“Cindy Sheehan has blamed the media for retarding the peace movement in the United States. But according to “The Babe Theory of Political Movements,” which Sheehan should study closely, the peace movement has a problem: it’s ugly. The media doesn’t forgive ugly. If Sheehan wants to give peace a chance, she’ll need to give it a makeover. A disheveled woman with leathery skin and a dopey inflection is not going to get the attention she craves.”
The excerpt is from my new FrontPageMagazine column, Give Peace A Makeover. Comments are welcome.
Thanks to Frank for sending a link to “Breasts Not Bombs.” The pictorial is a study in how truly ugly the antiwar Left is, body and mind. To assault others with such impropriety strikes me as passive-aggression. Warning: You’ll need multiple barf bags.
