A statement must pass some tests to qualify as lying. First the statement must be a false representation of fact. In addition and more importantly, the statement can't be merely that someone was mistaken about the facts when they uttered the statement, they must have known it was false at the time. Finally, to label a statement a lie, the accuser must know for a fact that the intent to deceive was clear and present in the heart of the speaker(s). You have not provided a substantial link between the speaker(s) you accuse and the act of lying, that would pass the above tests. You have provided defamatory statements and representations that convey an unjustly unfavorable impression of the persons you allege to have lied. You have done so repeatedly, often, and over a long period of time. You seem to be filtering this impelling filament of stern condemnation through your selective L/R wing perspective. This gives rise to the suspicion that it is being done for the sake of some alterior agenda. False allegation is every bit as evil as committing any other kind of act designed to deceive one's fellow human beings and in most cases, much more damaging...tsk
