To the many cynics who doubted that President Obama has, in fact, been skeet shooting, look at the photograph.
The image was captured last August and shows the president displaying solid form while shooting clay targets at Camp David.
This evidence of Obama shooting a shotgun was released by the White House to silence critics who became cynical after Obama answered during a New Republic interview: "Yes, in fact, up at Camp David, we do skeet shooting all the time."
That comment prompted Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R., Tenn.), to challenge the president to a competition, and to predict victory.
In light of the photograph, NPR states: "Perhaps the next question is one Rep. Blackburn would like to ask: 'How good is he?' "

Hey, NPR. Perhaps Obama should accept Rep. Blackburn's challenge but of course he won't, he'd show the country how inept he is at shooting.
