'The audacity of some members to stand up and say, 'How dare you break this rule,'' Santorum said in Thursday's Senate speech. 'It's the equivalent of Adolf Hitler in 1942 declaring,' ''I'm in Paris. How dare you invade me. How dare you bomb my city. It's mine.' The irony, in March of 2005, Santorum criticized Senator Robert Byrd's remarks at the time, saying the Nazi references 'lessen the credibility of the senator and the decorum of the Senate.'"
