Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."
"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"
His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands. Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a Brazilian?"

19. You know the sad thing is I didn't catch it as a joke at first but |
|
as something Bush actually said--that he would equate a dead Brazillian soldier to be less important than an American soldier.

24. "Well Mr. president, the good news is... |
|
...that one Brazilian is far less than the lives lost in the war on terror in Afghanistan.
The bad news is that the death toll for the war on Saddam numbers into countless mammalians."

The joke is that * thinks a 'brazilian' is a number, such as a 'bazillion' or a 'gazillion'... get it?
Took me a few seconds to catch it, too. :)

Bwahahahahahaha! Dubya actually giving a shit about the troops! Oh man, that's hilarious! What a kidder you are! Then I saw there was one more line to the joke and yeah, it's pretty damn funny but Dubya giving a damn about the troops? Hah, that just cracked me up!
