Well, that’s the point. Lots and lots of pictures to get the one they wanted. A staged event, even if it’s not photoshop job. Without the smoke there would be no proof the trigger was actually pulled.

Ditto on the "ported on both sides, yet smoke is only coming out of the right side."

I was starting to think, just maybe this was supposed to be a new thing? Porting one side only. But the more I thought about, it would help / provide going off target. Not very desirable.

Just consider me a "Harry Markopolos."

Who is "Harry Markopolos?"

The man who tried to warn about [Bernard Lawrence] "Bernie" Madoff

Harry Markopolos is the whistle-blower who uncovered Bernie Madoff’s Ponzi scheme 10 years before the rest of the world learned of the biggest financial crime in history. While a lot has been written about Madoff’s scam, few actually know the dramatic details of how Markopolos and a small group of sleuths went about investigating the fraud that reached around the globe. In “No One Would Listen,” Markopolos shares his story. An excerpt.

Harry Markopolos warned the SEC about Bernie Madoff’s risky investment plan in 2000, 2001 and 2005, which he details in his book, “No One Would Listen."

Something I'd never heard about the "Bernie" Madoff, fraud, is Madoff, is proof that you can run out of sucker's and when that happens, just turn yourself in (telling his sons.)

And the Kenyan, in the White Hut, is a Fraud, via his Birth Certificate.

Without getting all anal retentive about detail as we all have been doing, I’m going to cut to the chase, nice and simple. The photo just plain looks shopped.

It doesn't look photoshopped to me, it just looks like it was part of a campaign ad that the campaign made but never ran. Who knows, maybe he looked so bad in the video that not even his campaign staff felt anyone would believe in Obama the rugged outdoorsman?

Second shot when only top barrel is choked?

I posted that same question this morning. If there were two shells in that over under, and he fired at a second target, the internal threads in the bottom barrel were history.

I’m not sure what this picture represents, but it has nothing to do with skeet shooting at Camp David.

The first day this picture came out, I commented that I have never seen a skeet range with a cart path an asphalt road running across the front of the firing points.

My point, which may not be much of a point, is that they may have only had to fire one shot to get it. With a motor drive (or decent digital camera) I can get the perfect shot of the quarterback throwing a pass every time.

I will also get a dozen throw-aways.

Entirely possible. Anyway, My gut impression of the photo is that it looks like phony, staged BS. Think of it as the photo equivalent of a snobby white liberal saying "I have friends that are Jews" or "I play poker with a black guy".

It just insults me. Like, am I so effin stupid as to think he's not a despotic gun grabber because he held a shotgun long enough for a picture to be taken? Just pisses me off.

Surely someone in the shooting community could find a Browning Citori, load various rounds in it (smokeless and black), take a similar stance and try to simulate this photo.

It should become fairly easy then to discover whether it is fake or not with side-by-side comparisons. Right now, our side sounds like those medieval theologians arguing how many angels could fit on the head of a pin.

Hmmmmm...if I recall correctly...the 'Won' had his hair dyed a dark color before the 2012 election. And of course that includes last August 2012.
Only since Dec/Jan has the 'Won' shown a graying head?.
Or is my recollection in error???
