#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
I got lost after the 3rd "know"

He's just saying that there are things we know that we know, there are things we know that we don't know, and there are things we don't know that we don't know. It can't be any clearer than that.

But how can we know? If we don't know about the unknowns then we don't know. Ya' know?

So we don't know everything :D
Speak for yourself - For I know everything.
Some of those quotes are probably taken out of context. I think that there are probably many dumber quotes that politiions have made. You can fill volumes with the stupid stuff that GWB says.
