No love for Khatami

Go Mitt:

Governor Mitt Romney denounced Harvard University today for inviting former Iranian President Mohammed Khatami’s to speak at the school on Sept. 10 and ordered all state agencies to boycott the visit by refusing to provide state police escorts and other service typically given to former heads of state.

"State taxpayers should not be providing special treatment to an individual who supports violent jihad and the destruction of Israel," Romney said in a written statement, calling Khatami’s visit a "disgrace" on the eve of the fifth anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.

So, I wonder who is going to provide security for Khatami?

Update: I should have read to the bottom; the State Dept is providing it. Maybe he can have Armitage on site.
