It's a question knowledgeable Americans have been asking for six years now.  But what makes the above quote remarkable is that it came from a federal judge during an on-the-record court hearing.

U.S. district judge Andrew Hanen is hearing the court case brought by 26 states – that a majority of the 50 states have joined to fight Obama's overreach is never pointed out by the media – to overturn Obama's executive actions on immigration.  Hanen last month issued a preliminary injunction against Obama's imperial fiats.  He did so after being assured by Justice Department attorneys that the Obama administration would follow his orders.

Turns out, the regime has issued over 100,000 "reprieves" from federal immigration law anyway.

Hanen wasn't pleased.  "Like an idiot, I believed that" (the attorney's assurances Obama would follow his order), he told flustered U.S. attorney Kathleen Hartnett, before continuing, "Can I trust what the president says?"

And to make clear that he was tired of the Justice Department's obfuscations, Hanen pointed out, "That's a yes-or-no question."

No doubt damaging her credibility with the court, Hartnett replied that he could.

All evidence to the contrary.
