In The Green Room: Andrew Breitbart
by Heritage Videos
Before his speech at The Heritage Foundation last week to discuss his new book, Andrew Breitbart sat down with us to discuss the power of the media and the continued influence of the Tea Party. Throughout the book, Breitbart relays his experiences dealing with a largely hostile media, something he discussed in the interview. “I have friends at ABC, and CBS, and NBC. Some of them are conservatives, some of them are just decent people and they tell me it’s impossible to pitch an idea that goes against [the network's] view. It’s impossible.”
When asked about his optimism for conservatism in the future, Breitbart said he was “beyond optimistic.”
He made it clear that the energy over the past year in conservative politics is a direct result of the Tea Party’s influence. “You would not have had the success in Wisconsin that you just had if you had not the psychic energy and the physical presence of Tea Party activists.”

“I have friends at ABC, and CBS, and NBC. Some of them are conservatives, some of them are just decent people and they tell me it’s impossible to pitch an idea that goes against [the network's] view. It’s impossible.”
That's just more proof that the big 3 networks are nothing more than state run media outlets.
"When asked about his optimism for conservatism in the future, Breitbart said he was “beyond optimistic.”
People are tired of the same old crap.
Tired of the same old shell game, with the same old corrupt two parties, fielding the same players.
Andrew Breitbart is a hero and natural leader in the free world; a person doing the right thing in the right place at the right time and very much needed!
The lib's are much more organized and plan oriented. The "Conservative Movement" runs itself like a tortoise. We seem to look at problems in the short-term. Once we get passed the one issue, we are done. While the lib's run by unions, government bureaucrats, traditional media, etc. work with long-term plans.
Who's running this hot-dog stand?
Breitbart is right. The Majority of the American people, aka The Tea Party Citizens are fed up with the anti-American Socialism that Obama represents! and we will get rid of him and all of those who've supported him!
Cleaning out America of those that support Obama is of primary importance, i.e. that is the Islamists, Illegals and Foreign students that are now the majority in Colleges. Stop the student Visas. They are hurting U.S. by displacing & replacing OUR own US students, as are the Illegals who take our kids seats and WE pay for it! ……STOP all of this! and Obama will be choked off.
"The "Conservative Movement" runs itself like a tortoise."
Remember the old story of the tortoise and the hare?
Unfortunately, for a generation now, you are correct Stan.
The conservatives have been running this race like a tortoise.
A tortoise on its back.
I believe it has now finally flipped over and righted itself, and might make some progress; but we sure have a long, long, way to go.
It will be a long hard slog and we'll have to battle BOTH parties, but I'm confident that we can get it done. We the People will prevail and the Republic will be saved.
We hit a home run in the last election. Now, we're coming up to the plate again.
Ask your local and state school officials to issue booklet copies of our Founding Documents to our students. In addition, have the students "test out" on it.
Pray the enemies of Freedom out with Psalms Ch 109. All situations start in the Spiritual Plane and manifest themselves into our physical realm.
I'm tired of the Republican RINOs squandering our voter's support to make "deals" with socialist for themselves! I'm certain there are also fine Democrats surrounded by socialists who'd like to see that change!
The Tea Party should never cool down!
You are right.
RINO's.
John McLame.
"His Rotundity" Gingrich.
Suckabee Huckabee.
"Slickhair" Romney.
Lyndsay "I'm Conflicted" Grahamnesty.
They are all the same.
They have sold their souls, and sold US out.
Mr. Breitbart raises an interesting point. Many of my Uber-liberal neighbors comment that Fox News is biased, racist, Nazi's, etc. I raise two points:
1. Remember when Glen back exposed van Jones and he was subsequently fired, stepped-down or whatever Washington coined it?
2. The work of Mr. O'Keefe with Acorn would never have been aired on CBS, ABC, CNN or NBC. However, Acorn was stripped of it's funding upon release of those videos.
My point is as follows: This is not senseless bias or "distorting facts." Examine the outcome and no one can dispute the truth.
Also, I purchased Mr. Breitbart's new book yesterday at a local Boston bookstore. I asked customer service to assist me with locating the book. My polite request was not well-received, and the book was on the bottom of the best sellers out of plain sight. Yet, Deval Patrick's book was on top and in clear view. And people wonder I am leaving Massachusetts…..
None of 'em are pointing out that a certain Barny Frank should be investigated for corruption! What the heck is wrong with these people?
Complicit.
all meat on the same rotten bone…..
You are absolutely correct!
There are those in power, who are complicit, corrupt politicians, who have sold their souls, ans sold US out.
I could go on ad naseum, but to name a few:
John McCain.
Lyndsey Graham.
Mike Huckabee.
Mitt Romney.
Newt Gingrich.
etc., etc, etc……………
Don't worry, I've been going into book stores and putting "Dreams from My Father" in the fiction sections for years now.
I feel the optimism. The American people have had a glimpse of the "utopia" that liberals have in mind for us and are running like hell the other direction. The moderate republicans are already a thing of the past even as they try to keep their balance and power. The wind is at our backs, this movement is unstoppable.
You're on message Andrew….Don't waiver, steer the course.
You left out, for the right reason.
On deck and coming to the plate, Slammin' Sarah Palin!
Andrew, you are brilliant and courageous. I am active in the Tea Party movement; I saw you speak in person at one of the first ones on April 15, 2009 in Santa Ana, CA. I have been to Washington D.C. twice; on 9/11/2009 and 8/28/2010.
Thank you Andrew. Thank you for defending Americans like me from the vicious racist smears of the Obammunist machine.
I just bought your book and it is excellent. We warriors in the trenches will win this war, thanks to the bravery and decency of Americans like you.
Thank you for everything you do, Andrew. You helped me to know that I wasn't a lone voice in the wilderness and that the majority of people are not liberal idiots.
Andrew has been more educated by his new teachers than he ever was by his old "Professors" (Labeled intellects), before he woke up!!! Now the dots in his mind…….Connect!!!
Hey, Andrew, I bought your book! I'm loving it! Just got started.
Can I have just a few moments to pitch an idea I've never heard discussed? Since I'm a loyal customer?
There must be a money trail from MMatters, John Podesta, etc… that goes into the pockets of these verminous spies, bloggers, tantrum-throwers, liars.
How are they getting paid? Could it be through internet debit transfers, or something like Paypal?
Picture, some idiot on MSNBC parrots some MM talking point, and immediately a nice little chunk of change appears on their account, courtesy of CAProgress.
If we could find out about how these basement dwellers are paid, that would open the door to all kinds of investigations.
And I'll bet a lot of those paid don't pay taxes on what they get…
But it is fiction. Ghost Written fiction.
