More Divisive Rhetoric from a Democrat

The Department of Veterans Affairs runs a $1 billion shortfall and before anybody even knows what the whole thing is all about, Sen. Patty Murray immediately plays the Divisiveness Card:
"This shortfall results from either deliberate misdirection or gross incompetence by this administration and the Department of Veteran Affairs," said Sen. Patty Murray, D-Washington.
Sen., how the %^&$ would you know? The chairman of the committee doesn't even know what happened yet.
Craig said he didn't yet see the need for emergency action but planned to call VA officials to a hearing next week to pin down more precise spending figures.

"We're going to pound them like hell 'til we get them, then we'll make some judgments," he said.
Irresponsible rhetoric from yet another Democrat in the Senate...color me shocked and appalled.
