The poetry of d.h. rumsfeld
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

Beautiful!
I've really been enjoying the radio interviews with Rowan Scarbourough (sp?)
about his new book "Rumsfeld's War".

Owes a little something to e.e. cummings, does it not? (namely, the lack of capitalisation) :-)
