Search module does not return results if noise words are included in search phrase

If a search is done that includes a "noise" word - no results are returned.

For example. I have a page that includes the following sentence:

"We are committed to the education of clients and the..." etc.

If I search for: committed education clients
The page is returned in the results.

If I search for: committed to the education of clients
The search yielded no results!!!

I have the following noise word list:

the, and, a, to, of, in, i, is, that, it, on, you, this, for, but, with, are, have, be, at, or, as, was, so, if, out, not

I have tested searches that should yield results with and without each and every one of these words. The result is always the same. If one of the noise words is included in the search - no results are returned.
