"There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know."

--Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, clarifying U.S. policy on the war on terror at a Pentagon briefing.

Haha, that just clears things up -entirely-. Krets, that's priceless.

I'm going to the moon, I cant stand it here anymore.

Sir Humphrey Appleby!!! Anyone who has seen Yes, Minister would have to agree! Thanks for sharing that, krets.

Is it just me or does anyone else think that Rumsfeld is enjoying his job a bit too much?

Bugs: i would be glad if he got another less dangerous job except being the next president... ~shivers~

He left out the unknown knowns. Those are things that we don't know that we know. I couldn't tell you what they are.

What about the known unknown unknown knowns?

The things we know we don't know but by knowing we don't know we unknowingly know.

So... what does the government call stuff that it knows but then lies to the public about?

The truth. Sometimes it's referred to as 'National Security'...

Hehe...

Rumsfeld is an idiot...
