The voice from beyond the grave
Andrew Breitbart may tragically be dead and gone but his organization is still strong.
As someone else said, that in his memory, we need to all be Andrew!

Breitbart.com:
The Vetting, Part I: Barack's Love Song To Alinsky
The introduction:
Prior to his passing, Andrew Breitbart said that the mission of the Breitbart empire was to exemplify the free and fearless press that our Constitution protects--but which, increasingly, the mainstream media denies us.
�Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?� � �Who guards the guardians?� Andrew saw himself in that role�as a guardian protecting Americans from the left�s �objective� loyal scribes.
Andrew wanted to do what the mainstream media would not. First and foremost: Andrew pledged to vet President Barack H. Obama.
Andrew did not want to re-litigate the 2008 election. Nor did he want to let Republicans off the hook. Instead, he wanted to show that the media had failed in its most basic duty: to uncover the truth, and hold those in power accountable, regardless of party.
From today through Election Day, November 6, 2012, we will vet this president--and his rivals.
We begin with a column Andrew wrote last week in preparation for today�s Big relaunch--a story that should swing the first hammer against the glass wall the mainstream media has built around Barack Obama.
Andrew's post:
In The Audacity of Hope, Barack Obama claims that he worried after 9/11 that his name, so similar to that of Osama bin Laden, might harm his political career.
But Obama was not always so worried about misspellings and radical resemblances. He may even have cultivated them as he cast himself as Chicago�s radical champion.
In 1998, a small Chicago theater company staged a play titled The Love Song of Saul Alinsky, dedicated to the life and politics of the radical community organizer whose methods Obama had practiced and taught on Chicago�s South Side.
Obama was not only in the audience, but also took the stage after one performance, participating in a panel discussion that was advertised in the poster for the play.
There is a lot more including an image of the poster for the play replete with Marxist symbolism and a list of the panelists -- Breitbart then lists their Curriculum Vitae (just an excerpt):
Leon Despres: Despres knew Saul Alinsky for nearly 50 years, and together they established the modern concept of �community organizing.� Despres worked with secret Communist and Soviet spy Lee Pressman to support strikers at Republic Steel in Chicago in 1937; the strike ended in tragedy when 14 rioting strikers were killed and many wounded in a hail of police bullets. Despres worked with another Communist Party front, the Chicago Civil Liberties Committee, but eventually left because of the �Stalinism� of its leaders.
Also in 1937, Despres and his wife delivered a suitcase of �clothing� to Leon Trotsky, then hiding out from Stalin�s assassins in Mexico City. Despres and his wife not only met with the exiled Russian Communist, but Despres�s wife sat for a portrait with Trotsky pal and Marxist muralist Diego Rivera while Leon took Rivera�s wife Frida Kahlo to the movies.
Quentin Young: From 1970 until at least 1992, Quentin Young was active in the Communist Party front organization, the Chicago Committee to Defend the Bill of Rights � a group dedicated to outlawing government surveillance of radical organizations. He was also a member of the Young Communist League. Young, a confidante and physician to Barack Obama, is credited with having heavily influenced the President�s views on healthcare policy.
Timuel Black: An icon of the Chicago left, Black was originally denied officer training because military intelligence claimed he had secretly joined the Communist Party. Black also worked closely with the Socialist Party in the 1950s, becoming president of the local chapter of the Negro American Labor Council, a organization founded by Socialist Party leader A. Phillip Randolph.
These are the people who guided and mentored our sitting President.

A long read but an excellent one for getting into the head of our President and understanding why this nation is falling apart, why energy is so expensive.
Want to do something about it -- VOTE and work for the senators and representatives up for election this November. We do have the chance to turn things around but it has to start now -- no more kicking the can down the road.
