Rumsfeld ramble wins "Foot in Mouth" award
LONDON (Reuters) - U.S. Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld has been awarded the "Foot in Mouth" prize by the Plain English Campaign.
"Reports that say something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know," Rumsfeld told a press briefing.
"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."
Rumsfeld took the prize ahead of Arnold Schwarzenegger."I think that gay marriage is something that should be between a man and a woman," was the odd statement from the new California Governor.

yeah, but the scary thing is, I totally understand Rumsfeld.
I understand him, and dont find him that smart of a person. Too bad for Bush.
I like the picture. Looks like he's throwing gang signs. WESTSIDE! "Don't hate the playa, hate the game," Rumsfeld told a press briefing.
Arnold said that????? Geeze!
He ought to get a foot up his lying ass.
Heh heh - I think it shoulda been a three way tie - Bush, Rumsfeld and Governator.
