Jay Carney’s 6 Worst Moments As White House Press Secretary

May 30, 2014

Big news broke late this Friday afternoon.

Just hours after VA Secretary Eric Shinseki resigned, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney announced he, too, would leave his job in the coming weeks.

It’s only fitting to look back at some of his worst moments on the job.

Here are Jay Carney’s 6 worst moments as White House Press Secretary. Farewell, Jay.

 

1. When he said he knows 3 people named “Hilary Rosen.”

After Obama adviser Hilary Rosen said Ann Romney hadn’t worked a day in her life, it was discovered Rosen had visited the White House numerous times. When questioned on it, Carney claimed he knew 3 separate women named “Hilary Rosen.”

 

2. That one time he stumbled when asked why the Obama Administration withheld a crucial Benghazi email.

 

3. That day when he called a reporter’s repeated questions on Kathleen Sebelius “lame.”

 

4. That time he admitted White House staff knew of the IRS scandal and didn’t tell Obama.

 

5. That time he admitted that the Obama Budget wouldn’t balance.

 

6. That moment when he finally admitted Obama’s “Keep Your Plan” promise wasn’t true.
