Your cover story on the Bush Administration's efforts to salvage its foreign policy [Feb. 12] provoked musings on what-if scenarios. What if the Bush Administration dealt with the world as it really was, not as the Administration wanted it to be? We would not be in the position we are in today. Tens of thousands of people have been killed in a raging civil war, the international goodwill following 9/11 has been wasted, and we have a huge deficit and a military that is being ground down.

Unfortunately for the Crimson, Princeton—the team that dealt it heartbreaking losses on a 25-foot desperation shot at the buzzer by Kyle Wente at Lavietes Pavilion in 2001, Scott Greenman’s scoring explosion in the second overtime in 2004 at Jadwin, and, just last year, a Noah Savage jumper with 0.2 seconds left that propelled the Tigers to a 60-59 road win and sent Harvard into a tailspin—is never...
