"Sen. Rick Santorum says he "meant no offense" by referring to Adolf Hitler while defending the GOP's right to ban judicial filibusters as Senate leaders prepared to start a countdown Friday to a vote over whether to stop minority senators from blocking President Bush's judicial nominees.

When Republicans do it they apologize." promptly!

I think it is that Durbin is more partisan than most on his side of the aisle.
