Gun control is more than a political issue for President Obama.
The commander-in-chief, in a picture snapped last August, showed his mastery of a shotgun while skeet shooting during a Camp David getaway.
The White House released the photo Saturday, possibly to muzzle critics who suggested Obama was posturing when he talked about target shooting in an interview with The New Republic magazine.
The picture of Obama shows him with a literally smoking gun, its stock pressed against his left shoulder as he pulls the trigger. It was taken on his 51st birthday.
Obama spokesman Jay Carney had no comment Saturday on the timing of the photo’s release, just two days before Obama heads to Minneapolis to discuss his gun control proposals with local law enforcement officials.
But critics, including the National Rifle Association, charged Obama used the interview to convince gun owners that the President was a kindred spirit despite his gun control initiative.

Clearly another white house fake. Note how he is “holding” the gun as if he is shooting someone. Hmmmmmmm
This is fake if the gun has a compensator there would be smoke coming out of both sides and the front. Either just the front or both sides and the front but not just one side. Next I have shot alot of shotguns and have never seen so much smoke coming out the muzzle just more lies from the piece of garbage in the White House
#1 ur a fake u never shot a gun
3. What is your point? You know me? NO!!! So maybe I have shot guns? In fact….. So there!
The picture is still a major fake, A FRAUD, and it is only to fool obama’s useful idiots, those low info voters, like #3.
