About Obama's "skeet shooting" photo..
UK Daily Mail ^

Posted on 02/05/2013 8:45:22 PM PST by eastexsteve

I really couldn't care less if Obama shot skeet or not. The photo released by the White House shows that this is probably the first time this man has ever fired a shotgun, much less shot a round of skeet. However, it does show something blatantly obvious - he doesn't appear to be standing at a shooting station at the Camp David skeet range. Below is a photo from the UK Daily Mail of the Camp David skeet range. See any differences?

Could well be, the Kennedy’s did have two young children at the time. It looks like she didn’t have both of them sitting on her lap, or we’d see six legs! :)

Good grief. HE SHOT A GUN. Period. I don’t understand why conservatives cut themselves off at the legs with these stupid theories. If you want to debate what He is shooting at, go for it. If you want to debate how well He shoots a gun, fine. But He shot a gun. This photo is not photoshopped. My goodness.

And, I doubt the fence would be gone. It would be replaced, but not torn down. It serves as a noise barrier.

...and for safety. The only entrance to the range is from the back, preventing someone from wandering in from the side and getting hit.

Honesty, please.

I don't see anybody claiming that the image is a photoshop job.

I see a lot of people claiming that it is not what the White Hut presents it as, and does not represent what the White Hut claims it represents.

The White Hut presents that image as 'proof' that Barry Benghazi shoots Skeet on a regular basis. The objectors (of which I am one. Full disclosure.) claim that Barack Deficit Obamacare appears to be very uncomfortable holding the gun, unfamiliar with holding guns generally, and that give his body configuration and the angle at which he is holding the gun while shooting, he is NOT shooting at a skeet target.

He's just posing for a photo-op, and his lackeys are lying about it.

Barack the Destroyer, and his lackeys, are lying.

Again.

As usual.

They lie frequently, and pathologically, and even about trivialities ... like Welfare King Barry's bogus shooting hobby.

We can't trust anything coming out of the White Hut.

If he’s at station 8, he shot the house.

And that argument is fine. I agree. He doesn’t shoot often. They lied. But it’s been floated that they photoshopped it. That makes us look like idiots.

I saw another copy of this same pool photo with two more kids in the pool and a man over by the stone wall over his right shoulder.

Does anyone else find this a bit unusual?

The smoke rising from the port....it has no velocity, just gently wafting upwards.

I had another observation about that picture that I have not seen addressed. Why does the shotgun only have a choke in the upper barrel? Was he not expecting a second shot?

If he had a shell in the lower barrel and fired, it would make a mess of the threads. I've never fired skeet with an over / under, but I usually expect to fire two or three shots in rapid succession.

And Ted Kennedy is to the right of him.

That person isn't half the man Ted Kennedy was.

LOL ...reaching for my 6.5mm Carcano Carbine to try, once again, to somehow recreate the “single bullet theory.”

I saw this photo over the weekend that had the other people in it. I have looked at thousands of images and cannot find it again. That’s really strange.

Well, I hope you understand that anybody poking fun at you is assuming you're just one of those lazy types who just don't read or spell check, and would not do so maliciously if they understood your condition.

God Bless you.
