...weeks later, Lindh heard about the events of Sept. 11 on the radio. "According to [Lindh]," an FBI affidavit says, "it was his and his comrades' understanding at the time that bin Laden had ordered the attacks and that additional attacks would follow." That didn't seem to bother Lindh, who continued fighting with the Taliban for weeks, until U.S. bombs forced him and many Taliban to surrender.

The poll shows that most Americans give Bush high marks indeed for his handling of the war and the terror threat. But when it comes to domestic issues--the economy, health care, the budget deficit--his grades are middling, and Enron is reviving some of Bush's least favorite issues, such...
...when Penn reeled off 14 unanswered points to take a six point lead in the second half, the Crimson didn’t let that bother them in the least. In fact, they hardly even realized...
