Anthony Bourdain—What the Media Eulogies Left Out
townhall.com ^ | 6/16/2018 | Humberto Fontova

Posted on 06/16/2018 8:07:41 AM PDT by rktman

In brief, Antony Bourdain wore his “anti-corporate hipness” on his shirtsleeve, always smirking and snarking that “evil corporations” and “crass commercialism” repelled him.

But he gleefully signed on as a shameless tourism agent for the Castro-Family-and-Military Crony-Crime Syndicate, a thieving, murdering criminal-corporate empire that makes the Mafia look like Boy Scouts of America.

“I will never eat in his (Donald Trump’s) restaurant. I have utter contempt for him, utter and complete contempt… I’m not going. I’m not going.” (Anthony Bourdain, Eater.)

Now now Humberto. Speaking ill of the deceased? Yeah, I gotta agree about his snarky attitude and, he sure didn't seem to mind taking big bucks from those greedy bastards did he? Sorry his selfish act is causing his family pain.

His wife was cheating on him, a poparrazi filmed her doing it.

ZERO lib publications mention that.

I never had much use for this limousine liberal.

Never saw the attraction some had for him.

I cannot abide snarky smart asses, anyway...and he had that in spades.

I wish him no ill...may he RIP, but as he himself would say...Xinh loy, which is the snark VN for "sorry about that".

You hated yourself so much you killed yourself, so...no one to blame but yourself.

Asia Argento wasn’t his wife.

My favorite Bourdain moment was when he was in Lebanon and fighting broke out, and he had to be saved the USN and Marines. And EVEN THEN he couldn’t completely keep the contempt out of his mouth for the military.
An utter and complete asshat.

I think that was just his current fling not his wife.

I liked him even if he was a conflicted butthead.

His wife was cheating on him, a poparrazi filmed her doing it. ZERO lib publications mention that. Yep, I noticed that too. Seems she had also posted photos of herself and another man out on the town.

Poor old Tony.
He died of rich liberal guilt.

Hey Pisano, enjoy the entire tapestry of life.

This Bourdain Guy was an elitist. Before Paula Deen was removed from TV for a supposed racism, Bourdain was trashing her for her homespun cooking and country ways.

I had no use for him.

Bourdain is a French name. Don’t paint us Goombas with being like Bourdain

Bourdain was a pompous democRAT fool who fancied himself as better than the rest of us.

To be honest, I don’t shed any tears for Bourdain because I rarely ever thought of him while he was among the living.

And to your point...he was a selfish prick to the very end.

No disrespect to the guy....but why do we have to hear about his death over the thousands of family members, friends, etc who also died the same day?

Why is his life story more important than those?

I liked watching Bourdain’s Shows, both the earlier Travel Channel ones and the recent CNN ones. His way of talking and his mannerisms mirrored a Friend of mine who recently passed away. I found the similarities uncanny.

That being said, I marveled how Bourdain was loved by Liberal types, even after he slaughtered two Pigs on Camera, one using a Pistol and the other being stabbed to death. (The episode where a Lamb (or Goat) was slaughtered with a Knife never showed the gruesome details, just the Feast afterwards)

The same folks who had no issue with Bourdain’s participation in Animal Slaughter were the same ones who were repulsed by watching Sarah Palin and her Family out Hunting on her short lived Outdoor Show.
