The BBC never letting go

When Donald Rumsfeld made 'that' speech in 2006 which included the passage

'There are known knowns; these are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns; that is to say, there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns; there are things we do not know we don't know.'

The left had hysterics, 'this man is an idiot they screamed', 'what gibberish he talks'.

Of course what Donald Rumsfeld was saying was not gibberish but good sense; I presume the speech-writer thought it was some clever wordplay. Donald Rumsfeld was explaining that there are things we know, things we know exist but do not know all about and things about which we have no idea.

The left-wing media has no interest in facts just in making fun of politicians with whom they disagree, so to this day any opportunity to make fun of Donald Rumsfeld. In this week's Weekly World Quiz the BBC include this question:

'Excerpts from the autobiography of ex-Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld have been leaked. In it, he admits having chosen some words badly. Which of the following is NOT by Mr Rumsfeld?
1. "Stuff happens"
2. "Old Europe"
3. "Extremist group of folks"'

And here is the results scoring screen:

They just cannot let go.
FYI,  I got the Brazilian question wrong.


Here is Donald Rumsfeld making that speech, judge for yourself - does he make sense?
