He cheated death 2 times already but doesn't look like a third reprieve is likely.

He will be missed.

Although I don't listen to talk radio and have never heard David Brudnoy, I have certainly heard of him. This is sad news indeed. MY prayers go out to him and his family.

A great talk radio personality who has always been on our side.

The classiest radio presence I've ever heard. Erudite, polite, clearheaded. A libertarian if I am not mistaken.

Due to schedules, I have not been able to listen to Brudnoy for a very long time.

David is one of (if not the) the most intelligent commentators that I have personally ever heard in the media.

I had the honor of introducing Mr. Brudnoy as a keynote speaker twelve years ago. Chatting with him both before and after his speech was an enormous pleasure. A brilliant thinker and vociferous defender of liberty, the empty hole left by his departure will not be soon filled, intellectually or otherwise.

When I lived in Rhode Island I'd listen to both David and Larry Glick. Larry Glick made me laugh and David made me think.

Prayers for David.

In the winter, when the sun goes down sooner, he could be heard in 48 states on the clear channel WBZ radio, 1030 AM. He has been on 7:00 to 10:00 ET. When I was camping in Montana I could tune him in on my radio and hear the Boston sports scores.

I will miss him because he always was a real person on the other side of the radio. One knew he was true to his thinking and his words. He respected others, had conversations and debates as part of his program.

I couldn't agree more. A class act all the way. I grew up in the Boston area and listened to him regularly as a teen. He is one of the biggest reasons that a kid from MA became a conservative. When he passes, it will be like losing a family member. God bless David. May He ease your pain and give you the knowledge that you touched many lives in a very positive way. You will be missed.

10-years ago I talked to David, a mere skeleton of a man, fighting back from death by full-blown AIDS.

How did he contract AIDS ?

He is gay, I assume that is how he contracted it. Although, it would be ironic if there was another reason.

The fact that he has HIV led to his cancer. The kind he had is usually found in peopel with extremely depressed immune systems - HIV patients and the very old: 80's and 90's.

Okay, so he contracted a dangerous disease having unnatural homosexual relations. We don't know how many other people contracted the disease due to him. I don't see him as a hero.

I just received a call from a friend who told me that another good friend had just died. He was a WW 11 vet. We had not been out to see him in a few months. His wife is not in the best of health either. What will she do without him? He was on the way to the doctor and had a heart attack. He was suffering from congestive heart failure. We will miss him.

There are people who disapprove of the homosexual lifestyle (me
included). There are people who hate homosexuals they have never even met. The latter group is composed of sick, hadrhearted individuals.
