Who is still waiting for LG or anyone else to claim their 100,000 dollar check by providing a single ( JUST ONE) audio or video tape of any Tea party member making a racial slur during a rally.

Who took down Acorn.

Who took down Weiner and gave to us Weiner gate.

Who puts fear in all the left wing liberals everywhere and makes them wonder if their next.

My Hero.

Andrew Breitbart.

Keep up the good work my friend. You rock!

I think the $100,000 was offered for one specific instance. It was after Obamacare was passed, I believe, and a black caucus of democratic congressmen claimed they were called the N-word at least 15 times. With all the cameras and phones present at the time it's a miracle nobody's claimed the 100 G's.

I implore you to convince me as to why the personal lives of politicians should be public record.

Breitbart comes off just a little too sleazy for my taste.

You don't think any of the people who had pics of weiner's weiner had any leverage on him at all?

You don't think anyone learning about this that told weiner he either voted his way or leaked the pics was going to get his vote?

I don't personally feel we should be in politcians live's but when things like this are out there the ones who know about it have huge pull. That isn't good.

that's because it never happened and those black congressman were, and still are, lying through their teeth about the incident.

I'd be curious how Breitbart makes a go of it. Seems to have a lot of ppl working for him, he's tapped in to a lot of resources, it seems....

Just sayin.'

The reason the left hates Breitbart so much is that he does the same thing to liberals that the MSM does to conservatives.

The leverage is a result of the media and the voyeuristic public believing this stuff matters.

The politicians themselves make it public record when they run for office and make themselves out to be great and loyal family men. I enjoy watching hypocrites fall on their faces.

They only make themselves out to be family men because he ignorant masses esteem that quality as if it is in any way relevant to political leadership.

The vast majority of politicians throughout history have been womanizers; the few that have been mostly "vice-less" have been responsible for, well let's just say, pretty poor policies.

I totally agree. I'll take a principled politician getting more *** than the 3 Kennedy's combined over Mike Huckabee.

He's actually had several things "right" ahead of the rest of the media.

Again, you guys hate him because he engages in the same kind of "gotcha" reporting that is standard fare for the MSM when it comes to reporting on Republicans or conservatives.

Just a few examples....

- Body counts- when Bush was prez we got daily, grim casualty counts from the ME wars. Those ceased and have not begun again since Obama took over. Why?

- National Guard stories vs Obama's radical associations- the first the MSM couldn't get enough of even to the point of fabricating what they could not find. The latter they did not find "newsworthy"... along with Obama's academic records

- Bush's "gravitas" was in question because he had only been governor of Texas and had no foreign policy experience... remember? Yet the MSM has NEVER questioned Obama's qualifications to be President. FWIW, had he applied for a mgt job with the corporation I work for when he became President he would not have gotten a second look even if he had industry knowledge. He had never led or managed anything substantial... yet the MSM didn't think this was newsworthy.

Bias is not usually in how something gets reported. It is almost always in what gets chosen as "newsworthy". Breitbart thinks scandals, misdeeds, and things that embarrass Dems is newsworthy. The MSM finds those things interesting only if they hurt Republicans or conservatives.

It is my business as long as my wealth and income are their business on April 15th. When they start respecting my property RIGHTS.... I will more than gladly give them a wide berth.

Couldn't be something like blackmailing him with the threat of telling his wife... right?

All things being equal... I don't want to know this. I don't want to have to care whether he has character and judgment or not. All things being equal.... being that gov't is much more restricted in size, scope, and ability to manipulate people or deny their rights.

When this guy sits in judgment to decide that I have not paid my "fair share" toward assuring that someone else has the things they want or need... then his character and judgment are very much my business.

What does that have to do with anything? I am not confiscating your wealth, am I? I am not using force of law backed by the business end of a gun to give your wealth to someone else because I have morally judged that you weren't generous enough on your own, have I?

To your question though... am I morally better than Weiner on this particular point? Yes. I am.

What does this have to do with the price of tea in China? Politicians are blackmailed and bribed everyday over all sorts of things, and the vast majority of it is legal and funded through lobbies and campaign money.

Seems to me that the issues are taxes and spending, not private life. Of course, it is easier to remove someone for "scandalous behavior" and claim that it somehow effects their job than to convince the electorate to radically change the federal tax laws.

Way to discard principles when calling someone out for violating your notion of ethical principles...

I just agree with keeping their private lives private. Not that I agree with anything Weiner did, but I believe keeping the public out of public figures personal lives.

Didn’t it cease being private when he sent it into the public domain?
