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.

I am in shock! AB was a young man and one of our best and strongest voices. Prayers up!

No way. Nothing on Breitbart or his friend Drudge’s web site.

Natural causes? Nobody has died in the US from “natural causes” since the 1950’s, when that was no longer accepted on death certificates. I’m curious as to “what” natural cause was the cause of his death.

I always wonder why at least ONE of the barbara boxers or barney franks of the world don’t just die early, like happens occasionally to normal people.

I can't find anything about it on any other websites yet, so I'm calling suspicious, until confirmation.

If it's true it's mighty Ironic that he was about to drop a huge bomb regarding Obama's college days....

He is the one voice conservatives could least afford to lose right now. I am shocked and horrified.

I don’t understand how a 42 year old can die of natural causes. This is horrible.

Mr. Breitbart was a tremendous force for good and a beacon of TRUTH and LIGHT in the dark days in which we live. His legacy and contributions to a free and honest media will live on, but he will be missed. Our condolences to the Breitbart family, may the God of all comfort, greatly comfort you in your time of loss.
