   Correct and well said, Flyover.

   Yet again, it’s that opposite-worldview thing.

   Conservatives are most certainly far from perfect; we all of us are sinners.

   However, the America-destroyers/America-haters/socialists/statists/collectivists/communists are clearly much, much worse.

   What rankles MSD about Mr. Breitbart’s comments about “Teddy” Kennedy is likely their accuracy….

   Gosh, some of you people are sick — apparently Brietbart had a history of heart problems, which I knew nothing about. some of you are joking about this — you are sick, just like the Lefties saying they’re happy he died. He was an honorable, honest man. Get a life, people. And grow up. (I never wrote any negative comments or made jokes when Teddy Kennedy died.) If you’re serious about life, you should be serious about death, and tragedy, which this is.

   Andrew Breitbart lived righteously for more years than most of us will be able to claim. I will miss him for the obvious reasons. I only hope that my contribution to America can be measured in relationship to his as worthy. He is AND was a serious patriot. God bless America and God bless Andrew Breitbart.

    Noonan can’t always be right. Look at her choice in a husband. The “ACTUAL” meaning is that of a self-rightous “former” bigot had an epiphany?

    Yes, she can be considered Hispanic, since her mother’s maiden name is Perez. Remember, the Philipines were a Spanish colony until 1898, and there was plenty of mixed marriages between Philipinos and Spanish peoples. So our gracious hostess has the best of all worlds: an American of Asian and Hispanic roots.

    Perhaps they are views they’ve always held, and later in life they get the courage to be honest about it…or, more than likely, they just lose their ability to reason or to derive reason by logical deduction.

    Obama: “He Had It Coming”

    That’s what the ‘president’ said about the death of Colonel Kadaffi. That’s how the ‘president’ thinks.

    The old canard that “the truth comes out eventually” is incorrect. The truth is often like dried-up toothpaste. To make it come out you have to squeeze really hard.

    Several drugs are known to produce lethal heart-attack-like symptoms. A few of these are hard to detect in a post mortem examination unless there is a concerted effort to find them. After death some tissues remain alive for hours or longer. These drugs tend to get metabolized after death. There appear to be a few drugs in this category that either are not detectable or can only be found by an intense hunt for traces of that specific drug. The pathology report should detail the methods used to detect these specific drugs.

    Walking alone late at night outside his house Breitbart went from a casual walk to sudden cardiac arrest and death within a few minutes. Very few heart attacks happen this way. In the Breitbart case the media are already proclaiming this is an open-shut case of death by natural causes. I’m sure there are some pharmacologists, toxicologists, and forensic scientists who are bemused to hear reporters speak with such certainty.

    It is unprofessional for any physician to declare that the cause of death was ‘natural causes’ until an autopsy and pathology report are completed.

    I have not proved there was a clandestine operation against Breitbart but this case is worth careful investigation.

    I think that Andrew Breitbart would say that the mission is always more important than the man.

    I appreciate what Andrew Breitbart did, and the enormous difference that he made. I am still in shock about this loss. And, at the same time, I believe that Andrew would want us to keep our focus on the mission and not on him.

    The mission is the mission of truth.

    What was one of Andrew Breitbart’s final interviews (if not THE final interview of his career)?

    It was an interview of Sheriff Joe Arpaio on February 29th, the day before Sheriff Arpaio’s March 1st news conference with members of his “Cold Case Posse”.

    Andrew Breitbart was interested in the information that sheriff Joe Arpaio shared yesterday. And I think that Andrew would want that information broadcast as far and wide as possible.

    A fraudulent electronic “document” was posted on the White House web site, and claimed to be legitimate by the President of the United States.

    This is bigger than Watergate.

    Yet so far, Michelle Malkin, Ed Morrissey, and Allahpundit have completely ignored it.

    Honestly, is that what Andrew Breitbart would have wanted?

    Sean Hannity said on his radio show Thursday that Andrew Breitbart was never ashamed to say he was a proud conservative.

    That’s one way to continue his legacy, too. Don’t be afraid to stand up and say you’re a conservative if you are. It’s easy to do the popular thing (see: ObamaFest 2008) but it takes real guts to be true to your principles and stand by them (see: Tebowmania 2011 and Andrew Breitbart).

    I know which folks I’d prefer to emulate, given the above examples, and I’m not going to be afraid to EVER say I’m a conservative. Ever.

    Thanks, Andrew.

    Given his importance and the unusual circumstances surrounding his death, a complete forensic toxicology work-up is mandatory. This is the perfect case to consider for a murder conspiracy. It ain’t going away until that is resolved. I would really be interested in chronicling any outside contacts with the LA Coroner’s office. Anyone work for the NSA?

    I will say that my brother and father both died of a sudden CI. Snap of the fingers death. It happens more often than you think. Davey Jones likely died the same way.

    Ed scoffed at the investigators not having contacted the Hawaii DHS for the original documents. But, the investigators looked at what was available to them, and specifically say that the next steps involve getting court appointed forensic examiners to be given access to the original documents and microfilms.

    Ed… is part of the problem. He, Michelle, and others need to find their inner Breitbart.

    My wife is also Filipino and she has a Spanish maiden name, since the Philippines were also conquered by Spain. Now she doesn’t think of herself as Hispanic. But I am wondering if she is just as much as someone may be from Mexico. I think we have an overlap between Asian and Hispanic.

    I am stunned at Breitbart’s death. M:y first thought was assassination due to the tapes he was going to release to doom Obama’s reelection.

    Spacey….that line was in one of Obama’s first speeches. I can’t remember if it was at the Brandenburg Gate or if it was a State of the Union address. I thought…he’s quoting Yeats? Then I thought, oh, yeah, it’s from “The Second Coming”…
    a subliminal reference to him being the Messiah. Or it may have been a hidden message to his minions/co-conspiritors, etc. Meaning…”it won’t be long now…”

    We talked about the renewed vigor with which the conservative movement was fighting back against Alinskyite tactics — especially the race card.

    That’s a key weapon of the Left — to wrongly call others racists. Race-baiting. They should be called out on it just as much as actual racism, the latter which IMHO is now much less prevalent than the former! These days, race-baiting is the more dangerous and toxic of the two. Racism is dead and dying. Race-baiting is alive and well, and in its ascendency. And we must fight it where we find it. Fighting racism is the last war. The current war is to fight race-baiting, where the Left are the race-baiters like Bull Connor was a racist 50 years ago. If they could only see the evil they’ve become.
