Andrew Breitbart is DEAD

Holy Crap.

I’m in shock.

ths Update:

-ths picture of Breitbart @ Presidency 5 in Orlando, FL, September 2011. A lousy picture, because he wouldn’t hold still.

I’m finally home from work and I can’t add much, but my tears to all the thoughts out there on the innerwebs today. I was privileged to sit a mere five rows back from Andrew when he addressed the delegates at Presidency 5 this September. He was mesmerizing from the moment he gamboled out to the podium. What a treat that was and I wouldn’t have missed it for the world in normal circumstances. Who could ever have imagined this day six months later, when dealing with a force of nature like Breitbart?

I can’t. I still can’t.

So I will leave you with his CPAC speech, which is a masterful, Breitbart tour de force and a fitting call to arms for those of us still trying to grasp the fact that this is “for reals”. We had our Happy Warrior flinging himself willy nilly into the fray and now he’s gone.

Gotta do it ourselves. As Andrew said, “We’re not gonna take it anymore.”

    Deat at 43, of natural causes???

    I hope he gave that video to someone for safekeeping. You know, the one he said would blow the doors off Obama’s college claims.

    Does anyone know where Eric Holder was last night?

    If I were Sheriff Joe Arpaio, I’d be looking over my shoulder.

    This is terribly sad. My prayers for his family. I hope his projects and website can continue.

    Freedom and liberty has lost a valiant warrior.

    43, and with young children, just a horrendous loss to the family.

  8. Greg Newson says:

    He was very young to die of a heart attack.It’s possible,very common in the 1950s;but, with fish oil and
    vitamins available now,very rare at 43.
    Could be a Vince Foster thing,or just an oddity of nature?

    Perhaps his last interview occurred at 5pm, only a few hours before he died. With whom was that interview held?

    Sheriff Joe Arpaio

    The left is having an orgasm over his death. The next time they talk about civility, lets do a great line from the movie By Dawn’s Early Light:
    Admiral boarding E-4 to SP: Good luck son.
    SP: Shove it up their commie asses sir!

    It’s not implausible for men in their 40s in high-stress jobs, etc. to have heart attacks, especially drinkers, smokers, and people with high cholesterol. The survival rate has increased because of better emergency interventions. There is also a major genetic component to heart disease. I’m sorry for his family.
