Gone, but not forgotten

Our good friend Donny Rummy may have left the U.S. administration, but his linguistic legacy lives on, thanks to the BBC.
Here's a link to their audio library of quotations Donald has graced us with over the years.

I can't help but see the parallels between his verbal mess concerning "knowns" and Chretien's explanation of "the proof" (how could we ever forget that?!):

Rummy: "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."
(this quote won the "Foot in Mouth" award from the British Plain English Campaign in 2003)

JC: "No, a proof is a proof. What kind of a proof? It's a proof. A proof is a proof, and when you have a good proof, it's because it's proven."
