British columnist/activist George Monbiot put on his hunting hood and went off to the Hay Festival to make a picture perfect citizen’s arrest of John Bolton. All of his hype notwitstanding, the Guardian columnist was stopped by security and given the proverbial bum’s rush.
Bloggers went into overdrive with insults for the sanctimonious Guardian “journalist”.
“Mr. Monbiot shuld be grateful it is not against the law to be an idiot. If it were, Mr. Monbiot would get the death penalty,” wrote one.
Even after being stopped by two security guards, Mr. Monbiot tried running to catch up to Mr. Bolton but failed.
Among all of his self-touted attributes, Mr. Monbiot is above all a publicity hound.
He was undoubtedly looking for attention when he showed up at the Hay Festival with handcuffs ready for Mr. Bolton. He found it: The question, “Shouldn’t it be Mr. Moonbat, not Mr. Monbiot?” posed by one blogger, will follow him the rest of his days. s
Forever more George Monbiot will be the iconic “King of the Moonbats”.
Code Pinkers are already cheering from across the pond.
