It was one of at least half a dozen reports of legal or procedural violations that Gonzales received in the three months before he made his statement to the Senate intelligence committee, according to internal FBI documents released under the Freedom of Information Act.

Looks like lying to Congress and perjury to me, but that'd just be political. Sort of like feeding Congress a pile of crap so they'll do what you tell them to do. Time to find someone to indict the AG.
