White House Press Secretary Jay Carney will take another position in the Obama administration to make room for the new White House press secretary, Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf, known in the US as Baghdad Bob. Mr. al-Sahhaf was the famous Iraqi government spokesman who released wildly inaccurate accounts of Iraqi Army exploits against the US during the 2003 invasion of that country.
The White House's statement on the matter is that Mr. al-Sahhaf's background and experience will allow him to better deal with the many undisciplined reporters and their irresponsible questions about the White House scandals than Mr. Carney who was always troubled by issues of truth.
