Barack Obama: ‘I go shooting all the time’
President Barack Obama has claimed that he goes shooting “all the time”, while attempting to reassure American gun-owners that he respects their rights to use firearms.
Amid conservative anger over Mr Obama’s proposals to ban assault weapons as part of a drastic overhaul of US gun control laws, the president said that he was a keen clay-pigeon shooter.
Asked in a magazine interview whether he had ever fired a gun, Mr Obama said he did so with guests at the president’s rural retreat.
“Up at Camp David, we do skeet shooting all the time,” he said. “And I have a profound respect for the traditions of hunting that trace back in this country for generations.
“And I think those who dismiss that out of hand make a big mistake”.
Mr Obama’s plans for tighter firearms regulations were drawn up by Joe Biden, his vice-president, following the massacre of 26 people, including 20 young pupils at a primary school in Connecticut last month. Read more…

You absolutely MUST look up “Skeet” at urbandictionary.com
You’ll die laughing. Its meaning CANNOT be lost on our hip and glorious leader. Remember, he doesn’t go skeet shooting. “We DO skeet shooting…”

“Skeet” is actually a form of birth control practiced by the African-American tribes of North America near the beginning of the 21st Centruy. Visionaries of the time (such as Lil Jon and Nelly) recognized the inevitable and everpresent danger of overpopulation in their land and decided to take action. They discovered an ancient form of birth control used by their ancestors that involved “pulling out and shooting” (much like skeet shooting) during sexual intercourse, as to not impregnate the female, or “biatch”.
He might shoot a game of golf, but I’d bet he couldn’t tell you which end of a gun that the bullet comes out of. The ol’ Skeeter
I would like to be the first to call “b*llsh*t to Obama’s claim that he has “a profound respect for the traditions of hunting that trace back in this country for generations.” He has no respect for any American tradition.
