Let's see if the major media will pick up your comments!

Dear Professor Pipes,

I don't know how you remembered these details of Mohammed Ali's life and declarations of years past...but it is true that when you link them all, one is left wondering why he was awarded the Medal of Freedom..and one is left speechless!

I'd bet that the press at large will not pick up your comments and publish them, since this would throw a damper on this award ( which is largely undeserved when one reads the utterances of Mohammed Ali when he was in his prime and his refusal to serve his country when he was called to do so...)
