"Last night I was on Bill Maher's HBO
show "Real Time". There have always been numerous views of Maher's with
which I agree. But he has become one of the most vocal and extreme
advocates of the view that - while religion generally should be
criticized - Islam is a uniquely threatening and destructive force and
that Muslims are uniquely oppressive and violent... hen I was scheduled
to do the show, I was hoping that the opportunity would arise to debate
these views (or that I could create the opportunity), and last night it
did." Glenn Greenwald

Beautiful takedown! You can really see Maher starting to get petulant and angry because he's being so thoroughly outclassed.
amen, Tristan!
first time i've seen Maher backed into a corner for his own beliefs.
I remember Mos Def speaking his mind too here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRRrZINRrO4
but it was about time it happened again, I haven't been able to take Bill Maher seriously after his unquestioning stance on the official version of 9/11 and haven't watched a full show of him since.
