I'm sure she's not enjoying the comments & questions, but the old canard "If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen" comes to mind.

A "canard" is a deliberate falsehood. The attacks launched by Shumer and Kennedy, implying that Alito is a racist and a bigot, are canards.

Alito is a man of honor, decency, and impeccable integrity. For him to be subjected to this kind of shameful public smearing is beyond the pale. There is no justification for it. None.

*blush* Good thing I'm not teaching English this week. "Old saying" would've been more appropriate then.

There was no justification when Clarence Thomas went through it, either, but not to expect it, especially now when the liberals are obviously afraid of "losing" Roe v. Wade, is IMHO hopelessly naive.
