Obama Press Secretary Jay Carney Resigns

Your deflection to Ari Fleischer isn't working. What's wrong, you find what this administration has done indefensible too and find it hard to defend? Why else would you be bringing up Ari Fleischer, the press secretary for Bush the first 2 years of his presidency well over a decade ago? Now that shows real desperation on your part. This weasel Carney has allowed himself to be used to attempt cover ups of falsehoods over and over again for 6 years defending the lies.

I watch the McLaughlin Group religiously, and very much enjoy the sparring that that goes on between the lefties versus the righties! The current hot topic is climate change - since Obama has decided that is his next crusade - and even though facts are presented, including polls taken, the lefties will not change their minds about their perceived doomsday if Al Gore, and others who stand to make new fortunes, are not listened to!. They're treating theory as fact!

My solution? When China gets their air cleaned as good as ours already is, then we can have a discussion about how much our utility bills are going to soar because of this scam! It will be a good first test for the new White House press secretary, poor guy! :roll:

Greetings, Vesper. :2wave:
 
My point is, so did Fleischer, Perino, Snow, McClellan, Myers, Stephanopolous, et al. Press secretaries are ass-coverers by nature.
Exactly, that's their job description. It's a hard presser job and I'm not surprised the Press Secretary's don't last very long in that job.
 
It's not about Carney's job or what press sec's are there to do, as much as his snarky mistreatment of reporters that would ask tough questions.

I'd have to agree. Also in the news, China and Russia are working on a deal or have concluded a deal for China to purchase large amounts of natural gas from Russia, so maybe they'll be converting over from their sulfur rich, dirty coal? That'd help their air pollution troubles much.

I've heard that these regulations could hike everyone's electric bills by 80% (that's probably a bit high but even still, quite alarming). Yet another Obama wooden stake into the heart of the recovery! And people question me when I assert that the recovery we have is in spite of Obama's economic and regulatory policies? Pulleeze!

Yes all the new regulations Obama's folks at the EPA are rolling out are going to have a huge adverse effect on our economy no doubt about it. But when it comes to Carney, it's the administration that he defends that makes him such a weasel. Carney has been part of this administration since 2008. He first started out as the Director of Communications for Joe Biden. Can you imagine trying to smooth over all the gaffes of that man? It's probably because of his experience with Biden that he was picked by this administration for the job of press secretary. Before Carney there was Gibbs. Remember how he would go out there and sell Obamacare as the greatest thing since sliced bread? Now you see him on talk shows shaking his head in disbelief over the failed rollout of Obamacare and no one being held accountable. I find that rather laughable because no one in this administration is held accountable for anything starting at the very top.

Gibbs has also expressed concern over Hillary not being able to distance herself from Obama or her husband's presidency.
 
Being that we are talking about Jay Carney I wouldn't be surprised if he showed up at the next press briefing and chastised the reporters for believing the false narrative that he had resigned.
 
I only wish he had been fired. But, im sure the next guy will be just as bad. Its a really dumb position.

It's likely he was fired. It's just that these days......instead of outright firing....you are convinced in very stark terms to resign.

Any evidence at all for this being "likely"?

How about the fact that it came with absolutely no notice. Normally if they are quitting they give notice.

I don't his options are limited.
 
He did last a long time, but he must be near the end of the book of lies and deceit.
Time for a new and updated book, starting with page one with his replacement.
