Fox News Ed Henry Confronts WH Spox Earnest on Upcoming Summit on Countering Violent Extremism Why Didn’t You Send Someone to Paris?

Obama White House Spokesman Josh Earnest grilled like a tuna …

Fox News’ Ed Henry confronted WH spox Josh Earnest on Barack Obama’s upcoming Summit on Countering Violent Extremism. Missing from the title, “radical Islam.” The PM of France says its a war against radical Islam but the Obama administration cannot. Not Obama’s folks … it will be a summit against all violent extremism like that from the extremist Quakers, the extremist Buddhists and let us not forget the extremist Amish.

Henry would also later ask why the Obama administration did not even send the DC dog catcher to the Unity march.

Josh Earnest had to use the obligatory catch phrase, Islam is a peaceful religion. Hey Josh, straight from the Imam’s mouth … Islam is a religion of submission.

Mediaite:

“We want to try to mitigate the impact the security precautions would have on those attending the public event,” Earnest said, citing the fact that the outdoor march came together with only 36 hours’ notice, and that the security required to protect a high-level American official would have distracted from the march.

“Of course, the President’s safety is of the utmost importance, you don’t want to distract,” Henry acknowledged. “But then how do you explain the presence of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu? He made it there. He’s a huge target, unfortunately.” In fact, Henry added, “dozens” of leaders were there, leading to another back-and-forth about security, Nelson Mandela’s funeral, what Eric Holder was doing if not marching, and what Obama himself was doing on Sunday — a question Earnest had no answer for.
