9-11 Memorial: Keep Up the Pressure. It is working!

It began with an editorial in the Wall Street Journal by Debra Burlingame. She blew the whistle on the hijacking of the 9-11 Memorial at the World Trade Center by Leftists who seek to turn the Memorial into a blame-America-first site, under the disguise of "celebrating freedom," (the sins against freedom perpetrated mostly by America) but with great disregard for 9-11. This was 10 June.

The same day, Ms Burlingame appeared on Neil Cavuto's program on Fox News. In a few sentences, she outlined what is going on by the hijacking Left at tax-payer expense, and aided and abetted by a silent press.

On 14 June, Richard Tobin, directing the Leftist project, appeared on Neil Cavuto's program, to provide the opportunity for the issue to be "fair and balanced." Mr. Tobin utterly slimed his way through his presentation. He used spin, spin, and more spin to obfuscate. He tried to "polish meatballs," as the old expression goes, apparently thinking those of us out here in "fly over country" are too dense to realize that you can't polish meatballs. While spinning, incidentally, he corroborated the truth of every one of Debra Burlingame's indictments, despite oleagenous efforts directed to blowing smoke up the orifices of the gullible. Cavuto and another commentator talked about Tobin's obvious spin and Tobin's corroboration of Burlingame's assertions during the program, right after Tobin's appearance.

This issue, thank heavens, has become a snowball rolling downhill. The MSM (main stream media)--or as Tony Snow calls them, "the has-been media," write and say nothing, but the issue is showing up more and more, if not daily, on regular Fox News. On 21 June, Fox News covered the 20 June rally by the Take Back the Memorial organization in Manhattan as well as covering the issue on Fox and Friends. Outrage gathers steam.

On 21 June, Cox and Forkum published a fantastic political cartoon of this issue. DO NOT MISS THIS ONE.

Two things are evident at this point: (1.) The liberal perfidy cannot hold out IF WE CITIZENS KEEP THE PRESSURE ON, AND INCREASE IT. (2) Liberals lie--so, examine everything these allegedly "freedom celebrating" liberals are planning, but buy nothing on their assurances of their sincerityand "good intentions."

STOP THE PRESSES! New and useful information comes out from the 21 June O'Reilly Factor on the Fox News Network.

O'Reilly interviewed Brian Killmeade, one of the hosts of Fox and Friends. On the morning of 21 June, when Debra Burlingame and Richard Tobin were interviewed together, some rather dispicable things went on off camera. These events throw more light onto the International Freedom Center controversy.

As reported, Debra Burlingame and Richard Tobin sat together in the "green room" pre-interview on Fox and Friends. Strong tensions developed to the point that Debra asked not to go on at the same time Richard did. Fox turned down this request. The interview went as planned, and it was obvious that no love was being lost between Debra and Richard. What happened afterward is shocking.

Off camera, Richard Tobin, according to Mr. Killmeade, went to Debra, "patted" her rather harshly and excessively and said "Nice try, Debra," in a very sarcastic manner. Debra began crying. Brian Killmeade went to Richard Tobin to tell him to behave himself, but Tobin became uncooperative. He even refused to leave the building until Debra had left. Apparently, all the on-air charm failed to manifest itself off-camera. He was escorted from the building.

This man, Tobin, is worse than what meets the eye. He not only confabulates and spins, but he is a hostile bully who resorts to crudity to try to intimidate those he cannot persuade. Clearly, Tobin feels severely threatened by the Take Back the Memorial movement. He sees his tax-payer funded monstrosity of Leftistism going down the drain, and his power and influence with it.

Let's stay hot on this and simply flush Tobin, Soros, Foner, the ACLU, and all of the hate-America-first crowd, to the tune of "Good-bye and Good Riddance."
