It has not been clarified as to whether the information was still classified when the leak happened or not. Declassification does have to take place BEFORE information can be released.

Not true. The President can declassify ANYTHING on his word alone. Also, one of our own FReepers, ravingnutter, has shown that this document was declassified in October of 2002, a full eight months before this supposed "leak."

I am afraid that Bush and buddies may have been caught on this one -- they sure are avoiding a plausible explanation to date...we continue to await their response.

I'm afraid that you're dead wrong, and you have your explanation.

" Bush and buddies "

Why does this phrase which was made popular at DU keep appearing on FR these days?
