Are they still there? An American biography is worthless compared to the original French records: hospital records, treating doctor records, coroner's records, police report, insurance records. Did a team of operatives raid the archives and steal them, the way daddy Bush's teams "disappeared" the National Guard records of the Shrub? If that's the case, then this is a completely fresh issue of today regarding dirty, underhanded tactics of the current Republican candidate and it might even provoke an international incident regarding behavior towards foreign records.

By the way, I own a 1969 DS 21. It's true that the car wasn't designed for six passengers, and in front, three adults sitting in a row would hinder the driver. Also, it's an unusual car for someone not familiar with it. If Romney was driving the Citromatic model, you have to shift gears on the steering column but there's no clutch. The car has extremely strong and sensitive brakes (enormous brake discs) and if you hit the brake pedal thinking it's the clutch, it can cause a problem.

Like so many other things, it has been ignored by the mainstream media TroyD Oct 2012 #1
