Breitbart Drops Dead - The Orange Mane

Rohirrim · 03-01-2012, 10:51 AM

That's a shame. Just last week he was screaming a drunken tirade at Occupy protesters calling them "Rapists" and "Murderers." Just goes to show you. You never know how much time you have left.

Stay classy liberals...

W*GS · 03-01-2012, 12:08 PM

(Breitbart's father-in-law was Orson Bean. Haven't heard that name in quite some time!)

He is in a better place and now, so are we.

As somebody else said, "You should speak good of the dead. He's dead. Good."

Andrew Breitbart's Dinner With Bill Ayers

Judging from the comments on Gothamist's post on the death of Andrew Breitbart, people are making exception to the adage to not speak ill of the dead.

While you're doing that, we want to let you know of a dinner Breitbart recently had with Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn at their Hyde Park residence Super Bowl Sunday. Conservative pundit Tucker Carlson, editor-in-chief of The Daily Caller, won a December online auction for a dinner party with the couple. Carlson donated $2,500 to the Illinois Humanities Council for the chance to dine with them.

Carlson used the dinner party as an opportunity to solicit questions from his readers to ask Ayers and even posted the menu of the dinner.

Carlson also brought along Breitbart. (For what you may think of the man, give him this much credit: he was willing to meet and argue with people who were his ideological opposites. He can't get much further opposite than Ayers and Dohrn.)

In the video below from Mediaite, Breitbart calls Ayers "a sociopath," but raved about his hosting skills and cooking.

"It's intoxicating," Breitbart said. "This is one of the ways they're able to indoctrinate young impressionable people."

Yes, readers, being a good host and knowing how to prepare an amazing dinner is un-American. Let the conspiracy theories about how the dinner party may have slowly poisoned Breitbart commence.

Breitbart invokes "The Jerry Falwell Exception." People who are dispicable, hateful pieces of trash during their life invite and deserve the scorn they receive in death.

BroncoLifer · 03-01-2012, 02:17 PM

Even in death, Breitbart continues to expose the Left. RIP and well done, Andrew.

It's a strange phenomenon to me. I understand that the guy wasn't very pleasant. But I can't imagine a situation where I would celebrate someone with a different political ideology's death.

I truly hate extreme politics in this country. People have no common sense.

peacepipe · 03-01-2012, 03:31 PM

he was a pathological liar. good riddance to bad rubbish.

C'mon, Dom...you know better than that. It's not merely that he had a "different political ideology." It's that he was a dispicable, hateful individual who intentionally tried to goad people and even ruin lives. If George Will dropped dead tomorrow, he would get plenty of sympathy and well wishes, because he's a gentleman and not a pathological liar. You reap what you sow.

Oh, I understand the logic of disliking him - maybe even hating him. I guess I am a moderate Republican. But I don't like people like that, on either side of the political fence.

I just can't personally go that far. I have felt indifferent about some people, when they died. I totally felt that way about Falwell, since someone mentioned him. I didn't feel the world was a worse place when he died - his overall contribution was, IMO, a net negative. I just felt indifferent - that was all I could muster.

I truly hate the political climate in this country. I don't care who started it (and I don't really think anyone could accurately decide who started it). I just think it's so counter-productive. Breitbart was representative of that; and some of the reactions to his death are also representative. It can't go on. It's not sustainable. At some point, cooler heads are going to have to prevail.

Rohirrim · 03-01-2012, 06:00 PM

In the hours immediately following Senator Ted Kennedy's death, Breitbart called Kennedy a "villain", a "duplicitous bastard", a "prick" and "a special pile of human excrement." (Wiki)

You reap what you sow.

Breitbart was right down there with Limbaugh and Coulter; People who make their livings by spreading hate - modern, political pimps.

And the entire Republican Party goes, "Gee. We're really opposed to this kind of rhetoric..." wink, wink.

Rohirrim · 03-01-2012, 06:08 PM

Did you hear the latest Limbaugh witticism?

Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh, already under fire from Democrats over his language in discussing a Georgetown University law student who testified about contraception, ratcheted up his rhetoric on Thursday, saying the student should post an online sex video if taxpayers are forced to pay for contraception.

Limbaugh on Wednesday had referred to student Sandra Fluke as a “slut” for supporting a requirement that health insurance cover contraception. On his radio show Thursday, Limbaugh went a little further:

"So Miss Fluke, and the rest of you Feminazis, here's the deal. If we are going to pay for your contraceptives, and thus pay for you to have sex. We want something for it. We want you post the videos online so we can all watch."

http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/20...ine-sex-videos

He ended his show lamenting the death of Breitbart and said we need a hundred, no a thousand more like him.

Pretty fair statements about a man who left a woman to drown in the back seat of his car and then used his family connections to avoid responsibility. Or maybe being a liberal entitled him a pass?

Well, he pretty much just described about 100 Senators and about 435 members of the House of Representatives, from what I can tell.

Duplicitous? Please. Welcome to Washington.

Tombstone RJ · 03-01-2012, 07:45 PM

I guess I'm the only one who never heard of the guy? Funny how the librals know him real well. He must have said a few things that got them mad.

I've heard this guy has some less-than-flattering stuff on BO. I wonder if BO called SEAL team 6 to take him out...

Rohirrim · 03-01-2012, 07:47 PM

So no whining when he gets the same treatment he dished out. **** him. May he rot in hell.
