CMB: Adding attack bonus twice? (CMB needs editing.)

Your CMB is equal to BAB + Strength modifier + special size modifier.

According to the rules...

So, you're making a normal attack roll and adding your CMB to it--in essence, you're adding twice your attack bonus to it, at least according to the rules-as-written. (Unless I'm missing something...)

The wording on this needs to be cleaned up.

That's the way I read it too. I don't see any ambiguity.
