Pie Protest Backfires

I don't know about the rest of you, but I actually like the new pie-in-the-face protest movement. The idea is to target a high-profile person with whom you disagree, give them a pie in the face, and let them discredit themselves with their reaction to the harmless offensive. It is not like the paint-the-furs protesters who ruin expensive posessions. It is just pie. If you bring along a change of clothes and know a local laundramat, you're all set.

William Kristol got pied today, and showed himself for the gentleman and the tough guy that he is. Instead of reacting with anger or rage, the conservative commentator calmly wiped his face, thanked the protester who was grabbed by security, and calmly finished his speech. No harm done, and Mr. Kristol comes out of it all the better... though perhaps his diet was ruined. And the protester? Jeered by the crowd, and suspended pending a disciplinary hearing.
