The Upcoming Robot appears to have gotten confused, and merged together two different events. According to the Town Hall Calendar, Arianna Huffington is the only one presenting on Tuesday, May 20 (but not Hossein Omoumi and Madjid Khaladj).

Here is Arianna Huffington's abstract from the Town Hall Calendar listingt:

For Arianna Huffington, the problem with the Republican Party is not that it is at odds with the views of progressives but that it is at odds with the views of the American people. By significant majorities, Americans believe in the science of evolution, don’t want Roe v. Wade overturned, don’t want to ignore global warming, want good health care for their kids, and want to bring our troops home from Iraq. In Right is Wrong, Huffington takes a humorous but hard look at how the right wing fringe has taken over the party and how the media has been "complicit" in the entire endeavor. Arianna Huffington is the cofounder and editor in chief of The Huffington Post, a nationally syndicated columnist, and the author of eleven books. Presented by the Town Hall Center for Civic Life with University Book Store.
