The question both verbally and in writing specified an NSA surveillance program, while the email specified a question about collection of people inside the US. (NSA's mission is to collect on targets outside the US) Which is why I don't understand what you mean by lying.

Again, you keep using this word "lie." I do not think it means what you think it means. And as a legal analyst, I would encourage you to be specific when you throw around an accusation like that.

Did he lie about other things? probably. I think he is likely lying about not the Miranda memos. Do I think he doesn't meet the SCOTUS standard? Yes, keep him off the court. But on this narrow issue, based on how Leahy asked & the QFR was phrased, I don't see how its a lie.
