When a Leak isn't a Leak

From CNN: "The White House on Friday rejected suggestions that President Bush contradicted himself by repeatedly railing against leaks of classified information even though he had approved the release of classified information..."

When I read this sentence it made my brain hurt. I guess it depends on the what the definition of is is - I mean what the definition of leak is.

And then I read this: "The information was released on July 8, 2003, according to the documents. On July 18 of that year, McClellan told reporters "this information was just, as of today, officially declassified."

Would someone please please please introduce GW to Monica Lewinsky.
