Gonzo: lied under oath again!

Gonzales claimed that Ashcroft was not being pressured about warrantless wiretapping when Gonzales and Comey visited Ashcroft in the hospital, but rather "other intelligence activities".

According to Sen. Jay Rockefeller who was a ranking Democrat on the Senate intelligence committee at the time, there was only one intelligence program, the NSA program. Rep.Jane Harman basically made the same point, there was only one NSA program.

Sounds like Gonzo lied under oath about the Comey testimony. Comey was not lying when he testified abut the occurrence at Ashcroft's hospital room, Gonzo was trying desperately get Ashcroft to go along with illegal warrentless wiretapping.

So there is no need to speculate about "other programs", let's stick with what we know. We know that Gonzo tried to take advantage of a very sick John Ashcroft by pressuring him into signing away our privacy, via warrentless wiretapping with no court oversight.

We also now have another solid, confirmed Gonzo lie, under oath!

I guess this is what the GOP considers strong and accountable leadership. An attorney general who can not speak a sentence without committing perjury!!!

In another hysterical moment from the testimony yesterday, Schumer tears into Gonzo's lies
