These are some of my favorites.

Consumer-Advocate Ralph Nader
Millionare-Heiress Patty Hearst
Buffoon-President Idi Amin

I used to know more, but I forgot them.  The problem was my brain filled up
and I didn't have any room left, so things started getting overwritten.  For
example:  I was trying to think of the name of a tennis player the other day,
but when I went to that part of my brain, I found that it had been wiped out
by some stuff about Sandinistas I had read a few days earlier.

I had intended to say "Ivan Lendl won the U.S. Open," but it came out,
"Daniel Ortega is the president of Nicaragua."  This proved to be very
embarrassing, as I was covering a Republican fund-raiser for The National
Review at the time.  I think they make an amino acid that can help.  It's
called Guavara or something.
