The White House finally released one (1) picture of Barack Obama supposedly shooting sheet, as he does "all the time". To be fair, the caption does say he is shooting "clay targets". Nothing says the targets are in any way "moving". (Note: Most skeet are not shot on the horizon, as the president appears to be aiming.)
By comparison, the president likes to golf and we have hundreds if not thousands of pictures of him golfing. Forgive my skepticism if one staged photograph does not reflect genuine interest in anything other than being tired of caught in yet another meaningless lie.
Update: Prudence (@dennygirltwo) Noticed the following:
Aug 4, the day Barry was supposedly shooting skeet, was a day Reuters reported him golfing, and then going to Camp David for a "quiet evening". Now, I guess it is theoretically possible for him to have done both, but I find it hard to imagine that he would spend his birthday ding something he enjoys and is evidently fairly god at, to rush over to Camp David to squeeze in a little noisy skeet shooting for his quiet evening. Especially since, if he does it at all, he probably sucks at it. He might have squeezed in a couple hands of Old Maid and a hockey game, too, but I doubt it.
Update II: I just saw the CBS Evening News, who reported the release of the picture uncritically, so there must not be anything to see here. Move along!
