“I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love;
The love that asks no question,
the love that stands the test,
That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
I heard my country calling, away across the sea,
Across the waste of waters she calls and calls to me.
Her sword is girded at her side, her helmet on her head,
And round her feet are lying, the dying and the dead.
I hear the noise of battle, the thunder of her guns,
I haste to thee my mother, a son among thy sons.
And there’s another country, I’ve heard of long ago,
Most dear to them that love her,
most great to them that know;
We may not count her armies, we may not see her King;
Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
And soul by soul and silently, her shining bounds increase,
And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace.”
- I Vow to Thee My Country, Sir Cecil Spring-Rice
RIP Andrew Breitbart, a son among American sons
God Bless Andrew and all my best to his family.
He will be missed and his work will continue.
RIP Andrew Breitbart.
If it really was a professional job the autopsy won’t reveal anything.

I hate to believe it too - but this is all too weird for me.
I've been wondering if Fort Sumpter has just been fired upon.
God Bless Andrew!!!
Back home now. Poured a glass of wine and now may allow my tears to flow.
I still cannot get over it. Maybe, just maybe, he had to fake his own death to save his family?
Maybe, just maybe, once the evil one is out of office in 2012, he will come out? Maybe, just maybe, he’ll be working behind the scenes with his most trusted people to get the tapes out?
Maybe....just maybe.
I’m so sorry to hear that. We lost a good, conservative warrior today. It’s hard to understand why God takes a good man so young, but he has his reasons. I’d like to extend my condolences to his wife and four children. It will most certainly be the hardest on them. Rest with God, Andrew.
Lord our God, rest, we beseech Thee, Thy servant Andrew with the saints, and comfort his family.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
I agree absolutely. There is a definite need for an autopsy.
I believe the “midnight” was pacific time. There’s probably confusion between the time zones people were referring to.
Weird day.
Andrew Breitbart is silenced. Sheriff Joe reveals the birth certificate is an obvious forgery. And Rush gets a bomb scare.
The Rush one is interesting as maybe more credible threats had been recently made to his security team and they were on high alert.
Weirder and weirder.
Go over on craigslist world politics. The lefties are dancing around like an evil seance, celebrating his death and spewing out vile and despicable hatred towards the man.
A very sad day. RIP Andrew and my thoughts and prayers go out to his wife, children, friends and family. It’s up to us to carry on the fight for him.
They are despicable over there... average age 14-15? Do they think Andrew was there only adversary?

Oh, how awful. Well... my cousin died at 43 of a heart attack, but they didn't call it "natural causes," they called it a heart attack. I guess it's a terminology issue, but geez. This is still just a shock. It's 12 hours since I heard it and I'm still kind of dazed.
Requiem aeternam dona ei, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei. Requiescat in pace. Amen.
Indeed. I am joined in prayer for Andrew’s family and loved ones.
