...Bill Clinton had the foresight to call this sort of presidential crippling the "Third Way" and thus make it seem like at least some of the rampant legislative triangulation of his first term was his idea. Bush used to talk about "compassionate conservatism" while he was calling the shots - now that Jim Jeffords is gone, Bush has shrunk into just one Republican part of the third leg of the right-left-center negotiating triangle...
...bless the nuns of the Order of the School Sisters of Notre Dame for having the foresight and brains (available for study) to help us aging baby boomers better understand the devastating illness of Alzheimer's [HEALTH, May 14].

Perhaps the HPT team should have had the foresight to add a large bear perched on an onion dome and holding a sign "THIS IS RUSSIA" to drive the point home to its less-enlightened viewers. Moreover, the link The Crimson draws between "middle-eastern" and "terrorists" is--in the absence of bombs, violence or anything other than innocent dancing--nothing short of racist...
