Too bad you didn't do a better job of identifying falsehoods that were actually lies. You need to combine a false statement with an intent to make that false statement. If it is just wrong (incompetence not being the only reason people can be wrong) then it is not a lie. If they intended to mislead people on another statement but then said things that were true that is not a lie either - that sadly is spin. (when they tell the truth but people come away with a warped perception anyway)
