Townhall's Mary Katharine Ham dabbles in a little amateur moonbat research. One quibble with the analysis - her enthusiastic identification of the "wrinkled brow of moral indignation" on one of her subjects may in fact merely be a "boy, it's friggin' bright out here." Rookie mistake.

Q: Now, what does this Protester's expression say to you?

A. "EXXPOSE EXXON!"

B. "Daddy, please love me. Why won't you love me? Please?"

C. "My friends say that I look just like my dog, 'Princess!' She doesn't want to live in a polluted world either."

Princess

D. "I really, really, really need to use the bathroom, but I refuse to utilize the facilities of this evil gas station, local outpost of the sinister Exxon corporation and purveyor of noxious Gaia-raping filth. Plus, it's like really gross in there - I think some bum peed all over the seat."

Answer below the fold:

A: What do I look like, a mind-reader? It's just a photo, for Pete's sake.

I'm only a man.

Thought I posted this before:
E. Now maybe that cute guy will finally notice me, and what is he doing with that tramp anyhow, she's so slutty. When's daddy going to send me my check? I hope that no one finds out it comes from Exxon stock dividends.

You know, if they were really gung-ho about the whole protesting business, they would be "exxposing" something...more...

They don't look half-bad, either, unlike the normal..."exxposed" protestor...

I dunno, to me it looks more like, "Get me out of here-- my mom dragged me off to this lousy protest and made me hold this sign!"

That's a shame. She'd be a pretty girl if she wasn't such a freakin' mope. Buck up, Sad Sack!

Someone, on some blog, had a theory that your movement was going places if there were "protest babes" like in Lebabon and Ukraine, and wasn't if you didn't, like most American protests.

Thats PJ O'Rourke who came up with the 'Protest Babe' theory

Foster's right, but Instapundit, and Bill Quick were carrying on about it a while ago if I remeber correctly.

The protest babe theory applies to fun-loving, vivacious women, like the babes photographed in the Beirut demonstrations or happy hippie chicks. Mopey dopes who happen to be cute do not count.
