The rumors are rampant on the freeper site regarding a so-called bombshell Breitbart was holding.

I will not link to the site but you can check for yourself.

To summarize: They are saying he had a video tape of Obama in college that apparently is damming.
Of course this is just more wailing and gnashing of teeth by the right wingnutters. But you know this will
be the next thing to replace the birther garbage.

They're also saying the coroner was bought and it was suspicious Breitbart was taking a walk late at night when he collapsed.

Some times the dead do not just die. Breitbart left a lot of trash in his wake and it will take a lot to clean it up.

that bastid got in over his head and if it is true he is dead then that's probably what done him in. I say he either took the cowards way out or faked a death

3. Breitbart had mentioned on talk radio (Hannity, I believe) that he was holding something

He was not specific and it was all pretty cryptic.

This was within the last couple of weeks.

That is probably the seed for their conspiracy tree.

4. When did Breitbart EVER HOLD BACK a tape he saw as damning? It would've been edited long ago

and distributed to every news outlet even if there was just the wee bit of tape that could be chopped to exploit and portray what Breitbart wanted his audience to believe. Sooooooooo.....he obviously had NOTHING.

And see what drugs were in his system. I won't be surprised if coke or crack show up. Of course, these same people will then be screaming that Obama had the evidence planted.

12. Any video he had would have been toyed with because thats how he was

the right would believe it and we would not.

Simply he probably had a heart attack because of being a type A personality and drinking and was overweight.

opponent leaves the dance floor, another one readies to do the Watusi with us. Hopefully, that one will be more eloquent and worthy of evening entering into the fray with.

Meanwhile, in the matrix of concepts, fabrications will spin and blend around the fading specter of the dead combatant. What is not known as certainty will be dressed in an ornate ball gown and taken out to promenade across the panels of fantasy and speculation, titillating and moving all who partake.

So much is possible in the mutable, manipulative phantasmagoria of booger-flicks about the way things might be. We are wealthy in verbal spells cast by spelling whatever seems to be relevant, yet lacking the powerful grimoires of grammar wielded more adeptly by the master word magicians.

And so, like the sound and fury that signifies nothing, distraction abounds and bold action lies bleeding in a corner of actuality.
