I agree. In fact, I joined the criticism of his statements, though not to the extent I have criticized Durbin. Anyone who participates in such rhetoric is ignorant of history and what the Nazis and Soviets and Khmer Rouge and whomever had done throughout history.

I will say, though, that I find Durbin's comments to be much worse, because we are at a time of war, and his statements have surely been cause for comfort to our enemies. In fact, his comments were broadcast all over Al Jazeera and used as anti US propaganda when his comments have no basis in fact (not to say Santorum's did).

Since you find Santorum's comments so outgrageous, will you then join in the criticism of Durbin? Or since his political philosophy is more alligned with yours, will you just ignore the comments and give him a pass?
