To his family, friends, colleagues, and to all for whom his work has been so inspiring, I offer my deepest sympathies. The fight will go on. We will never yield. We will win.
He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. - Revelation 21:4 (NIV)
Rest in peace, Andrew.
Update 1834EST: I just heard on Mark Levin's radio show a replay of an interview he did with Breitbart some time ago. The extent to which Breitbart had been attacked by the left and how he would refuse to back down made me think of Winston Churchill's "You do your worst - and we will do our best" speech of July 14, 1941. You can find the whole thing at the link, but I think the following excerpt speaks to the life of Andrew Breitbart, his legacy, and the task and challenges we patriots have in front of all of us.
It is for this reason that I must ask you to be prepared for vehement counter-action by the enemy. Our methods of dealing with them have steadily improved. They no longer relish their trips to our shores. I do not know why they do not come, but it is certainly not because they have begun to love us more. It may be because they are saving up, but even if that be so, the very fact that they have to save up should give us confidence by revealing the truth of our steady advance from an almost unarmed position to superiority. But all engaged in our defence forces must prepare themselves for further heavy assaults. Your organization, your vigilance, your devotion to duty, your zeal for the cause must be raised to the highest intensity.
We do not expect to hit without being hit back, and we intend with every week that passes to hit harder. Prepare yourselves, then, my friends and comrades, for this renewal of your exertions. We shall never turn from our purpose, however sombre the road, however grievous the cost, because we know that out of this time of trial and tribulation will be born a new freedom and glory for all mankind. .
