Political Quotes

“In the House we have a procedure that if words are untoward and not becoming of our stature as Members of the United States Congress, by any Member those words can be asked to be taken down. It is unfortunate that in a tweet this morning the Commander in Chief said, of a Member of Congress who is a Federal official, he ``must be stopped,'' words to that effect. I left my hometown early this morning and had hoped there would have been some decent response from the Chief of Staff or other staff members of the White House to be able to say that that is an inappropriate attack on any Member of Congress or Federal official. I have yet to hear a clarification or apology that indicates that providing provocative words to take a Member down, or he must be taken down, is an inappropriate action or words for any Federal official. I hope that we can establish decorum not only in this body, but I hope we can establish decorum in the White House. It is sorely missing. ____________________”
