(CNSNews.com) - Did President Barack Obama personally consult
with Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano on Christmas Day,
when suspected al Qaeda terrorist Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab allegedly
tried to detonate a suicide bomb aboard Northwest Flight 253? Asked
that question by CNSNews.com, Napolitano initially declined to answer
and then, when asked again, said “we were in contact with the
president’s office” that day.
The White House told news organizations on Christmas Day that President
Obama had ordered heightened air travel security immediately after he
was first briefed on the attempted attack at about 9:00 a.m. Hawaii
time (2:00 p.m Eastern) on Christmas Day and that he was repeatedly
briefed on the incident during that day.
