In Memoriam: Andrew Breitbart (1969-2012)
Breibart.com ^ | 3/1/12 | Larry Solov

Posted on 03/01/2012 6:00:33 AM PST by ImJustAnotherOkie

Andrew passed away unexpectedly from natural causes shortly after midnight this morning in Los Angeles.

We have lost a husband, a father, a son, a brother, a dear friend, a patriot and a happy warrior.

Andrew lived boldly, so that we more timid souls would dare to live freely and fully, and fight for the fragile liberty he showed us how to love.

Andrew recently wrote a new conclusion to his book, Righteous Indignation:

I love my job. I love fighting for what I believe in. I love having fun while doing it. I love reporting stories that the Complex refuses to report. I love fighting back, I love finding allies, and—famously—I enjoy making enemies.

Three years ago, I was mostly a behind-the-scenes guy who linked to stuff on a very popular website. I always wondered what it would be like to enter the public realm to fight for what I believe in. I’ve lost friends, perhaps dozens. But I’ve gained hundreds, thousands—who knows?—of allies. At the end of the day, I can look at myself in the mirror, and I sleep very well at night.

He retweeted this approximately 9 hours ago along with other personal tweets. This is from his official verified Twitter page.

Greg Gutfeld said on Fox this morning that he had been warning Andrew about his health and that he should take better care of himself...

Just sounds waaaayyyyy too convenient for the Left. I'll bet they're having a party over at DU (and there's no way I'm gonna check).

I feel so like you. I had a much needed day off today and I am sitting here relaxing, planning what to cook for dinner, since I have been working so much and have neglected the family a little bit.

Then this. I truly feel sick. But now I am going to go get dressed and get off the computer and turn off the TV and figure out exactly what I am going to do to honor Andrew.

I will still cook dinner but I feel so much political energy right now and I will honor Andrew and continue the fight to the truth.

Andrew collapsed last night after leaving a restaurant.

Rope off the restaurant and go over it with a fine tooth comb.

Wow, it sounds like he had an aneurysm to me. The sudden, silent killer. Prayers to his family. RIP Andrew.

Shocking. RIP Andy, we will miss you, and we know that, wherever you are now, you’ll be cheering us on.

I am NOT believing this for a minute (the ‘natural causes’ part)

If they used the old shellfish toxin trick on Breitbart, then look for an attack on Sheriff Joe next.

I believe many of us are suspicious. Hopefully, AB made a copy or two, one left in the care of his wife.

...who now has four fatherless children to tend for and protect.

We'll NEVER see those "tapes".

I believe this is the real story. Hannity was a very close friend of Breitbart and said on Fox that he knew Andrew had heart problems a year ago.

Very high energy people who can not sleep beyond five hours a night = hormonal changes, high blood pressure, appetite disturbance etc. It could have been anything, really. RIP

So the thought strikes me that Sheriff Arpaio in AZ is supposed to have a news conference today at 1pm Mountain Time about Barry’s eligibility and there may be ‘shock’ in the report...

Coincidence?

She is easy on the eyes as well, she might be a great torch bearer.

Her husband Chris agrees.

Sudden heart attacks do happen, even in the most healthy. This is not a conspiracy theory, it is the reality of being human.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I’ll never be convinced he wasn’t murdered.

That's a sound, logical position.
