Liberal blogger calls Romney 'Hitler' because of Swiss bank account, Obama press secretary chimes in; Update: The ol' 'just kidding' excuse

Liberal blogger Matt Yglesias says Romney is comparable to Hitler because of this article disclosing the former Nazi leader’s Swiss bank account. Is there no end to how far leftists will reach to manufacture a talking point?

@BrandonKiser @mattyglesias No No No! It means Romney is like Hitler because they both hid money off shore. Get your MSM media spin right

You know what's awesome? When "respected" lefties compare Mitt Romney to Hitler before he's even president! http://t.co/JoF3qxrL

Obama for America press secretary Ben LaBolt got chatty with Yglesias about evil Romney. Apparently, that is now part of the official campaign.

@BenLaBolt Who cares? My unemployed neighbor fighting foreclosure and scrapping to feed their kids don't care about offshore accounts.

Update:

Yglesias claims he made a funny, but conservatives just didn’t get it.
