List your famous last words related to politics, issues, and current events.

“Let me repeat that there is no radiation leak, nor will there be a leak.”
Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano, on the evening of the earthquake & tsunami at Fukishima.

Bernanke, 2007
"At this juncture . . . the impact on the broader economy and financial markets of the problems in the subprime markets seems likely to be contained,".
