You don't add a lot of value to your argument by calling names.

And Bush did kill 1,500,000+ people for being in league with "demonic forces". Can't we at least call him "Schikelgruber"?

Oops, you're a dick! Just don't ask me to clean up your dirty business after you are done though.

(this is a riff derivation from South Park in case somebody is thinking about hitting the alert button).

I'm willing to call Bush that word up there, but it has too many syllables to get through and very few people would understand the reference.

high is a little over a million. 500K sounds reasonable given all the useless killing due to failed military tactics and incompetence. Destroyed infrastructure, which is still broke today, indirectly killed those trapped and in the crossfire.

dilutes a good analogy. After invoking Hitler, where else it there to go?
