White House Spokesman Jay Carney to Leave Post, Obama Announces - NBC News
White House Spokesman Jay Carney to Leave Post, Obama Announces
Jay Carney is leaving his post behind the podium.
Good riddance!
Rumor has it that he's been negotiating with CNN for a few months to be on their payroll after he left the White House. Maybe he can replace Piers Morgan? At least it would be consistent in the tone of that show.
And, who can ever forget this wonderful display of professionalism and honesty:
UGH! I remember that. He was at his snarkiest that day.
How much does the job of Chief Propogandist pay?I'd like to be considered. I can get up there and lie, snivel, and be an asshole too.
Wonder who the new obfuscater for the President will be and will they be more or less arrogant and smug than Carney.MSNBC already has enough hyperpartisan morons as well as racists - Carney would just be one in a sea and lost in the shuffle.I'm hoping he goes to CNN as they're about to keel over anyway.
My guess is that he's headed for Fox. They're going to fill his pockets with cash.
Everyone has a price.
Fill his pockets with cash for what in return? I don't think they have an opening other than being another paid contributor.

Damn it, I'm always ****ing late to the party.
Obama announced the selection of Principal Deputy Press Secretary Josh Earnest as his choice to be the next press secretary

I would have excelled at that role.
“As you know, his name describes his demeanor,” Obama said of his new press secretary. “Josh is an earnest guy, and you can’t find just a nicer individual, even outside of Washington.”
:2mad:I'll bet I'm nicer.

media"..Well, I'm holding out that he left because he saw the writing on the wall for this admin. Sure it took some time, but maybe, just maybe, he'd had enough of it. Lying that is. Even devout progressives can get to a point where they say.. "Umm, gee...I'm not sure I can go out there and say that to the American
Here's hoping Carney has a modicum of integrity and it was his decision riddled finally with enormous guilt.
Tim-
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney resigns - NY Daily News
Looks like Carney is ****ing smooching Obama's arm. Bromance.
I doubt Ari Fleischer will come out of retirement, he made good money after leaving the BushII leagues. He was Mark McGwire's press consultant after Mark admitted to steroid use, and worked briefly for Tiger Woods after that mess. (spokesman and consultant for men knee deep in their own poo, I detect a trend and skill set there)
He is credited with inventing the term 'homicidal bomber' to replace suicide bomber- is that obfuscating enough for ya??? :lol:
He rolled over on Scooter Libby and claimed Scooter told him 'weeks' before the time Libby says a reporter told him about Plame being CIA (in a claim that Valerie sent her husband to look for a papertrail on yellowcake leaving Niger). So wouldn't you want a narc in the Obama White House?
Perhaps Scott McClellan is more to your liking, his book on the White House during the Iraq war is full of double talk and shoulder shrugging- a perfect muddle mouth man. He says the White House didn't deliberately use out and out deception but instead used "political propaganda campaign"... WTF? He says BushII used self deception and was in constant campaign mode rather than making the best choices...
Or how about Tony Snow...guest host for Oxcy Rush, O'Really and Fox 'news' show host... due to Josh Bolton demanding everyone sign on for the duration or go, Snow's tenure was short and cancer soon claimed him at age 52 IIRC... but he did the dance of a faltering Bush Administration amazingly well.
