Dumb and dumbest

The 10 dumbest quotes from 2003:
2. Reports that say that something hasn’t happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns — the ones we don’t know we don’t know.” —Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld
This could not have been an easy list to compile, what with the absolute plethora of material to work with this year.
(The thing that gets me about that Rumsfeld quote: it’s actually logical. It’s insane, but it also makes sense. The man is either a linguistic genius to have spun that out off the top of his head, or he’s stark raving mad).
