I am terribly, terribly saddened to learn just now of the untimely passing of Andrew Breitbart.

My friendship with Andrew was limited to a few long phone calls, but it was enough for me to see how his love for his country sprang from his love for his fellow man and how greatly he loved his children. The loss to both is incalculable.

Andrew will be greatly missed, but we can say for certain that this country is stronger and better because we was here.

I will say prayers for his family. May he rest in peace.
