Huh?

Hello my dear friends. Today I saw a bumper sticker that read "Made in America is Important", unfortunately for the profit who displayed it, it was on the back of a Hyundai.  Earlier this week Vice President Joe Biden proudly announced that the New York Giants were going to the Superbowl! He was soundly booed. Why? He was at a dinner in San Francisco at the time.  We all misspeak at one time or another (in the case of the VP it's more of the rule than the exception) but sometimes you just have to sit back and wonder what they were thinking.  It would be hard to forget then presidential hopeful Al Gore touting how he took the initiative to create the internet! Obviously, that's not what he meant, but it is what he said.  Here is a list of famous foot in mouth moments, as compiled by godlikeproductions.com
"Whenever I watch TV and see those poor starving kids all over the world, I can't help but cry. I mean I'd love to be skinny like that, but not with all those flies and death and stuff." --Mariah Carey

"Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life," --Brooke Shields, during an interview to become Spokesperson for federal anti-smoking campaign.

"I've never had major knee surgery on any other part of my body," --Winston Bennett, University of Kentucky basketball forward.

"Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country," --Mayor Marion Barry, Washington, DC.

"I'm not going to have some reporters pawing through our papers. We are the president." --Hillary Clinton commenting on the release of subpoenaed documents.

"Half this game is ninety percent mental." --Philadelphia Phillies manager, Danny Ozark

"It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it." --Al Gore, Vice President

"I love California. I practically grew up in Phoenix." --Dan Quayle

"If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure." --Bill Clinton, President
