California Sen. Dianne Feinstein stood outside her office one recent afternoon explaining her plan for granting legal status to some farmworkers who had entered the country illegally.

She turned to leave, then beckoned back a departing reporter. "Please don't use the word `amnesty,"' [sic] Feinstein said. "It's not an `amnesty.' It's an `earned transition."' [sic]
