Don't talk to her like that again.
Those were the words of Fox and Friends host Brian Kilmeade. A debate had been scheduled between Debra Burlingan and Richard Tofel.
Debra's brother was killed on 9-11. The debate was over the freedom center. Tofel is the director of the International freedom center.
Tofel was clearly outmatched by Debra. She won every argument. Tofel appeared to be very secretive. After the debate was over and the segment ended Tofel walked up to Debra.
Debra was very emotional at this point. Her eyes had already filled with tears. Tofel walked up to Debra and patted her on the back and said "Nice Try"
Kilmeade followed Tofel back to the dressing room and physically got in the man's face. "You are totally inappropriate. And you will not be talking to her like that again. Do not touch her again"
Tofel refused to leave the building acting like a small child. He was eventually escorted out.
Many folks are outraged because the center is going to be used for left wing propaganda. According to the International Freedom Center's Web site, the museum will "deal with the international impact of September 11," as well as such issues as segregation in America and the Holocaust.
"It doesn't belong at a memorial," said Charles Wolf, whose wife, Katherine, died in the World Trade Center collapse. "You wouldn't put a debate about Nazism and authoritarianism at Dachau."
Center President Richard J. Tofel said that while the causes of the Sept. 11 attacks would not be up for debate, the center would not bar criticism of the United States and its actions.
Bump for Brian Kilmeade!
What a BASTARD. Glad I went a protested at Ground Zero the other day.
I agree.
This Tofel guy might need to be looked at. He might have some terrorist links.
Brian Kilmeade has to every womans fantasy! There's not many men like him around anymore.
Can Brian run for Senate, we need at least one real man to show them how its done.
Wasn't he supposed to be the one that clocked Al Franken when he got out of line a couple of years ago?
Maybe he could run for Senate in New York.
Mr. Kilmeade's stock has just gone up 1000% in my books.
Thanks for posting this!
One with a backbone!
We ought to run Debra Burlingame for something. She has proven to be a very articulate spokesperson.
I hope this gets around. Brian is really quite a man.
Brian had the heated debate Gerafalo on Fox and Friends a couple years ago.
Tofel?
hmmm....in German, "Teufel" means "DEVIL."
:-)
He also confronted Bill Clinton about 911..and asked him if he felt responsible.
