"Put troops on the border and start shooting, I bet that solves our immigration problem real quick."—Samuel "Joe the Plumber" Wurzlbacher, at a campaign event for Republican Arizona State Senator candidate Lori Klein.

At Think Progress, Adam Peck notes that Wurzlbacher made the same comment twice within two days, "lest anyone think that Wurzelbacher somehow misspoke."
