"Manhattan Project? Never heard of it."

I think we both know that a President lying to the public for legitimate national security purposes is a whole different kettle of fish, although there have certainly been cases where the line was not that clearly drawn.

I don't know if there has ever been a case where a President has committed perjury for legitimate national security reasons. Doubt it.
