People on the right slammed her for voicing a political opinion, an act, they said, that was inconsistent with proper judicial temperament.
In the end, she publicly expressed regret for the comment.
Now, many of the same right-wingers are cheering on Judge BK for his ranting, ugly-crying screed on so-called Dem conspiracies against him to avenge the Clintons.

It's OK When Republicans Do It.
Yep, it's their ingrained sense of entitlement, privilege, and birthright that was at the heart of BK's screed. He was owed a SCOTUS seat, while RGB is just an affirmative action girl lawyer who should just shut up and be grateful to have the job.
