I <EM>swear</EM> a few years ago somebody published a book called The Tao of Rumsfeld, although it doesn't come up on Amazon.com, even as being out of print. Here are a few good ones:<BR/><BR/>"I would not say that the future is necessarily less predictable than the past. I think the past was not predictable when it started."<BR/><BR/>"[Osama Bin Laden is] either alive and well or alive and not too well or not alive." <BR/><BR/>"I believe what I said yesterday. I don't know what I said, but I know what I think, and, well, I assume it's what I said."<BR/><BR/>"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."<BR/><BR/>"I don't know what the facts are but somebody's certainly going to sit down with him and find out what he knows that they may not know, and make sure he knows what they know that he may not know."<BR/><BR/><EM>And my favorite...</EM><BR/><BR/>"Learn to say 'I don't know.' If used when appropriate, it will be often."adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01020701980607126113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6753820.post-4489535752043814782007-06-20T15:39:00.000-04:002007-06-20T15:39:00.000-04:00Heh, well -- I thought the site could use some com...Heh, well -- I thought the site could use some comic relief. Sorry for the light blogging -- I'm busy preparing for TransVision 07 -- but that should yield some good posts in the future.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>GeorgeGeorgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13003484633933455827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6753820.post-8643282127850251102007-06-20T15:34:00.000-04:002007-06-20T15:34:00.000-04:00A slow news day - eh, George?
