Perjury or an Honest Mistake Under Oath - You Be the Judge

According to the AP & CBS News:

John Bolton, President Bush's nominee for U.N. ambassador, mistakenly told Congress he had not been interviewed or testified in any investigation over the past five years, the State Department said Thursday.

Bolton was interviewed by the State Department inspector general in 2003 as part of a joint investigation with the Central Intelligence Agency into prewar Iraqi attempts to buy nuclear materials from Niger, State Department spokesman Noel Clay said.

I'm sure it's just an innocent mistake. I know I can't remember the last time I testified in an official investigation, how about you?

Memory lapses are a common problem with Republican nominees. Just a few days ago, the Washington Post reported that John Roberts is having trouble remembering being on the Federalist Society Steering committee.
