Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., waits to make a statement in opposition to President Barack Obama's choice of former Nebraska Sen. Chuck Hagel to run the Pentagon as a bitterly divided Senate Senate Armed Services Committee considers the nomination on Capitol Hill in Washington. On a talk show Sunday, Feb. 17, 2013, Graham said critics were &quot;doing our job to scrutinize ... one of the most unqualified, radical choices for secretary of defense in a very long time.&quot;  (AP Photo/J.
