#2 A true voice against the repressive and lying left. He will be sorely missed by freedom loving Americans.

#3 The coincidence is amazing.
A lille over two weeks since this story broke:

#4 Not coincidence as such, DanNY. The man always had projects either about to go live or just revealed -- dynamo doesn't come close. He was a joyful warrior for the truth, and his impact will continue through the work of the team he built and the projects yet to be revealed.

#5 I hope the family does a very detailed private autopsy.

#6 Heart attack? Walking alone at night? Yeah, this has fingerprints all over it.

#8 The likelihood of "dead before you hit the ground" type heart attacks is the reason to take one or two fish oil pills a week, as it reduces the odds by about 1/3rd.

I gather Breitbart had also recently been diagnosed with a heart problem as well.

#9 Moose --

The question of the day is by what percent is your risk of heart attack increased by having video of Bammo in college?

#10 Iblis:
It can happen. Almost the exact same thing happend to a dear friend of mine two months ago. He just dropped dead, with his wife nearby. She called paramedics and attempted CPR immediately but he was gone. He was only 46.

#11 You can also die from falling coconuts. About 100 people die this way each year. Doesn't mean that's always the most likely explanation.

#12 Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is a leading cause of death in the United States, accounting for an estimated 250,000-325,000 deaths each year. 95% are dead before they get to a hospital.

About two-thirds of unexpected cardiac deaths occur without prior indication of heart disease.

#13 Knew he was in poor health.I was hoping he would be around for at least the last battle of the war in 2012.

Andrew at CPAC.

#14 Lets not get all conspiractoral here. The timing is interesting but heart attacks happen and don't consult your calender before hand.

The video will likely come out anyway.

#15 This news is like an icy dagger in my gut. Prayers and best wishes to his family, his friends and everyone who loved him.

#16 Damn. :-(

#17 I feell so sad for his wife and kids. I lost my brother when he was 43, leaving two young kids and a wife behind. It certainly put them at sea for a long time and the kids are still impacted.

To the left, Andrew was a hater...just filled wiht anger. They could not be more wrong. Like the Colonel said...they can't handle the truth.

#18 Famous folks have died before -- but I've never felt the depth of hurt I've had ever since hearing this report about 8:30 am on the way to work today.

#19 Few know their day or hour. Do your best as you can, while you can.

#20 He may be gone, but the reason he fought, and the people he rallied to that reason, still fight on. The left might be celebrating, but we are tightening our armor.

#21 He + family visited Guam long ago back in the early 1970's - surprised he didn't run into Glenn Beck, etal. I had difficulties pronouncing his last name properly. i.e. I kept overemphasizing the "t"s.

We met again later on in life - used to have dedicated, intense, even angry convabs ala Political Affairs + Conservatism-vs-Liberalism-vs-Socialism in America.

RIP, DREW.

#22 His fight is not over YET. The Yellow Legal Envelope has been delivered and this gift may be as golden as he always has been for our discourse.

Take your time :)
He was waiting - remember, just give them bits. not the whole steak.

Discovery shall be quite interesting.

Good on you Frater Andrew
