Again - there is no story here.
The "claim" is that Libby perjured himself. I confess I don't understand how this declassification stuff relates to the claim.

The "story" is that Bush, while on the one hand complaining about leaks, is on the other hand declassifying national-security information in order to feed it to sympathetic journalists. It both exposes the way his admininistration is abusing the classification of sensitive information, and (again) reflects the sort of deception that got us into the war.
