in his single-minded unchanging ways, Bush is destroying America. There is a `Preponderance of Evidence' that Bush is guilty: Woodward's book, combined with the O'Neill and Clarke accounts, ``is not going to help the president's credibility,'' said Lawrence Korb, a former assistant secretary of defense under President Ronald Reagan. ``It's pretending to do one thing and doing another,'' Korb said in an interview yesterday. ``If you look at the preponderance of evidence, it becomes pretty clear'' that Bush was focused on Iraq after the Sept. 11 attacks, Korb said. Bush, 57, said yesterday he didn't recall whether he ordered Rumsfeld to draw up war plans two months after the Sept. 11 attacks. ``I can't remember exact dates that far back,'' Bush told reporters yesterday after talks at the White House with British Prime Minister Tony Blair, his chief Iraq ally. ``But I do know that it was Afghanistan that was on my mind. And I didn't really start focusing on Iraq until later on.'' The White House declined to comment today on Woodward's book, which is being published by Viacom Inc.'s Simon & Schuster. quote.bloomberg.com
