Last week the Obama White House refused to call the slaughter at Charlie Hebdo newspaper an act of terrorism. The Obama administration was “waiting for an investigation.”
Today White House Spokesman Josh Earnest said it was “inaccurate” to use the phrase “radical Islam.”
“I’m describing a reason why we have not chosen to use that label because it doesn’t seem to accurately describe what had happened.”
Via Special Report:
That was just crazy.
"This is bad so this can't be true Islam" is a pretty convenient definition.
