Skeptical congresswoman challenges Obama to skeet shooting match
CNN ^ | Jan 28, 2013 | Ashley Killough

It's about time for some bipartisan...skeet shooting?

Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tennessee, joined a chorus of skeptics who questioned President Barack Obama's recent comments about his hobby of skeet shooting, a sport where participants fire shotguns to break airborne clay disks.

"If he is a skeet shooter, why have we not heard of this? Why have we not seen photos? Why hasn't he referenced this at any point in time?" Blackburn said Monday on CNN's "Erin Burnett OutFront."

"I tell you what I do think," she later added. "I think he should invite me to Camp David, and I'll go skeet shooting with him and I bet I'll beat him."

Congrats. The disaster stories about the Tragic Day I Lost All My Guns are getting better. I can just imagine all the horrible tragedies that will now be described. My heart is rendered.

I think that picture is a photo-shop - he’s in his ‘Golf pose’ there.

That is correct. Here is said picture:

And here is the picture above.

Good for her, but more to the point why is no one pointing out the fact that the 2nd Amendment has nothing what so ever to do with skeet shooting, or that the President's ability to shoot skeet(non existent)has absolutely nothing to do with gun control legislation aimed at circumventing a constitutional amendment illegally.

Even if he can shoot skeet, or has participated in shooting skeet what has that to do with his gun grabbing BS?

I wouldn’t be surprised if he claimed to play a round of golf with a score of 18! He is sounding more like Kim Jung every day!

Is that a real shot of him with a shotgun or a photoshop? If real, where’s the link?

It’s a photo shop based upon a fairly well known golf photograph. (note the golf glove sticking out of his pocket)

I don’t remember how to post a picture, but if you do a Google image search of “Obama golfing” the original photograph turns up near the front.

It's a photoshop. I read just a bit ago that the lib outfit that did it got caught and had to fess up that it was a fake.

I did not notate which lib organization it was though.

They just put a shotgun in his hands without removing his golf shoes nor putting proper ear protection any bonafide skeet shooter would employ.

You could say I am just the happy messenging poster.

I would think skeet shooting would be good practice for taking down those mini-drones if it comes to that.
