Conservative calls for beleaguered RNC Chairman Michael Steele to step down keep coming. First Bill Kristol demanded his resignation, and now Republican Rep. Tom Cole of Oklahoma is asking for it as well. The opposition to the gaffe-prone Steele comes after he delivered controversial and inaccurate comments implying that Afghanistan was Obama’s war—and one we shouldn’t be engaging in. "Frankly, I find Steele's remarks totally unacceptable. He should apologize and resign,” said Cole. “He undercut American forces fighting in the field, politicized further a war that two presidents of different parties have deemed in the national interest and embarrassed the party he purports to lead. It is time for him to go — quickly."
