Sen. Russell Feingold (D-WI) charged yesterday that Attorney General Alberto Gonzales misled the Senate during his confirmation hearing a year ago when he dodged a question about whether the president could authorize warrantless wiretapping of U.S. citizens.
In a letter to Gonzales, Feingold demanded to know why Gonzales dismissed the senator's question about warrantless eavesdropping as a "hypothetical situation" during a Senate Judiciary Committee
hearing in January, 2005.
Readers may recall that JABBS
asked a similar question last month.
The question remains: Given
his role in circumventing the
Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act,
did Gonzales commit perjury during his confirmation hearing?
