i was against the leak before i was for the leak

Guardian Unlimited |Bush Says He Declassified Pre-War Intel: "``I wanted people to see the truth and thought it made sense for people to see the truth,'' Bush said during an appearance at Johns Hopkins University's Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies.

``You're not supposed to talk about classified information, and so I declassified the document,'' he said in a question-and-answer session after delivering a speech on Iraq. ``I thought it was important for people to get a better sense for why I was saying what I was saying in my speeches. And I felt I could do so without jeopardizing ongoing intelligence matters, and so I did.''"

So why did't he say that he was the source if it has him.

say another way ...
'i lied about it
because i wanted the people to see the truth
about evidence that has since proved to bogus'
