The White House says it erred in not sending a high-level official to an anti-terror march in Paris on Sunday.
More than 40 world leaders attended the rally, which was aimed at showing unity following terror attacks by Islamic militants that left 17 people dead. The Obama administration was represented by the U.S. ambassador to France.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest says that despite the failure to send a higher-ranking official, there should be no doubt about the strong relationship the U.S. has with France.
Earnest wouldn’t say what led to the White House’s decision to send only the ambassador.

Josh Earnest didn’t have to say why a higher level official wasn’t sent. The Obama administration is reluctant to show it is critical of Islam, and this evident as AG Holder in an interview could not bring himself to say that radical Islam was responsible for the Paris attacks.
First time in six years this administration ever admitted to screwing up. Let’s hope this breaks the ice for them to admit to all their screwups.
“Earnest wouldn’t say what led to the White House’s decision to send only the ambassador”
Well I’ll tell you why, you dummy! Its because the Kenyan in the White House is the Neville Chamberlain of our time! When he stole the election in ’08, he took what his “Reverend” Jeremiah Wright had been spewing very seriously. He immediately started on an Apology tour, telling the Muslim world that we as Americans had it coming (9/11). We are the evil white nation. He is still bowing down to those dogs to this very day.
Good morning, guys.
Too little, too late, though. You blew it big time on this one.
Attending the rally was not just about the connection the U.S has with France. It was representative of a show of solidarity against terrorism.
If there are no terrorists, there is nothing to protest.
