Good one !

In 1988, then-vice president George
Bush made a (Freudian?) slip during a campaign speech. He said, “We’ve
had triumphs. We’ve made mistakes. We’ve had sex.” He’d meant to say
“setbacks.” After the audience had picked itself up from the floor, Bush
observed, “I feel like the javelin thrower who won the toss and elected to
receive.” On the Nightly News, Connie Chung reported his gaffe—and his
excellent “recovery.”
