The taxpayers own the picture, not the White House.

I said this in post #22 and got ignored.

No, it didn't get ignored.

That was 55 posts ago, and sometimes we forget.

Oh, Frank, don't be so sensitive.  I know how it goes.

Obama must be practicing his rabbit hunting skills.....they're rolling the "skeets" on the ground.

The photo shoppers PWN it.

He shoots skeet as much as Biden sky dives. Next they will be telling us Michelle loads for him and cleans the weapon after he's bagged enough skeet for the day. One things for sure, the skeet have nothing to worry about...

This image is for the low information voters who need pictures to understand what's going on in the world. Seeing is believing. Here's the problem with skeeter propaganda; Obama already won the low information voter over. Basically, it's a wash.

man, that's one heck of a low flying skeet.

He looks like a little boy firing daddy's shotgun for the first time. If it weren't so clearly a staged photo-op, it'd be cute. Obama just had his Dukakis-on-the-tank moment.

He looks so natural. Do skeet look like wabbits ? Where is that skeet ? Has anyone seen a skeet hole ? I think I saw some skeet dwoppings on the gwound. Is this thing supposed to smoke?

It looks like Obama is shooting the skeet while it is still in the launcher.

Affirmative Action even applies to skeet....who knew.

[Undies]

Those DO look like his real arms.

The jug-eared Kenyan firing his "skeet riffle" reminds me of John F'n in 2004 asking the Ohio sporting goods clerk, "Can I buy me a huntin' license?"

Yep, the guy who combined with his wifes net worth is more than Romneys and 4 times more than Bushes, but the Republicans are rich and out of touch... K ****ERS!

This is a great photo.  Pete Sousa really knows his business.  Sun glasses hide the tightly closed eyes and the stock covers the clenched teeth and grimace.

I thought left handed people wore their watches on their right arm.

KC

I do.

Something doesn't look right.  It's too dark in the woods.  Can you shoot skeet at night?

Only on the East Coast. The Eastern Skeet is a timid, nocturnal creature, and can only be hunted by the light of the moon. They are more challenging than the Mountain Skeet, that have no fear of man.

I hope Preezy O'Choom ate what he shot. It would fill my heart with sadness to learn that he was shooting those innocent skeet for sport.

[Big Dog]

That is a man who is deathly afraid of that shotgun. Look how tense he is, in his arms and stance. He can't be having fun.

If Vladamir Putin had been there with him, Putin would have used an AK, while wrestling a tiger, drinking Wodka from a bottle, and screwing Moochelle from behind... at the same time.

A classic DUmmy explanation of how a ported barrel works:

17. It's a kind of compensator (ironically)

You need X foot-pounds to get the shot going at the appropriate energy, so the gas system bleeds off any pressure above X.

These are the guys who want to write legislation to gut the Second Amendment.

To me, the barrel looks like the end of a Daisy BB gun.

The ones with the knob you twist to open the hole and pour BB's in to load it.

And WHY is the smoke coming out of the barrel in a puff smaller than the diameter of the barrel bore?  (I'm not talking about the vertical plume of smoke).

It looks like someone PS smoke and a second, lower barrel onto a Daisy BB gun.

Come-on, Jason, spit it out.
Obama shoots like a girl.  

Not a whole girl....just a certain part of a girl.

It probably scared him, he screeched and dropped it.

DD, it has a choke in it. So the plume is consistent with being fired through that choke.

And every skeet would have shattered in the box, rather than face Putin.

Still looks like a Daisy BB gun to me. 

I don't shoot shotguns much, I don't know a whole lot about them.
