We didn’t just lose a General – we lost an entire Special Forces Division

By MJ LEE | 3/16/12 7:43 AM EDT

Weeks after the sudden death of conservative journalist Andrew Breitbart, Sarah Palin has penned an article encouraging his supporters to continue living out the late publisher’s mission — “the belated vetting of Barack Obama.”

“With the death of Breitbart, the conservative movement didn’t just lose a General — we lost an entire Special Forces Division,” Palin wrote in a piece published on Big Government late Thursday. “But he didn’t leave us without the tools and the knowledge we need to fight. This website — Breitbart 2.0 — is the culmination of his study of the technology and aesthetics of new media.”

“Breitbart’s most immediate mission was the belated vetting of Barack Obama. This obviously is an issue very near and dear to my heart,” she said, accusing the media of having reported “breathlessly” about her tanning bed while they “couldn’t be bothered” to properly investigate President Barack Obama’s past record.

“You would think the media — those watchdogs of the public trust — would be interested in this. But they refused to vet Barack Obama. With tingles up their legs, they shielded him,” she wrote. “So, as Breitbart declared in his last CPAC speech, we — the everyday patriotic citizens of the United States — will do the vetting the media refused to do.”

3. Yep...thank God she refused to be "coached"

Just watched "Game Change" again this afternoon. That woman burned a LOT of bridges.

2. That's good, Sarah. I hope you lose a lot more.

The world would be a better place without them.

[enki23]

4. Lots of special forces units in the field led by generals?

5. Good riddance

Breitbart was a mockery of journalism and everything that is wrong with our "POLITICAL SYSTEM". Arrogant obnoxious loudmouths like Breitbart, O'Keefe, Limbaugh and Glenn Beck are hurting our political system by marginalizing the moderate voices in both parties.

7. WEE!

Riding on the coat tails of others is fun. Keep marching Sarah, right to Florida, and keep walking. She IS the Walking Dead. Which BTW I am enjoying a day marathon of.

[Control-Z]

14. My family gets together for Walking Dead nights!!

We love the show and are in mourning anticipating the final episode of the season tonight. It seems that shows run shorter and reruns run longer than they used to.

[Politicalboi]

15. Yes they sure do

I also watch Breaking Bad. But tonight's W/D is going to be a grabber for sure.

8. Actually what I heard him say in his "last CPAC speech"

was:

"DIRTY FREAKS DIRTY FREAKS DIRTY FREAKS DIRTY FREAKS DIRTY FREAKS
DIRTY FREAKS DIRTY FREAKS DIRTY FREAKS DIRTY FREAKS DIRTY FREAKS"

and other hysterical bullshit, all screamed at a very high decibel level at some Occupy folks.

A few days later he went tits up.

And I'll bet out of 310 million Americans, 309.9 million just plain do not give a shit.

11. I like to think of this famous clip as the perfect way to remember Breitbart

[Politicalboi]

16. "They're dead, they're all messed up" LOL!

Love this movie. I have on DVD.

[rustydog]

10. "General Breitbart, I've assembled your division of Bigoted-elitist Special farces teams

[RoccoR5955]

12. I think, once again, Caribou Barbie was confused.

She meant to say, that we lost a Special FARCES Division. Oh well, I guess that's what you get when you keep notes on your hand.

[JBoy]

13. She's so full of shit. She's never read anything, including anything by Breitbart.

[Iggo]

17. "With tingles up their legs..."?

That woman is an idiot.

[Scairp]

18. Ha ha ha!

She is a RIOT! Can't get enough of her stupidity, it's utterly hilarious.

[MrScorpio]

19. Generalissimo Andrew Breitbart is still dead nt

[tabasco]

20. No such thing as a "Special Forces Division" in the US.

However, I see they have at least one in Syria.

Dimwit.

[USArmyParatrooper]

21. What I respect and admire about Sarah Palin...

She had the guts to show us all that is wrong with this country!


The fact that she was a serious candidate for the Executive Office says more about that than words could ever do.

[peace frog]

22. War is hell, you betcha! **wink**

Palin:

There is a new street art poster that’s being emailed around and will no doubt eventually be spotted on a street corner near you. It’s a gritty black and white image of Andrew Breitbart looking both battle-worn and ever vigilant with the caption: “BREITBART IS HERE.”

Ed Kilgore: "OMG. Andrew Breitbart is the Right’s very own Alinksky."

Digby: "Or, as one wag said in email: the right's Che."

[Lint Head]

24. I think they did it.
