Not that sad, given that I actually had to google the guy to see who he was. Tommy_Carcetti Mar 2013 #5

Well his kids lost a father, though its arguable they are better off for it. Erose999 Mar 2013 #6

whatever it was called. How weird, for him to do a tribute to a RW hack.

Precisely what Breitbart mush have felt as he lay dying alone from syphilis in a gutter somewhere.

Syphilis. Syphilis. Syphilis.

Never actually remember hearing the name Johnny Ondrasik or Five for Fighting before.

Apparently, he sung the song "Superman" which I recognize as receiving considerable airplay on Top 40 stations in the early 2000s. But I honestly thought John Mayer sung that song.

So you're telling me John Mayer didn't sing "Superman"? Heh.

I guess it is sad that anyone would actually sit down and waste valuable days/hours/minutes of their life writing a song about Andrew Breitbart. That's a tragedy for anyone, I don't care who you are.

People seem to forget that Andrew Breitbart smeared an innocent woman by turning her into a racist by selectively editing a speech of hers where she actually gave an uplifting message of racial harmony. Actually caused her to get fired. Don't get me wrong, I didn't wish Andrew Breitbart dead, but I don't think the human race lost a single thing the day he died.
