This is from just less than three years ago; at the time Breitbart hadn’t even launched Big Government yet – that would come in August of 2009 with the rollout of James O’Keefe’s ACORN videos.

At the time of this interview Breitbart was primarily engaged in combatting the left-wing tyranny of Hollywood; but his grasp on that unhappy circumstance, and its effect on American life, was unparalleled. Looking back at his performance in this clip it’s hardly surprising that Breitbart would rocket to the prominence he achieved until his death last night.

Losing this man is a terrible blow. A terrible blow.
