Dozens of members of Congress sent a letter to Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Thursday, urging “utmost caution and restraint” in further dealings with North Korea and condemning President Donald Trump for promising “fire and fury” in response to reports that the Asian nation is escalating its nuclear program.

“These statements are irresponsible and dangerous, and also senselessly provide a boon to domestic North Korean propaganda which has long sought to portray the United States as a threat to their people,” reads the letter from 64 House Democrats, led by Rep. John Conyers (D-Mich.).

“We respectfully but firmly urge you to do everything in your power to ensure that President Trump and other Administration officials understand the importance of speaking and acting with the utmost caution and restraint on this delicate issue,” the letter continues. “Congress and the American public will hold President Trump responsible if a careless or ill-advised miscalculation results in conflict that endangers our servicemembers and regional allies.”(continued)

64 out of 465

That makes 13%, so if the reporters were honest, they’d have demonstrated the minority it is by saying: “Just 13% of Congress Condemns Trumps Threat to North Korea”.

Bunch of pussies we got making our laws and spending our money.

"87% of Congress approves of President Trump's stance on North Korea"

[FiddlePig]

To these Commie “surrender monkeys” Kim Jong-un, ISIS, and Iran ain’t the enemy... Trump is.

Over 60 Members Of Congress Condemn Trump’s Threat To North Korea

So, 475 members of congress do not condemn the President's stated stance. But the HuffPo thinks that having 60 members speak out is the headline?

64 out of 465 That makes 13%, so if the reporters were honest, they’d have demonstrated the minority it is by saying: “Just 13% of Congress Condemns Trumps Threat to North Korea”.

Actually I think 435 serve in the House of Representatives, and 100 serve in the Senate for a total of 535. So 60 of 535 is 11.2%.

[hal ogen]

At least 60 members of congress prove that they are useless quislings. I wonder how often they hide in their offices whimpering and sniffling as they work their Playdo and draw with crayons. What geldings. What weak sisters. What boneless amoebas.

[JimRed]

Get those damned sissyboys out next election cycle!

[Wuli]

Mea Culpa - you are right. I took the 435 figure out of my head, it was the first to come to mind, and then without thinking further ignored the Senate. My bad.

[glennaro]

Sounds racisss ... 'though descriptive of these cowards.

As such, I suppose we can pretty much figure out what they would fling at the Little NORK instead of a few dozen cruise missiles.

[JustaCowgirl]

The Surrender Monkey Caucus.

So true. You should trademark that.

[sport]

They are all you say and more, however, everyone of them were put where they re by a majority [legally or illegally]voters. I had heard that water seeks its own level, I suppose that this manifests it. On A personal note, I, myself have had my leg pulled more than once by a politician.

[hal ogen]

Thanks Goopdness it was only your “leg”!

[hal ogen]

Thanks Goodness it was only your “leg”!

[SkyDancer]

But totally forgot/okay’d what Clinton said which was essentially the same thing.
