78. That argument doesn't even make sense.
Somehow comparing Bush to Hitler stops him from reaching Hitler's body count? Huh?

Bush isn't even in the realm of the worst US presidents in terms of body count yet. He has a long way to go. Comparing anyone who starts a war to Hitler belittles the 50 million who died in Europe during WWII at the hands of Hitler. Bush is responsible for, at most, 100,000 deaths. There is such a difference in order of magnitude that you can't use the comparison. Otherwise I could compare Lyndon Johnson to Hitler. Indeed I could compare any tinpot despot to Hitler, but it would be wrong to do so.
