I'm sure many of you are familiar with Brazil's decision to photograph and fingerprint American visitors to that nation as a lame rebuke to the fact that we do something similar to their citizens (and most other nations') when they visit the United States. We do it to try to track terrorists and others who would wish us ill; they do it to be annoying.

So, according to "Saturday Night Live's" Weekend Update, Brazil's carnivale will have a 12-foot statue of Uncle Sam with his pants down and genitals exposed. (Whatever makes you Brazilians feel better.)

But the real joke was Weekend Update's report which referred to former President Bill Clinton describing Uncle Sam's proposed attire as "business casual."
