Breaking: Senator compares carbon dioxide to Hitler

Bernie Sanders compares climate skeptics to Nazi deniers - Marin Cogan - POLITICO.com
Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders is comparing climate change skeptics to those who disregarded the Nazi threat in America in the 1930s, adding a strident rhetorical shot to the already volatile debate over climate change.

"It reminds me of an event that took place in this country and around the world in the late 1930s," said Sanders, perhaps the most liberal member of the Senate, during a Senate hearing Tuesday. "During that period of Nazism and fascism's growth-a real danger to this country and democratic countries around the world- there were people in this country and in the British parliament who said 'don't worry! Hitler's not real! It'll disappear!"

That's funny ... the leftist Hitler was the first to begin to try and use science to hoodwink and bamboozle people. And who but the Senate's resident Socialist to bring that point up.
