Will show him infinitely more respect than he showed the dead in the past and just say that it's a shame that four kids lost a father.

I certainly feel bad for the family. Losing a father is a hard thing.

and the whackjobs, are on the loose.

Twitter is apparently a buzz, with Obama conspiracy theories.

although i only briefly scanned the list from post #4, there was at least one moderately famous person among the loons, Mancow Muller. DJ, friend of Hulk Hogan, and, apparently, moron.

he'd be better off with a good lawyer, considering the Grand Jury investigations into his abuse of power, his racial profiling, and his failure to give a crap about sex crimes.

If true, surely his colleagues are clued in. And in that case, what pathetically spineless excuses for journalists he must have chosen to be his colleagues, huh?

I'm just saying that I don't see any of his journalistic associates or anyone in his employ challenging the report of natural causes to even suggest at what you say is 100% for sure.

nope. that wasn't one of them.

the rest, however, are.

America's self-proclaimed toughest sheriff finds himself entangled these days in his own thorny legal troubles: a federal grand jury probe over alleged abuse of power, Justice Department accusations of racial profiling and revelations that his department didn't adequately investigate hundreds of Arizona sex-crime cases.

The question one has to ask is,

If Breibart had such damaging videos of Obama, why wait to release them? What's the point of making a big announcement about them at CPAC and sitting on them? You either have damaging videos or you don't. Plus, are we to believe that only Breibart has access to these videos in case of his death, a not unlikely occurrence given his history of heart problems?

To announce that Breitbart was 100% for sure assassinated is assinine, but not suprising given the source. Even Michael Savage, prone to some of the most outrageous public statements ever uttered, wouldn't make a fool of himself by making such an absolutist statement.

The more I think about it, if Breibart was assassinated, it's much more likely it was carried out by a right wing hit squad than an Obama hit squad.

Think about it. The videos will be released whether Breitbart is alive or not. Who stands to gain from the publicity of Breitbart's death and the resulting questions surrounding the mysterious circumstances? Certainly not Obama. The conspiracy spotlight is immediately shined on Obama; the wild allegations that the President is responsible only makes the ultimate release of these videos a much bigger media event. Who gains? The story is already all over the (I won't say conservative and insult the actual meaning of the word, made a mockery by those who claim to subscribe to conservative principals)rabid right media.

Tactics like these don't need facts in order for them to get legs. All a Michael Savage has to do is plant the seed, and suddenly the story has gone viral. There's absolutely no benefit for Obama to bring attention to these videos by having Breitbart killed, but there's massive benefit for Obama's enemies.

It's far more likely that his fellow conservatives murdered him to bring credibility or attention to whatever theatrical production he'd thrown together this time. They have far more to gain.

Yeah I just presumed that B linking Michael Savage and WND (which was apparently the closest thing he could find to colleagues or people in the employ of Andrew Breitbart) saying:
It’s entirely plausible... that Breitbart simply collapsed of a heart attack because of overwork and a reported history of health problems.
- and calling the question of an assassination "crazy" - is a full and unambiguous concession of the points made in my previous posts.

If he says 100% assassinated, I'm sure he can back it up with compelling evidence. Give him some credit.

"We have the videos. This election he is going to be vetted."

100% for sure assassinated.


for sure.

Breitbart's "bombshell" video falls flat

and the video was actually aired by PBS - PBS! - four years ago!


But PBS, which aired the footage as part of a 2008 election special, noted "there's nothing new about the clip or Obama's role in the controversy at Harvard Law School."

Fox News contributor Juan Williams said on the show that he was disappointed by Breitbart's promised bombshell.

"I must say, I thought this was going to be so much more," said Williams. "I thought this was going to be a smoking gun... But it really didn't come to much."

wonder why the above poster didn't comment on the Breitbart video, instead choosing to focus on something totally unrelated.



"We have the videos. This election he is going to be vetted."

100% for sure assassinated.

Come on now you guys. He wouldn't say that he was 100% sure unless he absolutely believed it to be true. And, to be that sure, he obviously has some evidence to back it up. He will give us that info shortly.....I'm 100% sure.
