Quote 22 Feb 134 notes

Rick Santorum sees Nazis everywhere: in the Middle East, in doctor’s offices and medical labs, in the Democratic Party, and now in the White House.

The Republican presidential candidate told a group of supporters Sunday night that this year’s election was like the time between 1940 and 1941 when Americans didn’t act against Adolf Hitler because they thought he was “a nice guy” and not “near as bad as what we think.”

“It’s going to be harder for this generation to figure this out. There’s no cataclysmic event,” he explained, but similar urgency. “Is anybody reminding us who we are, what made us great, and what these assaults are all about?”

The obvious implication — later denied by the candidate — was that Santorum is some modern-day Churchill and President Obama is der Fuhrer. It was outrageous and yet, for Santorum, routine.

— 

DANA MILBANK, “Rick Santorum Cries ‘Nazi,’” in the Washington Post.

Whether its Republicans calling for legalized rape in Virginia or one of their presidential candidates comparing Obama to Hitler, conservatives feel like they can never take things too far.

The GOP is fucking shameless.

    No, there definitely wasn’t a cataclysmic event during WWII. Only, you know, all of them. Take your pick.
