AP, WTF?

CNN reports (actually an AP story) here on Bush saying that he will make his Supreme Court nomination in a timely manner. Bush is quoted

"I have directed my staff, in cooperation with the Department of Justice, to compile information and recommend for my review potential nominees who meet a high standard of legal ability, judgment and integrity, and who will faithfully interpret the Constitution and laws of our country," he said.

Fine, but then there's this a couple paragraphs later, all by itself, at the very end of the article

Bush said he would recommend a replacement who will "faithfully interpret" the laws.

WTF?? Is that some sort of a dig at Bush? Is the AP reporter just stupid and likes to repeat himself? What gives?
