I'll start. Everytime I saw you on TV, whenever I picked up your book for a quick reread of a chapter, I drew strength from your convictions and your resolve. I know you are in a better place now, but, I will still miss you. God speed fine lady.

why did I love her? three words: "HELL TO PAY"
To: Bob J
I loved Barbara in my own way.
She was bright and a true American patriot, I already miss her.
She was one of the few people I know (by TV), who were slain today.
To: Bob J
Barbara Olson was a tough and scrappy conservative. She set an example of activism that the rest of us can look to.
To: Bob J
I loved knowing that a woman like Barbara Olson was on our side. She was always gracious, classy and unflappable. No matter how much she was provoked by vicious and amoral people who used the law to promote illegality, like Mark Geragos, she always remained poised and made her points with a look of beautitude.
She was an enormously special woman and one who will have my gratitude and admiration forever.

"I've been blubbering for fifteen minutes."You're not the only one, believe me. And I know I'm not the only one who would have gladly taken her place on that flight.

i watched Barbara on foxnews.
the things that made her smile made me smile.
great lady. she will be missed.
To: Bob J
Barbara was lovely, articulate, intelligent, and obviously a wonderful human being. She did so much to promote our noble cause. God rest her soul.
To: Bob J
I never saw her on TV, I'm not sure if I recall reading anything she wrote, but from what I read of what she did today, calling her husband and passing information along, she was a hero, and I wish I could have had the honor of knowing her.
From what others have said, she was sharp and quick-witted. Based on her conduct today, I have no doubt that she had those. I only pray that what information she passed on to her husband helps us trck these folks down and deal with them with the full power and rage we can muster.
I did not know her well enough to love her until I heard of her actions today. Sadly, I learned enough to love her too late to be able to tell her.

Barbara died as she lived - trying to expose the crime, telling the world, and even in death making a difference. As in life, she did in death; she did not shut up and take it, but instead shouted out what was happening in an effort to change the course of events.
To: Bob J
Barbara, we all feel we know you and in a way we do........your courage is an inspiration to every American. Thank you for being a real American to the very end.
To: Bob J
Barbara, I saw you over the weekend take fire from some really nasty callers on C-SPAN. You took their barbs with class, and didn't fire back.
You replied to me more than once on FR. It was an honor to "know" you. Rest in peace, dear lady. Comfort to your family.

Barbara, God has you now. You are a beautiful soul, an intelligent and fine woman. You will be sorely missed.
To: Bob J
What a patriot Barbara Olsen was and is. I LOVED hearing her commentary. I will miss deeply, her intelligent comments that put the left in their place. God Bless her and those that she leaves behind.
To: Bob J
Rest In Peace, Mrs. Olson.

Just two or three nights ago I was "busying around" and thought I heard her voice on Fox News. I stopped to listen but when it wasn't her, I went back to what I was doing, disappointed.
What she said was always worth taking time to listen to. She was one of those "friends" I never officially met. I'll miss her.

I appreciated Barbara Olson because she was so intelligent and well-spoken. She represented the conservatives so well, she always made me proud. Barbara said the things that I wanted to say. She always kept her cool and presented her (our) arguments calmly and thoroughly without losing her temper or becoming hysterical like the liberal "RATS" always did. Barbara was a lady through and through; but she had more courage to speak the truth than most of our conservative men ever dreamed of having. She will be greatly missed by our party and our country.
I thank God that she was able to show her true courage and unselfishness even in the moments right before her death. She and her family will be in my prayers.
