What killed Andrew Breitbart?
Andrew Breitbart is dead. The infamous conservative web antagonist died just after midnight this morning. What killed Breitbart? He was only 43 years old. The family says he “passed away unexpectedly from natural causes.” Suddenly. “Unexpectedly.”
That’s odd.
Breitbart was the master of attack journalism. Heavy on the attack, light on the “journalism.” The more outrageous the attack the more ad space he sold and the richer and more influential he became. The tea party loved this guy. The people he attacked did not. Especially when Breitbart got his facts wrong. Which he did often. Too often.
According to the statement from his lawyer:
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.
It’s unclear if the “boldly” part refers to his web attacks or something else. In any case, a 43 year man is now dead. Unexpectedly.

About PGH
Political Gum Hockey is all about politics. I will offer viewpoints, opinions, and ideas on candidates, policies, parties, and anything else related to politics that I think is worth noting. With the 2012 Mayan presidential political campaign now underway, there will be commentary on the candidates, the issues, and the ridiculousness that politics seems to bring out in the people we are considering for the job of leader of the free world. Hopefully I can insert a little levity into the discussion (clearly we’re going to need it), but even though I may use humor I will still be deadly serious. Except, of course, when I’m not.
Oh, and yes you can call this site PGH if you are so enthralled with the mind-blowing commentary that you want to jump right in instead of typing out the whole title, or simply can’t figure out what Political Gum Hockey means.
Let the politics begin.
