[brahmburgers]

....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.

ANOTHER TRUE STORY FROM THE W. BUSH ADMINISTRATION.....

Back in the year 2,000, when George W was making a run for the Presidency, he appointed Dick Cheney (from W's dad's administration) to form a committee to find out who would make the absolute best candidate to run as Vice President on 'the ticket.' Mr. Cheney and his committee interviewed dozens of bright candidates and, after weeks of intense scrutiny, Cheney reported to George W. "George," he said, "We've come up with the best possible candidate."

Mr. Bush replied, "yes, well tell me who it is."

"Me."
