  First of all open the hatch and clean all the dirt and leaves and crap out
  of the top of the hatch opening so it'll drain properly.
  Second, buy a new seal from Germanautoparts for $50.

  > Ummm.... yeah!  Really, though, I don't mind the leak, but am tired of
  having my windows constantly fogged up and since the rear defroster isn't
  working currently... I drove 2 hours to work this morning and was never able
  to see anything behind me.  The question still stands:  where can I get
  seals cheap?  BTW, it's leaking from the top of the hatch, right by the
  third brake light.
