I don’t know what is more offensive, the prices or them calling a 20 oz. steak, a steak for two.

"Boy. The Brentwood isn’t shy about overpricing for their food."

Meh. We pay prices like that in local pubs. Of course, our scenery around here is much more spectacular...

Drank for 2 hours at the bar. Probably walked to and from the bar to avoid a DUI.

Beg pardon.
The article says he sipped a glass or two of wine while engaged in a chat with the gentleman.
It also makes note that the place was within comfortable walking distance to his home.
IMO, your comment is very misleading and insulting to Mr. Breitbart.
If you can't say nothing good.....well you know the rest.

What article did you read?

Here’s the quote:

“Sando says the duo quickly struck up a conversation that would last a little less than two hours.”

Clearly Breitbart sat the the bar next to Sando and spoke with several at the bar. What’s your beef? Drinking for 2 hours is not unusual.

I work right down the street. Went to Marymount Catholic Girl’s school just blocks away for most of my childhood. I grew up in the area and know Brentwood and the Brentwood establishment well.

You are wildly off base!

That isn’t what I am talking about. When someone wants to get you, they could do so in your own backyard.

Bad stuff doesn’t always happen in honky tonks.

I have no proof of anything, but I know many people threatened Breitbart daily.

Don’t people who have heart conditions normally take medication to control it? When people die of heart attacks, don’t the announcements of their deaths normally include the specific cause rather than the evasive term ‘’natural causes’’?

It’s easier for me to believe that the Reichstag fire in 1933 Germany was caused by Mrs. O’Leary’s cow than that a relatively young man who less than a month before had announced he was about to release explosive tapes featuring Barack Obama died of natural causes, or a heart attack, or anything less than foul play.

If it was an innocent heart attack, of course the tapes will still be released soon, as Andrew Breitbart would have wanted. We’ll see.

When I heard about this, my first thought was to wonder if someone with an umbrella walked by him on his way home.

I’m still wondering.

I hear ya. And now the "bomb scare" at Rushs' house.
My honest opinion about Andy is that it was natural causes. But hey...'Things that make ya go...Hmmmmm'

Why? Numerous people close to Breitbart said today he had a bad ticker.

Not saying this is what caused his death but drinking alcohol can raise the Blood Pressure and if someone is already suffering from hypertension can possibly cause heart attack or stroke. Please check if you have high BP and get it under control. Its called ‘the silent killer’ for good reason.

The friendly debate continued in the bar as Breitbart sipped red wine

There goes that theory on red wine...

Those are typical prices at nice restaurants in big cities.

What I’d like to know is did anyone see him during the minutes preceding his collapse, and did they see any pedestrians or vehicles in the area at the time.

It depends on the type of heart condition. Many young people have died from sudden cardiac arrest because of heart rhythm problems caused by heart enlargement. However, if such a condition was known he should have had an implanted defibrillator. Medication can help, but not everyone can tolerate it or they forget to take it.

OTOH, if I'm in the Chicago mob and want to get rid of someone, I'd research their medical condition.

“a relatively young man who less than a month before had announced he was about to release explosive tapes featuring Barack Obama”

Fatal heart attacks in 42 year old men is less than 1% probability.

The Breitbart connection here seems to be that Rush got nervous today and took no chances when he had a suspicion. Why was he nervous if he believed Breitbart died of natural causes? This bomb scare is not necessarily a coincidence, but indicates that Rush was either paranoid or has honest reason to believe the Breitbart death was not caused by natural causes.
