Just heard a good one on the radio:

A Pentagon staffer, complaining that efforts to reform the military have been too timid: "It's just ham-fisted salami-slicing by the bean counters." (The Wall Street Journal, May 9, 1997)
If (as according to Napoleon) an army DOES march on its stomach, this one will cover miles!

Not a mixed metaphor, merely an abysmal attempt at a simile made worse by the need to explain:
He was as lame as a duck. Not the metaphorical lame duck either, but a real duck that was actually lame. Maybe from stepping on a land mine or something.
