Author knows about secrecy

To the editor:

I see we have another expose of the Bush White House on the way. The latest best seller-to-be is by none other than John Dean. Remember him? He was President Nixon's counsel who served time for his role in Watergate. The book, to be released later this week, is "The Secret Presidency of George W. Bush." Dean, of all people, should know about secrecy. But with his record I wonder how much of it we can believe. I would certainly question his sincerity and his ability to tell the truth.
