President Bush was standing in the Oval Office when the Secretary of State came rushing in. The Secretary said, "Mr. President, sir, I have bad news. The Embassy was just attacked and four Brazilian soldiers have died." Mr. Bush had a blank look on his face and appeared not to hear him, so the secretary repeated, "Mr. President, four Brazilian soldiers have just been killed." This time, the president looked stricken and immediately sat down at his desk. He put his head in his hands and looked as if he was about to cry. The Secretary of State was touched and a little surprised that the president was taking things so hard, so he said, "Sir? Are you all right?" The president, still stunned, looked up at the Secretary of State and said, "OK, so tell me...exactly how many is a Brazilian, anyway?"
:D

I could explain this joke, but I won't. That kills it. Besides, if you don't get it, that's just sad.
Freesumpin: I didn't set it up 3 times; I set it up twice. And I'm not a professional comedienne or I wouldn't be posting on here! Lighten up.

Don't worry about the self-appointed critics. They aren't comedians themselves. "Setting it up twice" is a vital part of the story, building it up to the punch line. Nothing wrong with that. In fact, if you don't mind, I'd like to copy this one and save it to my personal files!

hahahahahahahha I laugh everytime I read it.
It made me laugh harder when I told it to my younger brother and when I said the punch line, he said, "Well? How much is it?"
haha It was great.
By the way, I thought the set-up was great. I'm not going to over-analyze a great joke! =]

OK, it 'cute' but could practically been a one liner. You don't have to repeat the setup three times, comics on stage NEVER do, but the punchline's ok.
