OK, got it

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., speaking today about what may or may not occur in the secret CIA prisons in eastern Europe and elsewhere: "I am not concerned about what goes on."

Frist on an unnamed source's disclosure of those prisons' existence to The Washington Post: "My concern is with leaks of information that jeopardize your safety and security, period."

Frist on the Bush administration's 2003 leak of the name of Valerie Plame, a CIA operative who monitored the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction: The Senate won't investigate.
