Declining to answer is a sure giveaway of the answer in an open hearing ;) I suspect there's a number of situations where lying to Congress is not a crime. The "Gang of 8" and the "Gang of 4" are almost always aware of the truth, usually the entire intelligence committees. Members of Congress are not automatically trusted with the deepest national secrets just because they are elected.
