best quotable person ever
I think many dutch will find its Johan Cruijff.
He can make so much sence by not making sence and his oneliners are superb.
example:
Every disadvantage has its advantage
or
Italians cannot beat you but you sure can loose from then.
its a bit hard to translate them into english, but some ppl just have the gift to make the best quotes ever, and JC is one of them

Clearly Mohammed Said Al-Sahaf is the winner.

Depends what you mean by "best quotable".
Most often quoted? Person with the most to say? Quotes with most meaning?
I figure Shakespeare has to come high on the list. And Gary Glitter. Maybe Jesus too.

Nobody beats Dubya for quotes...
My two favourites...
Interviewer: So, who is President of India?
Bush: I only need to know his top army general.
Interviewer: So what's the general's name?
Bush: I don't know.
and...
"The trouble with imports is that they mostly come from outside of the country."

or people who merely hear it once and assume that it is correct. Given the body of evidence that we have which demonstrates "bush says stupid things" It is not entirely suprising that people assume this to be the case.

This was a total cheap shot, and the liberal whore who conducted the interview (I think it might have been from the Boston Globe) should be ashamed for stooping so low.

When someone says "more and more of our imports are coming from overseas", I would assume that is what they meant, rather than thinking "haeahheaheh he thinks imports come from domestic production lol ".

True, true. I heard these quotes years ago when he ran for president. Over time I've forgotten the context and possibly the quotes have been corrupted. But come on... he deserves it!
This is a guy who sat for 10 minutes "reading along" with primary school kids, until he realised the book was upside down. Or when he was intently observing protracted military manouvers, with the LENS CAPS on his binoculars. Wasn't it Bush who said "We're confident that Bin Laden is either alive or dead"?

I thought that binocular thing was a fake. I still agree he's not very smart, but I feel he is getting better at public speeches.

He is only slightly better than a trained monkey.
But we don't let trained monkeys launch ICBMs.

All this anti-Bush bollocks is really petty and arrogant.
