It's hard to find what you're talking about when you don't give cites, but I assume you mean this:

Aides for the House Judiciary Committee say members have launched an investigation into whether Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. lied under oath during congressional testimony on May 15.
The lawmakers are looking at one statement in particular, The Hill reported. While trading remarks with Rep. Henry C. “Hank” Johnson Jr., Georgia Democrat, Mr. Holder said, “In regard to potential prosecution of the press for the disclosure of material — this is not something I’ve ever been involved in, heard of, or would think would be wise policy,” The Hill said.

"Prosecution" and "wiretaps" are two different things. "Prosecution" means going to court and filing a criminal complaint against someone. That hasn't happened. What did happen is that Holder investigated a journalist to find the source of a leak coming from the government. It's bad enough, in my opinion. No need to make up bogus accusations. There was no perjury.
