BIG GOVERNMENT IS ALL FUN AND GAMES FOR AN ELITE LEFTIST UNTIL IT IMPACTS THEIR LIFE: CNN commentator compares her TSA ‘vagina chop’ to Donald Trump’s ‘p-grabbing.’

“This certainly looks awful and all and we’ve posted before on the TSA’s ridiculous security theater, but was it really necessary to turn this into something anti-Trump?”, Twitchy asks, adding that CNN’s Angela Rye was apparently “randomly selected for extra screening and that’s when the problem started.”

According to her Wikipedia page,  Rye “is a political commentator on CNN and an NPR political analyst. She served as the executive director and general counsel to the Congressional Black Caucus for the 112th Congress.” She also blogs at the Huffington Post, where in 2013, she wrote a lengthy post headlined, “7 Issues President Obama Must Address During His Second Term.” Curiously, TSA reform and generally downsizing government’s power didn’t appear to be much of a concern. And slagging Trump rather than suggesting that his incoming administration reign in the TSA’s overreach apparently didn’t occur to her as well yesterday, which instantly wrote off the goodwill of many of his voters, who elected him precisely to stop this sort of federal attack on everyday people.

Irving Kristol was famously quoted as saying that a neoconservative is “a liberal who has been mugged by reality. A neoliberal is a liberal who got mugged by reality but has not pressed charges.” Perhaps this incident might cause Rye to rethink her premises regarding Washington’s power, but given the track record of her fellow leftists over the past month, I’m not hopeful. Which is why, unfortunately, given her favorable thoughts on Obama, and her left-leaning C.V., this Libertarian Party ad released at the peak of the Occupy Wall Street blue-0n-blue kabuki seems apropos:
