Tom Udall actually said...

"What happened last summer at the VA was a betrayal of our veterans."

"I just want to tell you how much I appreciate you calling this hearing because I think what you are trying to do is get to the bottom of what really happened."

"What is going on there is a disaster, and any attention, any help you can bring to that--there must be knowledge within the government body of what is happening and why."

"This is a very important hearing, and I appreciate both of you working together on this and bringing these issues forward."
