Nope, it makes him someone who has told a lie.
Enquiring minds need to know!

I think it depends on predeliction, anyone can tell a single lie,
however the habitual liar is a different beast. As in most things you
will find a continuum and it will depend on context. I agree that saying
someone is a liar is, with rare exceptions, abusive. However I still
don't agree that saying 'x lies' is as it is simply a description of
behaviour. It would have to include much more in the way of oprobrium to
qualify as abuse. Also by that rubric describing any behaviour in a
specific individual that is not obviously complementary could be seen as
abuse or possibly abusive. If Mark is going to go down this route I
think we will need a glossary of terms.
