There are odd parallels between the death of Andrew Breitbart and Obama staffer Alex Okrent. In both cases there were statements reported in the news almost immediately that they had died of heart attacks, even before autopsies were performed. In both cases they oddly collapsed then shortly thereafter died. In both cases their age did not portent a heart attack.
But where Andrew Breitbart was an open book—his life, words, and works literally strewn over the Internet—Alex Okrent’s life is a mystery. An extensive search of the Internet finds that there is literally nothing about him prior to July 13. This is odd given that the Obama campaign has stated he had been a staff member, a “communication employee,” for eight years. Eight years is a long time in politics. But aside from a single blog posting in February of 2008 where Okrent posts an Obama open letter to gays and lesbians regarding his stance on same-sex marriage, nothing shows him to be an Obama staff member or associated with the Obama campaign in any way.
Equally odd is his Twitter timeline. Going back to 2009, of his hundreds of tweets, nothing makes mention of his being a staff member of the Obama campaign, including his bio. Granted, he tweets out support for Obama’s stance on gay marriage; several times tweets that his followers should donate to Obama’s campaign, but there is no “Working on Obama’s campaign xyz today” kind of tweets.
We could probably somehow explain this away, but the literal wiping away of any information on the Internet about Alex Okrent (including a deleted Facebook page) cannot be disregarded. For anyone who has Google’d their own name knows, someone who merely exists in the world is all over the Internet. Their connection to the high school they went to; college; volunteer groups; blogs; what is tweeted; boyfriends, girlfriends, friends, acquaintances, Facebook posts, etc.
Oddly, the last tweet that Alex Okrent made was to a woman named Sarah Roberts. Roberts had tweeted out: “Trying to find a spot/bar to meet someone near Brown Line, Diversey stop: any recommendations?” Okrent had tweeted back: “Delilah’s is about a 5-6 minute walk from there, on Lincoln at Diversey. Grungy dive-y whiskey bar. one of the best.” Delilah’s is a popular Chicago bar frequented by gays and lesbians. But more pointedly, Sarah Roberts, not particularly famous, not associated with the President of the United States, has literally hundreds of photos, thousands of postings associated with her name, like one would expect that is connected with social media. In fact she has been blogging for the past four years and posts various photos of herself, her friends, etc., something we would have expected Alex Okrent to do. Where are the photos of Obama staffers having a drink after a hard day of work? Aside from the one photo of Okrent allegedly at Obama campaign headquarters on his Twitter bio, there are no photos. Okrent has been with the Obama campaign for eight years and no photos of Obama? No photos of campaign events? No photos of fellow Obama staff members?
Further, his family, mother Lynn Pollack and Mike Okrent live in Evanston, minutes away from the Chicago headquarters where Okrent worked, and there are no photos of family events. No tweets as, ‘My birthday today. Here’s a photo of me and my mom,’ etc.
Here’s another odd fact. Lynn Pollack, the mother, appears on the Internet more than her son. Not in a good way either. Pollack is extensively associated and has a leadership role in an organization named innocuously Jewish Voice for Peace. Despite its name, the group is virulently anti-Israel, believing the Jews are occupying the land of Israel; are guilty of “apartheid,” i.e., the normal Islamic extremist line that Jews are illegally living in Israel. That somehow having a four-thousand year connection to a land is irrelevant. That those who espouse the “apartheid” meme also often seek the Jews annihilation being ignored. Jewish Voice for Peace is part of the “social justice” umbrella of anti-Israel groups, such CODEPINK, that have touchy-feely names, but have extensive radical ties (in the days when radicals were outed as radicals, we’d call them front groups).
This oddity goes further, in that this group is comprised of many Jews. “Self-hating” as some have called it. In fact Alex Okrent’s sister, Abigail Okrent, finds herself on a website called the Jewish S.H.I.T. List (Self-Hating and/or Israel-Threatening). Of Abigail Okrent the website writes: ‘This Evanston, Illinois Jew is a member of Jeff Alpert’s pro-Arab Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions.” Abigail Okrent is also found on Marxist watchdog Trevor Loudon’s website. Even odder, Alex Okrent is listed on this Jewish S.H.I.T. List website, but with no description. His mother is also on a petition entitled American Jews Oppose Israeli Policy in Gaza. In fact the person conducting Okrent’s funeral,Howard Friedland, has been identified as an Israel-hating Marxist.
Could this be the link of Obama’s anti-Israel, Marxist policies that Obama had to conveniently sweep away?
Given the ability of this President to cover up all of his radical connections, all of his past abominations, we may never know.

read between the lines. he had SEX with obama and had to be exterminated to be kept from talking. It’s in the tradition of clinton
Most of these half breeds and half castes are mentally unstable sexual perverts, ‘swingers’, or sick sodomites and pederasts. ‘Monarchy’ operative “Barack Obama” is one sick half breed homosexual illegal immigrant who needs to go back home – “To Africa”.
obozo is a cut throat killer. He’s a pervert who had another one killed because “dead men tell not tales.” See website: http://www.haasstrep68.com
Correction: . . . . . “dead men tell no tales.”
Why did a black preacher from Harlem have a “hit” placed on his life?

“Food For Thought”
Semper Fi!
I’d like to find the words to express how disturbing this all is. I’m just now hearing about this. I know to the very core of my being that Barack Obama is a real, in your face, bad guy, There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it.
By the way…this sounds all very Michael Clayton like to me. Awful shit. Seriously. What are we going to do about this guy?
I’ve never been able to get my arms around the concept of the self-hating Jew. Are there any other nationalities or ethnic groups that produces so many individuals opposed to their own heritage and ethnicity? Hating Yahweh has to be at the heart of it, seeing that He chose the Jewish people and has never reneged on His promises to them. In the Book of Exodus Korah, Dathan and Abiram opposed Moses, instigating a rebellion against him. God took all He could for awhile and then opened up the ground from beneath the feet of these three, swallowing them up along with their wives and families. Perhaps this is where the “self-hating Jew” originated.
This is just more great news of the missing person Obama..the files and folders keep growing:
great job !! I think we should make a movie remake…’ The Invisible Man ‘ He always leaves a trail that
none can follow…but as the continued flow of anomolies show up we soon should have at least a
negative to develope. This guy Obama is a blank page. He is not from Africa, not an American, not a
Muslim, not a Christian, not a communist (they say ) not white, not all black, i.e. like SNL…preacher
woman………could it be………….SATAN ? but then…Satan is pretty well known
or is He ?
Let’s just say a close friend of the Devil….not to stirr up any rolling eyes in the living dead… Peace..
Dear Mr. Zane,
Please revise your contention that Mr. Okrent has no online presence besides a Twitter account. It is provably false and you have no right to post false information like this. Mr. Okrent maintained a LinkedIn account at the time of his passing: http://www.linkedin.com/pub/alex-okrent/2/95a/512
And, furthermore, Mr. Okrent’s Facebook account is still active to this day. Like the Facebook page of many deceased men, women and children, it has become a place for friends and family to mourn and share their grief and loss. Its privacy settings, however, are restricted so that he is visible to “friends” only. This is why you, personally, can’t see it. Restricting the visibility of one’s social media pages is a common practice among political staffers, Republican and Democrat, because of incidents such as this: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/12/obama-favreau.html
Why you have made such outlandish assumptions without doing simple research (including Googling, which you claim to have done but are obviously terrible at) is beyond me.
And, oh look here, it’s a document from 2008 (updated in 2009) with Okrent listed as a staff member in North Carolina: http://www.gwu.edu/~action/2008/obama/obamagennc.html
Or, look, here is Wesleyan University confirming Okrent as an ’05 grad, which tells you exactly what he was doing from 2001-2005 — going to school: http://wesconnect.wesleyan.edu/s/1318/index_social.aspx?sid=1318&gid=1&pgid=1705&cid=3227&ecid=3227&crid=0&calpgid=710&calcid=1764
LASTLY, you claim that the Chicago bar Delilah’s is a popular gay and lesbian hangout in Chicago. Your argument for this is based on the fact that you lifted a screenshot from Google books where the bar is listed in page 158 of the book “A Field Guide to Gay and Lesbian Chicago.” However, if you scroll up two pages back in that book to page 156 you might notice that Delilah’s is listed in a section on STRAIGHT BARS. You should learn to read and learn to do research. This might come as a shock to you, but if you have ever been to an urban metropolis in the last 35 years, you probably visited a place where straight and gay people existed in the same room at the same time.
Go here and look at page 156: http://books.google.ca/books?id=LIQZlV0VNyoC&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q&f=false
Or maybe you didn’t notice because you were too busy looking around for gay hangouts to bother to check what section you were in?
I should add that both Okrent’s LinkedIn page and his Facebook page list and make explicit reference to his employment in the Obama office and on the Obama campaign from 2004 to 2012. Which shoots down your ridiculous claim that he never mentions it. A twitter account is a twitter account. It’s for posting frivolous tibits in 140 characters or less. You can hardly indict someone for not posting a running diary of their job on a social networking site — they’re probably too busy doing their job.
