I would disagree, Donald Rumsfeld got a lot of flack for his unknown unknowns speech, all the criticism of that particular speech that I have read illustrates one (or both of two things)

1. that the critic was already a critic of the Bush administration
2. that the idea that a politician might choose to convey a complex idea clearly but in appropriately complex language was foreign to them.

Jonathan may have a different view of the Rumsfeld speech from myself of course, but I saw it as clear and logical. Jonathans use of similar ideas is, in my view equally clear and logical. Received on Thu Mar 24 2005 - 08:11:47 CST
