I am a bit older than Breitbart, and I had readily conceded that his views on liberalism were bound to be more well developed and focused than mine, and I cannot say how gratifying it is to hear Breitbart's views and realize that I have arrived at the same destinations and focal points, though not perhaps by the same path.
It is not so much that he and I are in agreement, but that we arrived at the same conclusions by differing thought processes.
It is validation for me.
Normally, I try not to place so much stock in validation, but in my journey to this spot, I have deliberately charged myself with questioning my premises, again, and again, and again.
Retrospection is a trait most liberals lack, and I have deliberately tried to ensure I am less likely to fall into that trap. I constantly question whether I am wrong or not.
Andrew Breitbart, may he rest in peace, has gone a long way to lessen the load of that self-imposed burden of doubt.
Not to "pimp my BLOG" but I pretty much had the same reaction to his book. http://texasroadkill.org/index.php/component/content/article/34-blog/52-we-have-lost-our-general
I was one of the lucky ones and got to correspond with him after I read his book and it changed who I was which is a lot. I had been a FReeper for years before Breitbart came to the national spotlight, how do you get more radicalized then being a FReeper??? But I did, he had that effect and I am so very grateful to him.
