the Attorney General is the premier law enforcement officer, the senior law enforcement officer in America.

Do you believe the Executive action announced by President Obama on November 20 is legal and constitutional, just yes or no?

I do not believe, and totally reject the idea that if Congress fails to act, then the President is entitled to act.

So sometimes you just get caught up in things. Issues become big and an individual becomes a focus of the controversy.

We have reached a lawless stage in immigration and the American people are not happy about it.

I hope Ms. Lynch can fix these flaws.

And the law, of course, requires that. It is just too often not being followed in an effective way.

On the 50th anniversary of the Selma march that is approaching--people were denied systematically fundamental rights as citizens of the United States of America.

I do not see any need for this Congress to confirm somebody to be the chief law enforcement officer of this Nation who is at that table insisting that she intends to execute a policy that is contrary to law and to what Congress desires and…

he or she sets the tone for law in America, the commitment to law, and must resist politicizing law.

the reputation of this great Department is being eroded.

I certainly agree. I am a little surprised it took you that long, but the Attorney General's statement was breathtaking to me.

I believe it is indefensible.

I agree we need to make it sound, and it is not your responsibility. It is ours.

We have created a system that creates a benefit, an increasing benefit when the economy grows, and we do not have enough money coming in both overall and per individual.

the failure to defend DOMA, the Defense of Marriage Act.

somebody needs to be asking themselves who is protecting the American worker, the people who are paying the salaries of you, the President and all of us.

Well, and do you agree with Professor Turley that one of the most significant overreaches is the President's Executive actions with regard to amnesty?

The Attorney General's job is to represent the American people, not just the President and not just the executive branch.

the idea that there are rights that might attach to someone who is here unlawfully to take jobs from Americans under difficult working conditions, as we are today, is antithetical to common sense.

We are entering into an utterly lawless system here. Nothing Congress passes, apparently, has the ability to be effectuated in reality.

the person unlawfully here magically, at this moment, becomes eligible to compete against an unemployed American truck driver, and I think that is bizarre.

the common thread that binds all these challenges together, in my judgment, is a Department of Justice that is very deeply politicized.

The problem is your policies. Tax more, spend more, borrow more, regulate more, Obamacare more.

It is quite different, as I think Mr. Kirsanow points out, to demand your lawful rights as an American and to ask for--insist that civil rights apply to those who enter the country unlawfully to have these benefits.
