Robert thank you for that link,it is not bill O'reilly who is looking out for us.it is Robert Spencer...lol

Has this ever been on at a normal hour? I'll have to tape it.

Saw this morning's program. Disappointing.

Missed the first ten minutes. For the next 30 minutes Bostom read some passages from his book.

Then there was only about 15 minutes left for Q and A with the 3 person panel. This allowed about 3 questions, none of which could be clearly heard.

The main discussion, limited as it was, centered on the question of whether or not Muslim moderates exist, and in what percentages. This devolved into a rambling monologue on polling in Muslim countries by panelist Ariel Cohen.

All in all it's just as well that this program aired in the middle of the night. Disappointing.
