Actually, if the president authorizes the release of information, it can NO LONGER be called a leak. :D Maybe it can be called an unofficial press release? He IS the commander in chief, mr senator.

let me guess. I bet he leaked the info by stuffing his socks and underwear and then remembering when he left the building. Honest mistake-happens all the time to me, too!

Never believe anything Jay "Left-wing" Rockefeller says. He is the attack dog for the DNC and since most of the GOP Senators are WIMPS no one will dispute what he says. He and Bob Graham (FL) were two of the first to criticize President Bush when they have been sitting on the Committee for many, many years and have done nothing but try and destroy the United States Intelligence Community.
