Does this seem important to anyone else?
CNN.com story about administration officials reaction (read spin) to the Woodward book contains a nugget I hadn’t seen before:
“In another matter related to the book, the Pentagon Monday was forced to explain Woodward’s charge that in the summer of 2002, Bush approved spending $700 million to prepare for war in Iraq – money that was diverted from an appropriation for the war in Afghanistan – without telling Congress.”
It goes on to say that it looks as though the letter of the law was followed–but I think/hope that’s not the way it’s going to look to people.
