Patton: Why America Needs Breitbart More Than Ever

I fear he is on point, and we will miss Mr. Breitbart more than we may realize now. 

 

By Doug Patton

“Every man dies. Not every man really lives.” — William Wallace, from Braveheart

Internet journalist and entrepreneur Andrew Breitbart died last week at age 43. He left behind a wife, four young children, a lot of friends and political allies, and a throng of mendacious enemies. He was a 21st Century Woodward and Bernstein. He exposed the lies of the Left more brazenly than anyone on the current national scene.

After working with Matt Drudge on the Drudge Report for a decade, Breitbart struck out on his own, starting web sites such as Breitbart.com, BigHollywood.com, BigJournalism.com and BigGovernment.com. His investigative reporting uncovered Anthony Weiner’s online depravity, which led to the New York congressman’s resignation. He told us about the racism of Agriculture Department official Shirley Sharrod and helped expose the corruption of Barack Obama’s favorite community organizing group, ACORN. He was a bold and a fearless man.

Within days of Breitbart’s death — hours, really — it became obvious why his pugnacious presence in our public discourse will be sorely missed. On the very day of his passing, radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh waded into one of those cultural battles that Breitbart so dearly loved to fight. As usual, Rush was waxing outrageous on his radio program, this time regarding Sandra Fluke, a female Georgetown law student recruited to testify before Nancy Pelosi’s mock congressional committee hearings as to why she believed she should be provided thousands of dollars worth of contraceptives and abortion-producing pharmaceuticals at absolutely no cost to her. Pelosi’s phony inquiry was held because she was unhappy with the legitimate congressional hearings concerning the Obama administration’s totalitarian policy of requiring health insurance companies to provide these medications “free.”

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
