In Bush's own words, as quoted by his hagiographer, Woodward
And quoted by Clarke:
So, what's the difference? Oh, I get it! Woodward's book was hagiography; Clarke's is not.
Clarke, a 30-year White House veteran who served under Presidents Reagan, George H.W. Bush and Clinton before the current president, referred to Bush's own comments to Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward, author of "Bush at War," in which the president said he "didn't have a sense of urgency" about Osama bin Laden or al Qaeda.
"He is saying that," Clarke said. "President Bush said that to Bob Woodward. I'm not the first one to say this."
