Arthur Chrenkoff looks at the top 12 dumbest tsunami quotes--so far.

I'm surprised that this one from September didn't get an honorable mention as a sneak preview of what was to come 'round Christmastime from the chattering classes.

Update: I had been meaning to link to this recent Frank Martin story where he sternly rebuts a colleague who said, "See, this is why George Bush is so dumb, there's a disaster in the world and he sends an Aircraft Carrier..."

Since Frank explains in detail why that's such an idiotic statement, this post seems like a good place to mention it.
