The act of consistently covering for your boss, friend, or other person, by dodging questions, making excuses, changing the topic, or even exaggerating or lying. The slang term originates from the actions and behaviors of White House Press Secretary Jay Carney for the Obama administration when asked questions on certain topics by reporters.
Person 1: What's the latest on that debacle? What did Mike say?
Person 2: I don't know, Mike pulled a Jay Carney and said it happened a long time ago, as if a few months was a long time ago and now it somehow doesn't matter.

Get the Jay Carney mug.Spanish word that means brother. Sometimes friends are so close they call them selfs carnales (BROTHERS)" You're like a brother". But, carnales does not mean homies. You don't just call any one of your friends a carnal, just someone close to you. Someone you trust. Not all your homies are your carnales. Usually a younger brother would be called " CARNALITO" a sister sometimes called a "CARNALITA" or " CARNALA"
FRIEND EX: We've known each other since we were young, we're like carnales.
FAMILY WISE: This is my carnal. my brother.
