I wasn’t a fan of Andrew Breitbart’s work. Helping debunk his most infamous smear was my good deed for the year.
That said, I’m not going to celebrate anyone’s death, save for the occasional jihadist mass murderer. Nor am I going to mark someone’s passing with the kind of ridiculous hyperbole that’s become a trademark of partisan ghouls left and right.
Thursday, it was the left’s turn. According to some “progressives,” Breitbart was worse than bin Laden. And, of course, der Fuhrer.
AlmightyBob @AlmightyBoob : @AndrewBreitbart haha youre dead and in hell being a gay with hitler
Jeff Glasse @jeffglasse : Andrew Breitbart now enjoying afternoon tea with Hitler #goodriddanceyouhack
@darrenfiorello: Andrew Breitbart died? Is it wrong that I’m happier about that than when they got bin Laden and Saddam?
Dufus @dufus : Did we cry when Hitler died? No.. #Breitbart see you in hell asshole
I just chose to ignore his passing, but in Breitbart’s case what’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
