I find this man to be rude and off-putting. But to be fair I picked up this book because perhaps it was just his brusque manner, and not his actual ideas, that I found offensive. But nope; it's just him. Regardless of the medium in which he's presented, he's just a jerk.

After I read this, I realized where Bill O'Reilly comes from philosophically. It was easy to see why he believes what he does - agree or not.

An interesting collection of interviews and thoughts from America's most popular cable news personality.

Good book and a easy read, however he is a wishy washy, opinionated bugger who seems like he would side with the common man but really doesnt know his head from a hole in the wall!!!

Very easy to read. If you like Bill O'Reilly, you'll love this book. Each chapter is it's own topic. He provides interviews he's had with some fairly powerful people, after which he discusses the conversation and adds his "opinion" on the topic.

Like I mentioned about his other book, I don't agree with all his positions, but O'Reilly provides good arguments. That's all he wants from his guests. Answer questions with facts, no spin. Let the viewer decide.
Among the people featured in the book are Al Sharpton, Dr. Laura, Sean "Puffy" Combs, Susan Sarandon, John McCain, George W. Bush, James Carville, Mario Cuomo, and Dan Rather. All these people O'Reilly points out that he admires for their proactiveness and willingness to come on his show and answer tough questions. The Reverend Sharpton actually admits that Bill was right on a subject. Although he admits this after the camera is off.

The topics include drugs, sex and violence as it pertains to kids, the media, Hollywood, the Mexican border, law enforcement, taxes, capital punishment, Jesse Jackson, and Bill Clinton.

Thought provoking and easy to read. I finished this book in two days. I've modified my views on some issues and fortified my views on others.

What a crock of spin.
