and predictably, Mitt Romney is just outraged about it.
So much so that the Governor has denied state police protection to the former Iranian President whom Romney's pollsters have gleefully branded as a terrorist.
Well, it is the old story once again, Khatami has been on the schedule for a while at the JFK School, but the dictates of kowtowing to out of state wowsers demand that the Viceroy refrain from speaking out until the very last minute.
The denial of state police coverage was a nice churlish touch though, the very essence of stunt driven superficial governance.
Humble Elias could point out that while the governor opportunistically rants and raves for the cameras, the roads and bridges of the Commonwealth fall into disrepair and our public transport systems are groaning under new stresses and strains.
Any one of a number of neglected issues come to mind quite frankly, the list is long and yet Romney ignores them all in his lust for good ink above the fold.
No, forget all that, instead I'll just suggest that Romney is a passive aggressive nerd of the first rank.
I mean, if he really thinks Khatami is a terrorist, then why not have him arrested at Logan?
Do something really daring Mitt...take a real stand like a good little freeper.
Or at least run up to Khatami, kick the guy in the shins and run away bawling like a schoolgirl...
Something, anything but this nerdy spiteful weak-kneed response "Well you can't have staties protecting you SO THERE!!"
Just for the record incomparably worse people have come to this country to speak...Fidel Castro, Nikita Khrushchev (who made all sorts of diresome nuclear threats at the UN), Idi Amin but most of the ass-holes rated police protection...I mean shit even a serial killer gets a bulletproof vest and security detail.
Ahhhh but this is Romney we are talking about, passive aggressive nerds aren't known for their mastery of the grand gesture after all.
