Almost as soon as the news came this morning that conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart had died suddenly of “natural causes,” the right-wing began a frenzy of Tweets and posts across social media claiming that President Obama may have had Breitbart killed because he recently threatened to reveal “college films” that would destroy the president.
These are the same conservatives that believe Andrew Breitbart was an ethical, fair and balanced journalist. He was a hack of the highest degree and ruined lives by peddling selectively edited videos to Fox News and right-wing bloggers. He was key in the closing of ACORN and was being sued for slander and defamation by Shirley Sherrod, a woman who was labeled as a racist by Breitbart and lost her job as a result.
At the recent Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), Breitbart foamed at the mouth over claims that he had film and photos of Barack Obama in college that would ruin the president once and for all. Because of Andrew’s outlandish claims, his followers are now insisting that his death is mysterious and he may be the victim of assassination to prevent him from telling the truth about Obama.
What a crock of shit.
WATCH Andrew’s recent CPAC speech (story continues below the video):
Here are some of the conspiracy Tweets:
“Did Obama kill Breitbart?-”I Have Obama College Films” –@dedrarussell
“I don’t believe for a minute that Breitbart’s death was natural. Remember, he said he had college video of Obama.” –@brandootr
“Breitbart was working on something big on Obama before he died at 43.” –@latexdress
“Andrew Breitbart just died of ‘natural causes’??? He must have been about to break something BIG against the establishment. Try [sic] killed him.” –@dasilvalaw
“Call for Congressional hearing and investigation. WHO KILLED BREITBART. Obama is a hit man with an army of parasites.” –mzagorski

Oh, the loopy-loos are out in full force. You know who really killed this guy – Rick Santorum. The films were really of Rick voting liberal.
Oh please! Like he was soooo important. They used to have a name for people who promote nonesense: Crackpots! And speaking of crack…Brietbart looks like a drug abuser to me.
Yep, the Right Wingnuts are pulling out every possible reason to blame Pres. Obama for EVERYTHING, but this takes the prize! Breithbart could have died of being NASTY, ALONE, he didn’t need help from anyone else! It is almost fun to see how far the Right will go to muster out a vote from people! Sad that they are so delusional, but it is funny too, because their tactics are so childish! If President Obama had wanted to kill off that bothersome fly, he would have done it long ago. (any video “evidence” Breitbart could have had against Obama, would be as fake as the other video shams he used against people and entities! The president would not be intimidated by it, at all!) Breitbart lost any credibility he had, by being found out as a LIAR! Breitbart had many enemies. The Kochs backed him, maybe it was a inside crime family kind of hit, made to look like “natural causes.”. Breitbart was one awful person, and they usually go on forever, like Cheney. (Hey! maybe Cheney flew like a vampire in the night, and stole Breitbart’s essence, so he could rev up his own evil! (Makes about as much sense as those accusing Obama!) We usually mourn those who pass on, but in this case, the tears shed for Breitbart will be about as plentiful as those shed for bin Laden!
Evil statements on someone that died. Great! I am saddened by your lack of grief for a fellow American. Disgusting that you are in denial. Yeppie….l..let’s celebrate $5. a gallon for gas……it’s a global issue…..yep no one knows how to control the natural resources that comes ground of our American soil……..
. Apologies were not necessary and they did not calm things .
Hey Judy –
Pull your head out of your ass. Just because you’re a non-critical thinking repug, it does not give you the right to stick your $5/gal. gas comments on every post. Or can you not read from too many years of Fox News?
BTW — Gas was over $4.50/gal four months before Dubya left office. It went down to around $1.65-$1.75/gal for the first part of Obama’s presidency. But we realize that your kind doesn’t bother with those pesky little facts.
here we go! go ahead right wing nuts we still will win in 2012, SORRY but Breitbart brought his destiny upon himself if you want to blame someone lets see you guys blame GOD!
See I heard He was giving another guy a BJ; and the condom came off and He choked to death on it; at least thats my theory; Him being such a conspirsist and all
Quick!!! let’s jump on this one too!!! “As long as we discredit Obama and his accomplishments all is game!”
What the?
The President killed no one. Heck why? This guy brought great coverage.
But umm… we do want to enjoy any college movies of the “age of Obama”.
Accomplishments of the great one! I’m sure no matter what they find it will all be good stock for TV gains.
Maybe we should stop the madness? By standing up together “to be for the people by the people”.
The time is here to make us all stand up for real freedom. Time to re-look our new nation; keep and make it as good as it can be!
Why waste time name calling and acting like idiots to make one side look bad for the sound bite?
Crap really who cares?
We want a free life, the one we thought we fought and died for so many times over and over!
Now we give all the freedom away to the “big brother” George Orwell wrote about so long ago.
Animal Farm sure comes to mind. “Some of these Animals sure have become more equal than others”. Kill the Pigs?
Why don’t you find some credible tweets to back up your claim of republican conspiracy theories? Listing a few no name crack pots, who don’t identify themselves as republicans, dosn’t mean jack, and dosn’t add any credibility to your post. There have been ZERO ligit reports of assasination theories regarding Brieghtbarts death. You are lying to your peers, and should be ashamed of yourself. Every report has clearly stated that Brieghtbart suffered from a heart condition and died from natural causes. You are lying for personal gain, and people like you are killing this country.
Dear Old Man Woody – It may be because of your age or the fact that you are obviously spoon-fed your “news” by Fox, but the link is in the article to prove these are credible tweets — along with 20 more as a sample. Because you live in a bubble void of any touch with reality…let us show you the VERACITY of our post….(we don’t lie)
1– This one ink should be enough for you if you don’t deny facts or get tired of reading a lot of words…http://rt.com/usa/news/obama-death-andrew-breitbart-641/
2– Andrew’s former employer even thinks so…http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/01/andrew-breitbarts-death-inspires-conspiracy-theories_n_1314988.html
And a few more for good measure just to do my part in preventing another ignorant soul on the right….
“HIT JOB?” screamed the headline by Tea Party Brief. “Soros, Media Matters, ‘Occupy’, Obama, & ACORN can now breathe a sigh of relief…”
“Was Andrew Breitbart Murdered For What He Was About To Reveal About Barack H. Obama?” read the Daily Paul, while a writer for AntiNewWorldOrder declared, in a news brief populated almost entirely by punctuation marks, that if he said the name of the man (hint: it’s President Obama) that had Breitbart killed, he would also find himself “dead of so called Natural causes like a boot to the head.”
Just for the record since your powers of logic and reason are shot to hell. You took our post as saying that we lend some kind of credibility to these crackpots. Our original post on Andrew’s death reports “natural causes” in reference to his death.
Wake up and smell reality dude.
Peace.
Obama believers are in denial. Our country is being weakened by apologies…..embarassment. ….again and again.
Yep, a very devoted man at age 43, just so happened the stars align for someone that had details to thewake up the world. Today he is dead.. Many are wondering what is really happening. Can’t wait for that $5.00 gal gas rates, We can not figure out how to manage the homeland mineral rights for gas rights from our land. Yes , the wing nuts do not get it. GoAvernment controls the the natural resources from the ground. Set it up our local gas resources for Americap. Global comments are not an option to figure this out. Liberal nuts are supporting parties that do not invest the time to claim our gas our rights. My powers of reason are disgusted by any party that believes we need to pay $5.00 gal come summer due to global a BS statement that has been shoved down our throats of americans. Fools will choose 4 years more of this gross insanity of government.
Hi Judy – Since you’re having trouble with the English language, let us help by pointing out that using accusations without fact is considered bad form. Also, it’s spelled “Government.”
Other than that, we could not figure out what the hell you were saying. That’s probably a good thing on our part.
Peace.
you’re sounding a little too much like Sara Palin. she couldn’t put together a coherent sentence either.
