Former MSNBC Host Calls Santorum A “Lunatic” And Compares Him To Mussolini

After six years of comparing George W. Bush to Hitler, it looks like the Left has decided to compare Republican politicians to other notorious world leaders.  I can only only imagine that if Newt Gingrich gets the nomination, he might be compared to Genghis Khan.  Here’s Cenk Uygur comparing Rick Santorum to Benito Mussolini.

While the comparison in the video is definitely “old tone”, it does give preview to something we should expect, if Santorum gets the nomination.  The Left Wing and the mainstream media, both, will find every opportunity to paint the former Senator as Christian zealot, whether it’s fair or not.  President Obama’s defenders would much rather talk about Rick Santorum’s religious beliefs than they would the economy, and you don’t have to be a “lunatic” to believe that.
