Apparently he writes about it in a book, but when asked about it, well, like all right-wing hypocrites, he tries to deflect the question. The video in the link above shows his 'discomfort' at being asked about it.

He sure acts like someone who has some serious problems with some kind of chemical substance. Hopefully it IS a chemical substance that is responsible for his bizarre behavior and appearance.

In 1989 I took a semester off from Tulane to blow a minor inheritance from a deceased great aunt. I took to New York City and spent money worse than the drunken sailor cliche. I blew through $22k in about three months. At the end of this stupidganza, Ray and Dave White, who were three years ahead of me at Tulane, and has graduated the year before, invited me to their humble cabin home on a lake in New Jersey. For all of my bravado, I was scared about being way off course. By taking off a semester I was now four classes behind and poor, to boot.

http://www.rememberingray.com/archives/000084.html


He doesn't exactly say how he blows his inheritance. Could be a reference to coke or booze? Perhaps both, after all wasting $22K in three months is a lot of dough.

just asking a question (like can I get to my car) and then watching him yell RAPE in a crowded area, it really makes me wonder...was he trying to incite a riot? Either way, the man is batshit crazy...I am surprised he is not the King Emperor of SUPERCON-GOP-PAC. He is their media golden child. He is the reason we find evil people stealing all our money and then asking for a bailout. All that is wrong with America imo.

Maybe he can co-host with O'Really on the Foxnews Blowhole Hour. They could trade nasty mouth shots all night long until one slobbers dry and falls out of his chair.

people should always ask him. 'Hey, Andy, who is funding your dirty tricks'? He has some serious problems, and in a way it is kind of sad that it is people like him, with obvious psychological problems that they use as tools. His hateful rant online when Sen. Kennedy died eg, was sick. But then, who else would do such dirty, unethical work?

And yet, the MSM invites him on the air to discuss issues as if they know nothing about his insane, hateful rants while people like, eg, Amy Goodman or Thom Hartmann are never seen on the MSM.

Amy Goodman aren't invited on M$M as commentators is that they would likely expose the pretty-faced, empty headed talking heads embarrassingly low IQs and would speak truth in a way that would make the corporate masters uncomfortable.

Idiots like Breitbart fall right into their wheel house of low-intelligence, over-the-top, sensationalist, lying bullshit.

Except the over all gist of it. Can you please inform as to the identity of the guy portrayed as the person being interviewed? Is it Breitbart? Or is it O'Keefe?

Very curious about this issue now, and would love your assistance. (I take it it is Brad of the Brad Blog doing the interviewing. He is always on top of these issues, in a most excellent way.)

Apologies ahead of time for being so dense on this.

in the pimp suit below. O'keefe made the videos on behalf of Breitbart who promoted them through his site and made sure it went viral.

O'Keefe never wore the pimp suit and it was just a prop even though Fox News claimed he went to Acorn dressed like that.

Basically an image was presented to distort viewers perception in regards to what is portrayed in the video so one is already thinking negatively and seeing what they want you to see rather than what actually occurred.

Personally I think this should a criminal offense with O'Keefe, Breitbart, and the willing participants at Fox "News" being found guilty of fraud and deception.

Breitbart attempted to slime the GEICO gecko!!

Talk about a low life.

From an excellent piece over in the archives of newscorpse:

http://www.newscorpse.com/ncWP/?p=4599


9) GEICO Gecko – Tea Party Crasher? Breitbart’s BigGovernment blog posted a mind-numbingly stupid article that accused Ricky Gervais, the actor/comedian and voice of the GEICO Gecko of disparaging the Tea Party in a profanity-laced voice-mail.

The only problem is that Gervais had nothing to do with it. It was an actor (D.C. Douglas) who worked for GEICO a couple of years prior. But it wasn’t enough to smear Gervais with insinuations, Breitbart also posted a picture of the Gecko atop a table that was adorned with a poster of President Obama sporting a Hitler mustache. What that had to do with the story is anyone’s guess. It just appeared to be a gratuitous slap at the President while falsely slandering Gervais.

Others want it to be a progressive movement and take on many issues. I don't see it succeeding that way. That doesn't make me anti-Occupy, regardless of your continued claims.

Really odd hearing such total silence from DU's anti-OWS posters. You can tell that they're kinda sheepish about this clip, since Andrew Breitbart is articulating what they've been saying on DU for months, but in a much coarser, more concise manner. It must hurt having to bite down so hard on their tongues.

I think a complete psychological examination is in order.
I don't know much about Brietbart, but he is totally out of his mind to do something like this.
Going down and calling other people "freaks" and "filthy animals" was strange enough, but when he started yelling about rape, that was borderline psychotic.

He's lucky he wasn't arrested.
That guy that walked him away from there was his best friend that night, because Brietbart was inciting a riot by calling them names when they weren't doing anything to cause that kind of emotional outburst.

The RW have been scraping the bottom of the barrel for a long, long time. Half of their pundits and spokespeople would be considered looney, the only thing that gives them credeence is the fact they're paid so well and always in the news.

One might wonder if the 1%, TPTB or TIIC have realize how precarious their hold on the rest of humanity is. These are the screams of those who are losing control, although they'll take as many of us with them as they can. It's awful to watch.
