The President wasn't in the Situation Room the day Clarke claims that happened.

I heard someone interviewed today that worked under Clarke.I can't recall which cable program,He heard the question Bush asked(I did not know of the timeline discrepancy) and declined to answer if Clarke was unduly "pressured" though pressured to do so.
The President asking the question was a responsible thing to do,Clarke's framing it as an unspoken command is quite another.I don't believe Clarke's underling thought undue pressure was implied by the President just by reading the man's demeanor.
