Simply because you don't agree with my emphases doesn't give you the right to slur me.
Here is a news flash: people lie to themselves all the time. When they do, they don't always know that they're doing it. I'm not familiar with the gunshots you refer to but it might well be a case of someone believing something false. I just don't know. To declare that "no, she knew, she's a pathological liar" - that is a slur and I don't appreciate you slurring her.
I don't think Aurora suggesting that there may be some unresolved internal conflict in you regarding women seeking power is any kind of slur. It is a very natural thing to consider when trying to understand one another.
Upon further reflection ..
.. perhaps it is possible to see why people would think Hillary sucks, or at least plays fast and easy with the truth. I guess this says more about how closely I follow political news than anything else. So I apologize for my false equivalency in the slurring department. Yeah, it would be nice to have someone to vote for we could like more as people. Of course I'll still vote for her and hope for incremental improvement or at least less back sliding, but what if we could vote for E. Warren ...
