Since we've recently learned that the value of a lost life is inversely proportional to the population of the country, we need a way to concisely and conveniently discuss tragedies and their relative values. Using 9/11 as the defining constant, we define one (1) Bush as the death of 3000/285,000,000 ≈ 0.00105% of a nation's population. Perhaps easier to remember, 1 kB (kiloBush) is approximately equal to the death of 1% of the population.

Some examples for reference:

9/11 is 1 Bush (of course)
total annihilation of a countries population is 100 kiloBushes (the largest value possible under relativistic models)
1 man in Vatican City choking to death on a hotdog is approx. 124 Bushes.

These changes will be voted on in the 2024 General Conference on Weights and Measures and are expected to pass unanimously.

I hope the name is changed to the Dubya.

No because then the ghouls with refer to them as "dubs" implying they earned a "W" when murdering people.
