Bad Analogy of the Week

Congressman Charlie Norwood (R-GA) explains his rejection of amnesty programs to Tim Russert:

Where I come from is I want to do what the American people want us to do. They feel like that just a slap on the wrist for having broken is our law is simply not enough. What, what they’re talking about is like a bank robber who stole $100,000 dollars and we say to him, “If you’ll just turn yourself in, we’ll fine you $2,000 dollars and you don’t go to jail and you get to keep the $100,000 dollars.”

Charlie, do you think you speak for the American people when you say undocumented workers are analogous to bank robbers?
