The Golden Rule and the DeadI'm a bit put off by much of the venom directed toward Andrew Breitbart after his death. That's bad karma. It's true that
he lied about ACORN, a group devoted to letting poor people and minorities vote (quick aside: I'm totally ecstatic that the Justice Department
is calling the state of Florida on their voter suppression efforts).
Nevertheless, Breitbart is dead and we should obey the Golden Rule and hope that he has experiences that we would want to have in the afterlife. For instance, in the afterlife, I would love to have a conversation with the late
Hosea Williams, who--along with others--suffered greatly in Alabama in his struggles for voting rights (e.g., the notorious
"Bloody Sunday").
I hope for nothing less for Breitbart.
