This is basic history.

<<< When questioned during the Iran-Contra hearings, Powell grudgingly gave testimony that has been described as contradictory, "limited," and "misleading." At one point in a sworn deposition he said that Weinberger did not keep a diary, but in a sworn affidavit five years later Powell said that his boss had indeed kept a diary at the time. >>>

Granted, he wasn't lying about something important, like sex with an intern. It merely concerned global military maneuvers with known terrorists, involving national security implications. And he wasn't lying to anyone important, just the representatives of the people of the United States.

A little more background into the skeletons in Powell's closet:
