Letter: Bush is dancing around the truth

Monday, June 14, 2004 | 8:41 a.m.

Isn't it amazing that on the same day that our president consulted a lawyer because he will possibly be a witness during a grand jury investigation concerning the leak of Valerie Plame's identity, George Tenet surprised the country and announced his resignation? Talk about a sacrificial lamb.

Bush's approval rating is diving, and the announcement that he is having to round up legal help to answer questions about illegal activities will not help the freefall. So what can they do to get it off the front page? Well, of course, divert the attention to something or someone else.

This administration was so proud of the term "Shock and Awe." However, now it is practicing "Dance and Dodge."
