...Marginally more professional was ?Fahrenhype 9/11,? narrated by ex-Leftie haranguer Ron Silver and co-written by tabloid scandal-magnet Dick Morris.

But the challenging college-level course is just one small serving on an academic plate that he has heaped with five additional AP courses, including AP French, AP English Literature and AP Art History.
