Sir - In recent weeks some skeletons from the business closets of the US president and vice-president have come back to haunt them.
These revelations are particularly relevant at a time when President Bush has been criticising the accounting policies of some major corporations.
I think one might be forgiven for suspecting this is a case of "Do as I say, don't do as I do." Could it be that George "Dubya" Bush's middle initial actually gives us an insight into a characteristic of his politics - in particular, the "dubya" standard? - Yours, etc/.
