Hasselbeck to Valerie Jarrett: Why Didn't Obama Mention Al Qaeda, Radical Islam? (Video)

Fox News Insider reports:

Elisabeth Hasselbeck took on White House senior advisor Valerie Jarrett this morning over what President Obama said - and didn't say - in the State of the Union.

Hasselbeck noted that last night marked the first State of the Union since 9/11 where a president did not say “al Qaeda.”

She also asked Jarrett, “Why won’t the president say Islamic extremism or radical Islam?”

Jarrett said that there is nothing more important to the president than the safety and security of Americans. She explained that some attacks are by extremists with no particular faith.

“Before we start throwing around labels, let’s look more broadly at terrorism, let’s not limit it, let’s look broadly at it and let's attack it together, and that’s what the president is absolutely committed to doing," Jarrett said.

A video well worth watching.
