Bob Woodward's Bush at War contains numerous examples of the White House leaking classified information.
from whatever already!:
"One former senior administration official explained to me: “This was something that the White House wanted done because they considered it good public relations. If there was real damage to national security—if there were leaks that possibly exposed sources and methods, it was not done in this instance for the public good or to expose Watergate type wrongdoing. This was done for presidential image-making and a commercial enterprise—Woodward’s book.”
"
Aren't those just peachy reasons to expose intelligence assets?
