Breitbart came to be well-known for his work with the Drudge Report (he also played an early role with The Huffington Post),and would go on to found the Big Journalism,Big Hollywood and Breitbart.com websites. He was also an author,columnist and ubiquitous commentator in the media.

Wow, wouldn't have expected this.

I wonder.

"Early this morning, news broke that Sen. Ted Kennedy had passed away after serving in the U.S. Senate for nearly 50 years. Soon after, conservative commentator Andrew Breitbart began a sustained assault on Kennedy’s memory, tweeting “Rest in Chappaquiddick.”

Over the course of the next three hours, Breitbart unapologetically attacked Kennedy, calling him a “villain,” “a big ass motherf@#$er,” a “duplicitous ****” and a “prick.” “I’ll shut my mouth for Carter. That’s just politics. Kennedy was a special pile of human excrement,” wrote Breitbart in one tweet."

Sounds like he had Ted pegged pretty well.

Yep, them's fairly kind words to offer up in ChappaTeddy's mammory.

:-k

Yeah, as far as we know he never killed anyone, unlike Ted.

Inbetween loads of laundry and taxing kids to school that all YOU'RE able to do. Oh sure you could cram in some college courses but let's face it you're too busy making cookies and logging on here.

Let me sum up that last post of yours in a manner the rest of the board will understand you...Andrew = Muckracker...Teddy = drove a woman to her death in the muck.
