Bush is trying to plug leaks from Congress to the media. His attempt to plug the leaks -- including a memo addressed only to Cabinet department heads -- was leaked to CNN.
Beware Irony, for she carries Big Anvils.
(Of course, he intended for that memo to be leaked. Cabinet heads themselves are not known for their inability to keep secrets; he was sending a rather pointed message to Congress. You'd think he'd choose a better way to say, "Don't leak important information" other than leaking important information, though.)
