Sometimes they are released to reporters or others in an unauthorized way. This is called a “leak.” Rarely does the “leaker” want to hurt his nation (though he or she could, unknowingly or intentionally). Often the leaker is trying to support a political position, policy or party.
The subject of most of this week’s discussions is an NIE prepared last April that has some words in it about Iraq and the war on terror. More on that in a moment.

DNC alone brings us down by at least 30 points.
