Did AG Gonzales lie to Congress yesterday?

Let's look at the Hearings yesterday and see if how badly AG Gonzales lied yesterday.

Here is a set of highlight from the Hearings, put together by Talking Points Memo.

Then Spencer Ackerman provides a discussion of his "missteps" in yesterday's testimony.

One point that AG Gonzales made when discussing his attempt to explain why he was in Ashcroft's hospital room trying to get him to override the decision (even though Ashcroft was under the influence of sedating drugs at the time) of the temporary Attorney General Ashcroft had appointed before he entered the hospital. Gonzales blamed his actions (this time) on a meeting with Congressional leaders (the Gang of Eight) who were anxious to have the classified programming doing spying on Americans without a warrant. Rep. Jane Harmon (CA-D) was a member of the Gang of Eight and claims that Gonzales was lying.
