Before working for Biden, Carney was a longtime print reporter, most recently the Washington bureau chief for Time magazine. He left Time for the Biden post.

Rick,Ky

They remind of Baghdad Bob. All they do is lie and spread propaganda. Spanky too because he is out of touch with reality.
CONGRATULATIONS, Jay
Art Carney, may he rest in peace, would have been perfect for the job. Hey Naw-ton, what happened in the sewer today?
Feisty and Beverly: I know this question must have been posed before, but are you the same person? If not, are you the twins from the old Doublemint gum commercials?
Would rather see Jim Carey as PUTZOTUS' press secretary
A Carney joins the Obama circus...get it?
I for one will miss Robert, the stumbling mouth of the President. He has the tendency to make people laugh. I do however, hope he finds life in Chicago as the talking mouth for Rahm. Rahm will win.....and dead people seem to vote there.
What a great name for that job.
Yeah I had the same thoughts, the headline could read CARNEY NAMED BARKER TO MEDIA CIRCUS.
whew, thought I had heard it was going to be John Carney from Delaware. The other moron we sent to DC public stage is embarassing enough!

The morons are the ones trying to get to the White House like Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann who aren't clear about the Founding Fathers and founding documents .
Or anything for that matter; especially camera and telepromters
Imagine if Christine the teen-age witch O'Donnell had won!
You would of won the daily double!

No, we'd have to pay Dumbo's rent and other expenses.
robert gibbs was the very best press secretary in the last 25 years!!!!!!!! i wish his sucessor much success and good luck.
LOL! WUT?
CORRECTION!!! Gibbs was the WORST in my 70 year life time.
Looks like Gibbs got infected with a terminal case of genital herpes on his lips.....even the make-up has stopped working.....
WHAT??? Gibbs couldn't say anything without stumbling all over himself. Er, ah, hmmm. He was pitiful. Most the time he didn't even know what he was talking about .
I can't think of a worse press sec. in my 62 years. He stumbled, stammered, was un or ill informed. I may start watching the press releases again (probably not).
Sounds like someone knows an awful lot about what herpes looks like!
TMI DUDE - TMI!
You are joking, right? He was the worst I have ever seen.
Sounds like someone knows an awful lot about what herpes looks like!
TMI DUDE - TMI!
Yes, TMI. Herpes simplex is the virus for cold sores but can spread to other body parts. Mikey exposing himself; seemingly.
The tag-team of Beverly in Chicago and Feisty Redhead Roselle, IL...keep breaking the #1 Rule.....Don't make it personal about another viner....I was commenting on Gibbs and you 2 commented on nothing but me. But that's what you two do.
Anybody check this dude's birth certificate?
Does he now, or has he ever palled around with ACORNs? (Walnuts? Filberts??)
SOMETHING has to be worng with him.
Bagdad Bob: Don't let the door hit your butt on the way out. Good riddance.
Is the new guy from Kenya or America? Is he a former communist?
he is from kenya and a commie, how else would obama know him?
Looks like someone has been posting while under the influence of crack and watching Faux Noise.
"Carney to be the new White House press secretary"...
A fitting name for an already CIRCUS-LIKE administration....
Will he come with the big red nose and floppy shoes ???... (perhaps he could get some pointers from clown-face, Al Franken)
This administration is one big "carney" atmosphere; filled with lies, obfuscations, euphemisms, and shill games. These clowns haven't got a clue!
great choice - lots of luck to him
Hello America, well lets look at what Sarah Palin said, """ because she believes that Sputnik brought down communism. She said, "Yeah, they won, but they also incurred so much debt at the time, that it resulted in the inevitable collapse of the Soviet Union." Yep, Sarah confused the space race with the arms race."""""""""""""" well in reality the space race and the Arms race are one and the same thing, wether or not Dwight D. Eisenhower was actually trying to explore space, or explore spy sattelites is a rather mute point, as to wether or not the cost of Sputnick brought down the Soviet Union is a matter of conjecture, certainly it takes money to do Science, and the bigger and the better the science the more it costs, infact a nation could possibly get so involved in Rocketeering that they forget to plant spuds, and a Socialist Economy leaves little room for Free Enterprise growth such as what has happened in Greece, so yes in a round about way you could say that the Sputnick Race along with all those Nuclear War Heads was what caused the collapse of the Soviet union, it certainly is a valid argument, just as much to say that Obamas approach to taking 70 Billion Dollars from the Defense budget will not result in more unemployed American Engineers and Scientists, which once lost are not easily recovered, look at how much fear Barrack Obamas State of The Union Address has placed in the Science Community, oh by the way does anyone really care who he gets as a press secretary? sincerely Fezzy Bear
Fezzy: you need to shorten those posts. Keep in mind there are lots of dummiecrats here so the posts need to be shorter and much simpler to read.
Go Palin! Go Beck!
I will keep that in mind, thanks
What?
Wow- did I smoke that number already??
Yes Faux News Truths, you should keep your posts shorter since they are an oxymoron just like your name.
FoxNewsTruth
Now that is an oxymoron handle. It certainly made me laugh though.
Fezzie, It's a MOOT point, not a MUTE point. Moot, as in not relevant. Not mute, as in silent.
FoxNewsTruth...." Keep in mind there are lots of dummiecrats here so the posts need to be shorter and much simpler to read."
Don't worry....the dummiecrats type very slowly because they know that their friends can't read fast.
Well as long as it isn't Jim Carrey. But then again we could use a couple of good laughs.
Sam-501119
Well as long as it isn't Jim Carrey. But then again we could use a couple of good laughs.
Don't you get enough LOL moments with the Tea-tards?
never mind......
LOL, WTF are you talking about Bev? Anyways keeps posting please, you make me laugh!! Well at least you didn't cut and paste that comment.
Awe shucks, I though they meant Art Carney he would be a fit for that comedy! I know he isn't with us anymore but hey he could vote in Chicago, why not appear at the Whitehouse.
I was thinking maybe Cheelay Con Carney. Hmm... I MUST have smoked that number already.
Heeeyyyy a Carney for the Carnival! How fitting!
Best Press Secretary ? He's a liberal ass !
I'll miss Robert Gibbs like I'll miss a pimple on my a_— !
Wat do you mean FORMER COMMUNIST? This "president" is Kenyan and a communist! I hope we live through this administration with our free country intact! And I also hope that in 2012 we elect an American born president! People should know that when someone drags his feet about his personal information he has something he's hiding. Or somethingS.
smart citizen

Well you survived the main 2 American terrorist Bush/ Cheney regime
Life will be better for the whole world when those spend their time in jail in a cell.
You haven't heard?
Hawaii gov: Record of President Obama's birth in 1961 is 'in the archives'
http://www.thegrio.com/politics/hawaii-gov-record-of-president-obamas-birth-in-1961-is-in-the-archives.php
But, you won't believe the birth certificate exists; now will you?
The only thing that ever dragged were the knuckles of birthers like you. "smart citizen?" No. No. You are not. You symbolize all that is wrong with the Right and all of the reasons why this country was thrown off a cliff under W and are doing everything you can to make sure we stay at the bottom. You are paranoid and angry. You don't believe the truth because the truth is that there aren't very many of you. You're alone. You're dying out. So you're left to troll around on sites throwing feces at the world. You're worthless. You don't matter. You're nothing.
Beverly, I was wondering, would you buy a car from the salesman in the CarFax commercials if he repeatedly refused to show you the CarFax?
Perhaps if he showed you the CarFox or he showed you a note from the previous owner?
I would hope not, but since you and many others seem to not need proof of something that is much more important to the country than a simple car purchase, I would think those sneaky car salesman are doing pretty good with your crowd.
As you stated:
Hawaii gov: Record of President Obama's birth in 1961 is 'in the archives'
In the archives does not mean he has a long form certificate. Especially since the Hawaii gov has already stated he could not find Obama's long form and that it might not exist.
smart citizen
Absolutely amazing. Your post clearly shows what a "Smart Citizen" you are. Congratulations on your insightful post and clear disregard for facts. Do you really believe that if you repeat something enough times it will eventually and magically morph into the truth? One of the tests of insanity is if you keep doing the same thing over and over again and expect a different result.
I am sure you believe that there is some master plan involving all those that have actually shown President Obama's birth certificate on TV and the Governor of Hawaii to create fake documents all for the purpose of making your life miserable and take away your liberties. Are you really that myopic or do you just resort to ludicrous lies and the spreading of miss-information because you do not have the ability to really discuss legitimate issues?
If you represent a "Smart" citizen of this great nation then we truly are all doomed to mediocrity!
Matt R-311068
Hmm, interesting I do not have a long form either; just a very simple Birth Certificate that is less than a full page long. I must not have been born here either...oh and I must be some commie as well. Keep saying the Birther argument over and over again to convince yourself. The numbers of people that align with your distorted thinking is dwindling. There has been ample proof of OUR President's legitimacy.
I suppose you believe in the death panels and kill granny vitriol as well. The TSA was out for a good time with their pat-downs. The list of miss-information is exhaustive where first admendment rights trump intelligent conversation on the internet.
Rather than trying to denigrate a legitimately elected president perhaps you should wish for his and our country's success.
Art Carney would be better.
This is truly amazing to me. FR announces a Presidential appointment--and one of some note, as the Press Secretary is a liason to the media---and all we get are jokes about the man's name. What value is that?
Peppered with 'commie' & Kenyan!
Aren't they 'clever'?
Feisty--we would have the hat trick of Obama insults if only someone mentioned teleprompter--which would be kind of appropriate in an item about the Press Secretary.
I would like to have seen a woman in the post but I am sure that Jay Carney will do a great job. And besides---the President has done right by women with his 2 Supreme Court appointments!
You mentioned teleprompter and lo & behold they don't disappoint! lol
See post #25 below!
Good Grief - they're so predictable you can set your watch by them!
GO STEELERS! WOOT WOOT!
It was only a matter of time, Feisty.
Thanks for the Steeler shout out!!
You Teabaggers and Rightwingers are a piece of work. The new guy hasn't even given a news conference yet, and
your already trying to chew him up. The only documented liers in our Goverment in the last 10 years where in the
Bush Adminstration. But keep throwing your BS around, and in 2 years you can eat it.
at first I thought O'Bama had tapped a new original resource for talent...actual circus talent. Now I'm disappointed...
Press conferences are unnecessary anyway. What they say and what they do are two different things.
Its amazing how much ignorance and hate some of you people have. They are replacing a press secretary and some how this turns into Obama being Kenyan? Again with this $@&#! U people need to get an education in moving on. But some people are beyond help, its to bad free speech means ignorant people get to clog up progress with the same old blah, blah, blah.
People making fun of Gibbs musht have forgotten Perino already.

People making fun of Gibbs musht have forgotten Perino already.
Yea, she got a few cold sores too. I wonder if Mikey exposed her to herpes?
Like we ate it November2nd? How about closing GITMO in a year (been 2 now with no signs of closing), getting rid of Bush's warrantless wiretaps are 2 lies that come to mind immediately.
got a barker that's a carney...step right up ladies an gentlemen..lol
"The morons are the ones trying to get to the White House like Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann who aren't clear about the Founding Fathers and founding documents .

What a joke this comment is. Our current president is only a "great orator" when he reads off a teleprompter. And Obama, Biden, and the democratic Congress support policies so far from the Constitution and our other "founding documents" as you say. Our Founding Fathers would be rolling over in their graves the way this Country is going. Oh yeah, and learn how to spell teleprompter. Figures you voted for him.

Don't you think Sarah read the budget from her palm on Fox Noise and still got it wrong is even funnier?

Neither one of you morons, Palin or Bachmann included know anything about the Founding Fathers or the founding documents!!!!
Sarah Palin: Go back to what our founders and our founding documents meant -- they're quite clear -- that we would create law based on the God of the bible and the Ten Commandments."
Truth: most of the Founding Fathers were Deist
Bachmann" "We also know that the very founders who wrote those documents worked tirelessly until slavery was no more in the United States." She went on to say, "I think it is high time that we recognize the contribution of our forbearers who worked tirelessly -- men like John Quincy Adams, who would not rest until slavery was extinguished in the country." What helped to make her comments offensive was her smiley-faced rewriting of the nation's founding that preceded them.
The REAL HISTORICAL CONTEXT...
John Quincy Adams is not a founding father
John Quincy Adams, did not write the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments
John Quincy Adams, died in 1848
3/5 compromise did not free slaves
Olivia-2991904
It really concerns me when we have the Tea Partiers like Palin and Bachmantout the constitution and yet are consistently showing their lack of knowledge. Name ONE thing that this administration has done that violates the constitution. Anything you come up with in your delusional view can be easily rebutted. That said it was a clear violation of rights with the Bush Wire-tappings and torture. I would really like to see how you can defend those.
Yep the founding fathers work tirelessly to free the slaves. We will allot them 3/5ths value and then we will free them in a Civil War 89 years later. That was the plan. Palin and Bachman are political embarrassments for the GOP and they are having real challenges trying to figure out how to subdue them and yet keep their blind followers.
Nice comment about spelling though. That was a good catch and worthy of comment considering it was clear it was a typing error and not intentionally spelled that way. I commend you.
