"A new poll reconfirms an old stereotype: Ivy League professors have a narrow ideological outlook that is out of sync with most Americans. More than 80% who voted in the 2000 election picked Gore and just 9% voted for George W. Bush, according to a new poll conducted by Luntz Research Company. . . . Asked to name the best president of the past 40 years, their top choice was Bill Clinton, at 26%. Another 45% named Kennedy, Johnson, or Carter. Eight percent chose a Republican. None named George W. Bush. Forty percent support slavery reparations for blacks, versus 11% of the general public. Some 74% strongly oppose a national missile defense system -- compared to 70% of the public in favor of it."-- "Ivy League No Bush league, Professors Out in Left Field," Conservative Forum, Human Events, January 21, 2002, page 19.

"Do you know that there are 15,000 Muslims serving in the U.S. armed forces? Are you aware that the U.S. military has Muslim Imams? Following Sept. 11, Capt. Abd Al-Rasheed Muhammad, Imam of Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., asked the North American Islamic Jurisprudence Council if it is permissible for Muslim troops in the U.S. military to fight other Muslims in the war against terrorism. The council referred the matter to Muslim clerics abroad, who issued a Fatwa permitting U.S. Muslims to fight if there was 'no alternative.' Whew! The chain of command of the U.S. military remained intact. But not for long.
