fox News or MSNBC.
The simple fact is the Breitbart, regardless of what he was like in private among friends, was a complete and utter wanker who used his power and his leverage in the media to attack people who were a-political in an attempt to smear his political adversaries. That, my friend, is what many decent people would call chickensh*t. Because any MAN -- any REAL man -- knows that the honorable thing to do is to pick on someone who can defend themselves. Instead he took ordinary people who were just doing their jobs and tried to smear them, just to make the president and his democratic adversaries look bad. There is nothing heroic about that; there's not even anything really democratic or libertarian about that. He was just being a disgusting, yeast-infested vagina of a human being for doing that. And I doubt Shirley Sherrod or the individual employees who worked for ACORN are sniveling one bit over the death of a man who tried to ruin their lives just to score a political point with Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi.
But it's not surprising that many republitards identify with someone who is a chickensh*t. Republitards typically embrace chickensh*t and chickensh*t policies. They embrace beating up on the poor. They embrace invading third world countries and fly off the handle and pee in their pants if third world countries actually try to develop their own military capabilities. They embrace war in general but won't dare set foot in a recruiting office to enlist and will make up all kinds of excuses to avoid being drafted. Republitards are basically lowly, cowardly people, whose values are reflected by cowardly bloggers who sit behind the safety of their keyboards and security of their social networks.
So if you want me to say kind things about Andrew Breitbart, sorry, bro, I'm gonna have to hold up the mirror on this one. I would just offer you this: If you want people to respect you in death, then don't be a prick in life.
Lesson learned. if you are a loud conservative, expect to be murdered.
Completely different from the lesson I took from it. Don't take your health for granted. don't stress, eat healthy, exercise, don't abuse alcohol or drugs, and enjoy every minute like it was your last.

It's obvious that dancing on graves was the point. Progressives are showing their pettiness, when a mans life means nothing if it was spent proving them wrong, which he did with ease, regularly.

If you watched his lasst appearance on The Young Turks you would have seen him dressed like a homeless person looking drugged out and babbling incoherently. This guy was using something heavy and it killed him

You're on a roll, bro. All well said and very true. I wish I could rep you right now. Hell, I wish I could rep this post a few times.

"Proving them wrong" is a subjective point you're trying to argue.
Breitbart was a coward who used his power as a well-bankrolled and well-connected media star to inflict real pain on people who were nothing more than hourly employees and in the case of Sherrod, an otherwise unremarkable bureaucrat who had earned at least enough respect to be promoted over time. Moreover, he used tactics that were later revealed, upon investigation, to be dubious at best, and outright fraudulent at worst. He clearly doctored and manipulated the truth because he thought that the 'truth' can't be trusted to tell its own story, that he has to make it up where it doesn't exist. But it's not really surprising, and I can see the appeal to republitards, because it seems like every republitard who comes to Breitbart's defense and wants to eulogize the prick has similarly psychotic attitudes toward the working poor and otherwise mundane people. So it really comes as no surprise.
I find it really, really, really disingenuous that republitards who on the one hand revel and take delight in the pain that people like Andrew Breitbart seem to inflict with glee want us to suddenly take a moment of pause to reflect soberly on the quality of his life. I find it even more disingenuous that people who have consistently amped up the vitriolic nature of the rhetoric against people with whom they disagree are now suddenly indignant at the fact that Breitbart's being mocked and maligned in death, and that the tone ain't exactly pretty. Look, bro, Andrew Breitbart absolutely contributed to this bitterly partisan, cynical, vitriolic, and caustic tone that has continued to increasingly permeate the public discourse and seems to predominate over the airwaves and in cyberspace. On a personal level, no, I don't take delight in his death, but I'm not going to hold hands and act fake and ignore the negative impact he had on people and frankly on my democracy that I happen to care very much about.
