Current leads voltage by 90 what, platypuses, bananas, degrees?
Assuming you meant degrees: current will lead voltage by 90 degrees in a purely capacitive circuit. In an RC circuit with 2000 ohms and 0.001F (assuming you meant ohms and farads, and not stones and furlongs), that is not the case.
How good are you with complex numbers? This is all much easier to understand in the complex domain, in terms of phasors and complex impedance.
Given that a capacitor's impedance is 1/j(2*pi*f*C), a series RC circuit's impedance, Z, would equal R-j/(2*pi*f*C), with R being Resistance, f being Frequency, C being Capacitance, all units in SI, and j denoting the imaginary unit.
You may then calculate current, I=V/Z, which will yield a complex number, with a magnitude and an angle (a phasor). With this, you can see why, in a purely capacitive circuit, current leads voltage by 90 degrees, and, conversely, why that phase angle isn't 90 degrees if there is a resistive component.
