Perhaps you thought Mitt Romney's time in France, in 1968, while raking in Dick Cheney-level numbers of military deferments from serving in Vietnam, was all sunshine and brie. Well CNN's "Romney Revealed" has another think coming at you! “In 1968, France was a dangerous place to be for a 21-year-old American, but Mitt Romney was right in the middle of it," says Gloria Borger. You guys, there were "protests, and there were marches"! There weren't napalmings or burning villages or fraggings or snipers, but there were
Oh for fuck's sake. These people. Et fucking cetera:
For most of 1968, Mitt lived in the Mission Home, a 19th century neoclassical building in the chic 16th arrondissement of Paris. &ldquo;It was a house built by and for rich people,&rdquo; said Richard Anderson, the son of the mission president at the time of Mr Romney&rsquo;s stay. &ldquo;I would describe it as a palace&rdquo;.

I&#039;m sure he had equally spectacular success convincing them not to drink their Burgundies, Bordeaux, and Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Might as well be proselytizing in a Dublin pub.

Mittens has always been a buzzkill. All that pre-AIDS French tail walking around in miniskirts, and he&#039;s telling women to go to church? Wasted opportunity dude.
Drive, badly.
