Crisis just another reason to sling mud

The Democrats are now running an ad accusing Republicans for causing the Ebola crisis due to their budget cuts thru sequestrations. The truth is President Obama signed the sequestration bill and, in fact, took credit for it when it helped reduce the deficit. More importantly, there was no cut to the Centers for Disease Control through sequestration. In fact, the CDC actually got an increase in funding. But why would we expect honesty from politicians?
