From your link, "Sensenbrenner disses Senate immigration bill"


“You know, I reject the spin that the senators have been putting on their proposal. It is amnesty,” he said.

“You know, there's an old phrase that I think many of us have said upon occasion: ‘Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.’ The amnesty provisions in the Senate bill are almost a carbon copy of Simpson-Mazzoli.

“And that's why things have got to done in the proper order, because shame-on-me time is going to be shame on the Congress and a fraud that will be perpetrated on the people of the United States of America.”


Kudos and thanks to Sensenbrenner. ...I like this guy!
