Liz Cheney has called on Michael Steele to resign following his remark that the war in Afghanistan is a “war of Obama’s choosing.”
Cheney, who is chairman of the group Keep America Safe, said in a statement that the RNC Chairman’s remarks were “deeply disappointing and wrong” and that “it is time” for him “to step down.”
Here’s the full statement:
RNC Chairman Michael Steele’s comments about the war in Afghanistan were deeply disappointing and wrong. The chairman of the Republican party must be unwavering in his support for American victory in the war on terror — a victory that cannot be accomplished if we do not prevail in Afghanistan. I endorse fully Bill Kristol’s letter to Chairman Steele. It is time for Chairman Steele to step down.
