Andrew Breitbart dead at 43

Andrew Breitbart dead at 43
Posting this here because I think his ‘journalistic’ antics and abhorrent lack of integrity leaves a legacy that deserves pitting. I would rather have seen him take his money and retire than die, but I strongly believe the world (no hyperbole intended) is a lot better off without him. I can only hope the rotten fruit he succoured withers away into obscurity.

(I also hope that this isn’t some stunt to see the (invented) liberal media’s reaction.)

The articles seem very mum on cause of death. Fox News calls it “unexpectedly from natural causes”. How can someone die from natural causes at 43?

I have $5 on “auto-erotic asphyxiation gone wrong”.

He collapsed outside while walking near his house. Someone saw him fall and called the paramedics.

Heart attack is my guess. Although leahcim’s suggestion would be nice.

I’m waiting to see which misleading and out-of-context remarks they carve as his epitaph.

BTW, anyone demanding a bit of respect-for-the-newly-dead here should review the things Breitbart wrote after Ted Kennedy’s passing before you stroke a single key.

Heart disease, I’m guessing. He was a chain smoker and a heavy drinker, IIRC.

Breitbart was an asshole, but not the Falwell kind of asshole who deserved to die. I hope he finds death more restful than life.

Let the “Obama hit squad” conspiracy theories begin!

Polonium poisoning? Blowgun mini-dart? Satellite death ray? Nano-killbots?

Now of course is when the various religious groups will all claim that he was struck down by God for his blasphemies and support of the wrong side of politics, right?

Right?
Bueller?

You left out “Kenyan Muslim atheist satanic voodoo rite.”

Poor Jimmy O’Keefe. He was probably THIS close to making things right with the man and being readmitted to the fold. Why do things like this have to happen to him?

Atheist rites are very pragmatic – there’s no robes or mumbo-jumbo. You just type up the curse in your favorite word processor, laser-print it, and have it notarized.

The world is a slightly better place today.

It turns out being completely full of shit is fatal.

To obvious. Obama had a séance and commanded Ted’s ghost to get him.

Oh well. I’m still keeping open my auto-erotic asphyxiation bet on Glenn Beck for when his time comes, though. :slight_smile:

Wow, he certainly had no problem shitting on fresh graves. They might do well to install a toilet paper dispenser and magazine rack on his plot.

Interesting watching the various lefty groups and commentators twist themselves trying to say something nice about him (in a couple hours I’m sure most will stop trying).

“We always respected his dedication to his beliefs” and such nonsense.

I have never had any problem with his beliefs (though I disagreed with them) or his level of dedication. It is the manner in which he exhibited his dedicated pursuit of his beliefs that made him a reprehensible person.

I’m not glad he’s dead. I wouldn’t have wished him dead. It is a horrible thing for his his friends and family.

But I am glad for the side effect that he will no longer be part of the conversation because he did his very best to taint that conversation through his simple participation.

Will be interesting to see what level of conspiracy talk there is. After all, if Putin’s loudest internet critic, 43-year-old and not obviously unhealthy, suddenly died we’d all assume a reasonably good chance he’d been taken out.

TheFreepers are WAAAAY ahead of you.

I am betting “unexpectedly from natural causes” is some sort of code phrase for “meth overdose while having sex with his illegal immigrant rent-boy after supporting abortions by buying Girl Scout cookies”.
