Hey, lol, I just spent hours making the cartoon - wasn’t thinking about left or right but he does have it against his left shoulder. I would place it against my right shoulder!

asked why he was shooting black powder.

Couple of possible theories on the smoke one of which is that he didn't shoot anything and the smoke was Photoshopped in by clueless minions. Or - using a blank shell would allow unburned gunpowder to exit the muzzle, although modern smokeless powder still wouldn't produce that much smoke. There are a lot of threads discussing this now... And a whole bunch of photos that are at least as true as his multilayered PDF birth cert!

I get the basic overall thing with Dukakis, but what did he do wrong/incorrectly?

Wow. THAT was quick!

Now if we could just get the birth certificate, college records, etc that fast.

With the picture blown up, now none of it looks right. The end of the muzzle is orange, and where the ports are drilled, you don’t see any smoke coming out.

Whoever organized this, it’s such a poor excuse for a photo-op that the person ought to be fired. We’re going to tear this thing apart.

I’ve been wearing a watch on my right wrist for as long as I can remember. Also went through a period of a few years when I used to sleep with a digital watch on my wrist.

About the only thing I don’t do left handed is use scissors. Everything else, from writing to throwing, including playing guitar, I do left handed.

I’ve used regular firearms (by that I mean right-side ejection) and didn’t really have a problem with the shell ejecting in front of my face, mostly because it’s so fast. Though there was one instance when I was using a 10/22 and a case ejected, bounced off the wall and went down my shirt. Thankfully it cooled off pretty quick.

That will NOT end well...

I'd like to talk to the brain surgeon that removed the scope from her skull.

I use a Browning BPS (bottom eject). You don’t have to go looking for them, they right in front of your feet.

Hey, we want a video, not just some crappy picture. I want to see him loading (showing us a close of of the shells coming out of the box, shooting both, reloading, etc.)

C’mon. Where’s our video?

We demand a video. The days of single photos is over, mr. president. This is the video era! Get with it. I thought you were mr. high tech. Wassa matta? Chicken to take the video challenge?

If the gun (shotgun) did anything from the right, it would be the first time that Obama ever did anything from the RIGHT. And probably the last time, too.

I’d like to think that he was just “blowin” smoke”.

Dick Cheney. Report to the Skeet area immediately. Your replacement partner is there.

When will the pictures of the kenyan marxist engaging in homosexual sex be published?

When?

When the “right people” are through with him.

His real past is out there, awaiting the right people to expose it.

His purported history is totally conjured. Created out of whole cloth. Nothing but lies, hence the pieces do not fit.

Rhambolina has probably shot his share of skeet with Dear Leader too.

Those restrictions are on other WH photos of him. I have seen it before.

Could be the plastic wadding. If there was shot in that shell it should be visible just in front of the yellow wad. Looks like a blank to me.

Hope the guy running the trap was OK, cause he sure as ..... wasn't shooting the pidge!
