Being put under oath doesn't technically matter when it comes to Congress, under Title 18, Part I, Chapter 47, Section 1001 it is a crime to lie to them, with fines and a 5-year prison sentence as punishment. I don't' believe this law has ever been invoked though, at least not in recent times.

They let the time run out on Clapper's lies under oath. I think the time on Brennan's runs out soon if it hasn't already.
It's all theater.
