Vlog Episode 14 "Justin and Colbert"
(don't read below until after you've finished watching the video)
Justin
I forgot to mention that since 9/11, we should have been prepared for anything. Anything being of course another terrorist attack or even let's say, a Hurricane. Now obviously our Bush and our intelligence that has become far superior since 9/11 failed us again with Katrina. So I guess we can add the 1600 people that died as a result from Katrina to the 57,000 people that I mentioned in the above video. Etimated total of 58,600 people have died since 9/11.
Colbert
Wait a minute! Don't blame The prez for those deaths too! Listen, anyone living in hurricane country knows the consequences. It's the people's own fault. Don't add that 1600 to the imaginary 57,000 death toll you came up with. We'll just take the 1600 and subtract it from the math I did earlier. So, we last left off with zero people dying since 9/11. Now we take that 1600 that Justin has tacked on there, subtract it from the zero I have and, it looks as if negative 1600 people have died since Bush has been in office. So the way I look at it, Bush has a 1600 person free window to kill whoever he wants before any of it actually counts.
Justin
Well you say it like that then you're just wiping out the existance of people.
Colbert
Well you do what you need to do for oil.
Justin
Lovely! Hiring you was a good idea
Colbert
Why's that?
Justin
It makes me look good.

Leaving the script world for a minute. Doesn't 58,600 people give you goosebumps. It sounds like a movie. I have a theory. I bet you that before Bush leaves office he'll be responsible for the genocide of one of three groups. Either the Iraqi's, the American people, or the American troops.
Not possible, or not probable? Of course it's far fetched to think that way. I dont really think he can wipe out a whole group. That's giving him too much credit. But the events he has set forth will forever be in our hands. We, the Americans, the greatest country on earth, the country that is better then the rest has started a war to which there is no end. Would it be a better war if we just stayed in Afgahnistan? No! We should be smarter then war. Why return bloodshed when it's been brought to your door.? We might as well teach kids to get revenge on every bully in school. But when they get revenge, they should enter the Bully's house when he's least expecting it, kill his parents, rape his sister, then murder the evil do-er. Isnt that what we do?

You're right it is genocide.
I love that the argument continues past the vlog :)
