Sen. Lindsey Graham says Afghanistan is not "Obama's war."
The South Carolina Republican is strongly condemning that comment from Republican Party chairman Michael Steele. But Graham isn't demanding that Steele resign.
Graham tells CBS' "Face The Nation" that Afghanistan is "America's war" and that the U.S. needs to have a military presence there for national security reasons.
Graham calls Steele's comment "uninformed, unnecessary, unwise."
