Republican Sen. Conrad Burns, whose re-election campaign is pressing for
tighter immigration controls, referred to his house painter as "a nice
little Guatemalan man" and suggested that worker as well as employees of
a roofing company he hired might be in the country illegally.

"The other day, the little fella who does our maintenance work around the
house, he's from Guatemala, and I said, 'Could I see your green card?'"
Burns said at a June meeting recorded by Democrats. "And Hugo says, 'No.'
I said, 'Oh, gosh.'"
...

Geez, this guy just doesn't learn...

What is Senator C. Burn's middle name? Would it happen to be
"Montgomery"?
