Donald Rumsfeld is giving President George W Bush his daily briefing on the war in Iraq.

He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, three 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 Commander-in-Chief sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up with a puzzled look on his face, and asks:

"Exactly how many is a brazillion?"

Quote of the Day
