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 dies suddenly at age 42 and they immediately, without benefit of an autopsy, release a statement that it was “natural causes”? Then later we hear of “heart problems”. Nothing to see here, move along.

It was surely just a coincidence that he was set to release a bombshell about the usurper in the White House.

Wow, they are playing Andrew talking from yesterday on a local station. He sounded feisty as hell.

He did not sound like a sick man.

This freaks me out.

May God Comfort His Loved ones.
Rest In Peace, Andrew.

This is a sad day for conservatives.
I am grateful we had him ..even for too short a time.

O’Reilly knows the SOROS threats are real. They all do. Glenn Beck left Fox because of it. The first threats were about the eligibility issue, in October of 2008. Breitbart’s death on the same day as the Cold Case Posse is reporting on Obama’s eligibility situation will not be lost on O’Reilly or any of the other on-air personalities, who were all threatened at least once before the 2008 election and once after the election.

Interesting to hear Rush today. He must have loosened his own collar a few times this morning...

I met Andrew once, very nice and a gentleman.
Rest In Peace Andrew.

Prayers for your beloved family.

“I used to be depressed, then angry, then truly fearful, terrorized, and then numb. But, last night, it hit me in the early morning. 0bama now creeps me out, like the smell of putrificaion or decaying bodies. He and the cabal’s evil, yes, but they’re not dead inside; they’re rotting, and it’s flat out hazmat creepy.”


Wow, who is that quote from? Is that your words, or quoting from Breitbart?


Just a few scriptures to remind myself that our struggle truly is not against flesh and blood, but against a very powerful enemy in the spiritual world who works through lies, deception and through those who belong to him. But even through that, believers are not to fear.

6 Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them. 7 Only be strong and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go. 8 This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:6-9 ESV

10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Ephesians 6:10-17 NIV

When I think how this man cut off over 500 billion in slush funds used by ACCORN I am very suspect. The money involved flowed to many Unions,Non-Profits and in the end the Dem party. Very few have caused so much damage to a very dark and deep structure.

Makes me wonder when he changed the ending of his book so that it reads more like an obituary.

When he said “I’ve got video from his college days...” he may have sealed his death warrant. Everything about this raises suspicion to a whole new level.

I’m also wondering what he was doing just taking a walk after midnight in L.A.
I know Brentwood is a good area, but who walks that late at night?

Let’s put it this way. If you wanted something bad to happen to breitbart and you know he walks alone around the neighborhood at night...

RIP Breitbart, Your exposure of the Leftist Acorn movement and the hypocrisies of the radical left will never be forgotten. Thank You Andrew!
