Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld swaggers into the Oval office to give the President an update on the war in Iraq.
"Well, sir, sadly three Brazilian soldiers were killed in Baghdad today,"
Rumsfeld regretfully reported.
President Bush groaned and dropped his head into his hands and said, "Oh my goodness, that is horrible news."
Secretary Rumsfeld seemed a little surprised at the President's reaction.
"Mr. President, I know that this loss is tragic, but I've given you such
news before and to my recollection, you've never reacted in this manner,"
Rumsfeld declared. "Why are you taking this so hard, sir?"
Bush raised his head from his hands and asked, "How many is a Brazilian?"
