A vintage Bush joke
So, Donald Rumsfeld is briefing George Bush in the Oval Office:
"Oh and finally, sir, three Brazilian soldiers were killed in Iraq today." Bush goes pale, his jaw hanging open in stunned disbelief. He buries his face in his hands, muttering "My God...My God...". "Mr. President," says Rumsfeld, "we lose soldiers all the time, and it's terrible. But I've never seen you so upset. What's the matter?" Bush looks up and asks..."Exactly how many is a Brazilian?" |
