QuoteAndrew Breitbart, a well-known conservative blogger, has died, his attorney confirmed Thursday. He was 43.
Breitbart was also known as a taking head on conservative television shows as well as the right-hand man to Matt Drudge of Drudge Report.
Breitbart was the first to post the infamous Twitter photos of U.S. Rep Anthony Weiner last year, in which the congressman appeared barechested and in his underpants. Weiner eventually stepped down amid the scandal.
An In Memoriam post on his website breitbart.tv said that it was with a "terrible feeling of pain and loss" that they announces his death.
"Andrew passed away unexpectedly from natural causes shortly after midnight this morning in Los Angeles," the post said. "We have lost a husband, a father, a son, a brother, a dear friend, a patriot and a happy warrior. Andrew lived boldly, so that we more timid souls would dare to live freely and fully, and fight for the fragile liberty he showed us how to love."

Can't say I'm sad about this news...
I'm surprised he made it this long. Thought he was going to give himself a heart attack at this occupy rally.

*Warning, he accuses everyone of rape and the phrase "freaks and animals" is used a lot.
It's sad for his family that he died so young. I still don't understand why someone would spend their life trying to ruin others. What he did to Shirley Sherrod was despicable. Perhaps his passing will allow others time to reflect on what they are doing themselves with the short time we get on this planet. Maybe, but I doubt it.
I feel for his family but as far as im concerned we are all better off with him not of this world....rightwing freak that was blind to reality...not unlike most republicans.
I'll refrain from saying anything negative except for the fact that in the hours after Ted Kennedy's death he called him a “villain,†“a big ass motherf@#$er,†a “duplicitous bastard†and a “prick.†and added “I’ll shut my mouth for Carter. That’s just politics. Kennedy was a special pile of human excrement,â€
Sounds like he might have died of poisoning from excess bile. But, guess not since he was always spewing it out.
