The warning being:

That one? That one is from September 3rd, 2009.

Yes, what an amazing news story this is. Obama's PR people posted a photo with the standard tag they've used on their photos for the past 4 years. OMG!

Re: White House Warns Skeptical Public Against Altering Photo of Obama "Skeet Shoot"

Why didn't anyone notice it ?

No one needs to alter this photo of Obama. He's holding the shotgun like a pantywaist liberal. American skeet shooters usually have their elbow at an 90 degrees (horizontal) level. Only non American skeet shooters will have their elbow at 45 degrees or even lower.

With U.S. Marines providing the perimeter security for Camp David and all of the military around, why didn't they teach Obama the basics of shooting a rifle or shotgun ? I wonder how many were trying to keep a straight face.

I wonder what Sheriff Joe Arpaio is going to say when he sees Obama holding the shotgun like a foreigner ?

Here's the American way of holding a shotgun when skeet shooting unless your a foreigner. Notice the position of the elbow.

Like I said, distraction. You fell for it. Don't blame me because you seem to think this is some sort of huge issue when compared with all sorts of other things going on. Like i said, until obama shoots one of his friends in the face thinking he is a skeet, this is just republicans making up false outrage over a pretty pointless issue.

Interesting point, MSNBC is not a news network. it is a commentary network that does not use news in it's title like certain other political propaganda networks who do. So before you start whining about it, MSNBC at least knows it is not news. before you even go there the n stands for national. But i am sure you knew all of that, which is why i included it.

In a major public relations blunder, President Obama recently made a passing comment inferring that he was a frequent skeet shooter.

Who cares? Really, I don't give a damn if he is out shooting clay targets. As long as he is not shooting people for no reason he could shoot clay targets all he wants, or not shoot clay targets all he wants. You guys have to get your outrage straight. A few months back you people were whining because he wasted time playing golf. granted that still was a non issue, but now you are mad because he might not be wasting his time shooting skeet?

The fake outrage is palpable, but it is far from worthwhile. We get it, everything obama does is evil to you. He plays golf, he is evil. He doesn't shoot skeet, he is evil. He breathes oxygen, he is evil. if this is even a reason for you to be ticked at him, he is obviously not doing as much wrong as our last two presidents. A major public relations blunder is shooting your friend in the face and saying you thought he was a chicken, or a pidgeon, or whatever the lame ass excuse was dick cheney did. This is just a huge distraction.

Given his long history of involvement with promoting gun control legislation, the President's comments met with considerable skepticism an no small measure of ridicule......snip~

No, the problem stems from people like you who make huge issues out of nothing because of faux outrage. if it was anyone but obama would anyone even care if they shot skeet or not, or if they were lying about it, or if they did not want people photoshopping their skeet shooting pictures? No, because no one actually cares about any of that. The only reason it is an issue is because you have an issue with anything obama does.

Actually I did notice that he seems to be shooting straight in front of him which is a bit of an odd angle to be shooting skeet from unless you were standing on a hill.

MSDNC is connected with NBC.....MSDNC Shows NEWs All day long plus all their Commentary with their bleeding hearts worn openly.

"Who cares".....all those political pundits and those into politics. Course you believing everything out Obama's Mouth outright and not caring shows why we have the problem of an Obama in Office today.

There is no fake outrage.....why wouldn't gun owners knowing Obama is full of ****e not be outraged when this dipstick made the blunder and said he shoots all the time. Some people don't like liars outright lying while playing around or even talking about messing with their Rights. Especially when it is a guy who has divided the country up and polarized it more than what it was.

Actually the problem comes from those like you that just don't seem to know anything about voting, while rushing out to vote in those who Never were qualified to be a leader of anything.

We understand that those on the left don't like it when that ****e talkin comes Right back in their lap and is played just like those on the left do. We know some just can't take hearing their MAN get put down and ridiculed for being the failure he is. But don't you worry.....his 2nd term is just beginning so we have another 4 more years to pound on the Putz and with more intensity so that he can hear it with his Sanctimonious Azz.

Mock & load! Web jokers Photoshop Obama pic

When the “official” photo of the president shooting skeet was released to the press yesterday, attached to it were these very specific instructions:“This photograph is being made available only for publication by news organizations . . . The photograph may not be manipulated in any way.”
The White House planned, the Internet laughed.

The facts that the internet took the photo and ran with it? Like the internet is going to do with just about any meme. Im not seeing your outrageously outrageous outrage from the original post.

Its stupid because the same tag accompanies every photo, its nothing new and its been around for years and years, some people however want to pretend its something new and directly relates to Obama himself. Its a total non-issue and serves no purposes whatsoever, its a shame that people want to waste their time with this as if means anything at all.

I think the story was more about the photoshopping than anything, but I guess I could be wrong.

I think most attention is based around an idea that the White House is just so dumb that they think people on the internet care about a bit of legal script under a photo, and we're all supposed to giggle and them like school girls because they are just so darn stupid.

Of course anyone who takes a moment, a single literal moment, to think would realize that's just an absurd idea and of course the White House staff know how people behave on the internet. Unfortunately many people don't take that single moment and we end up with J-mac and friends.

My personal favorite is where you failed to realize this disclaimer appears with every white house photo. And probably has since the invention of photoshop.

While that is true, it has no effect on the entertainment value of the photos.

..so I put my dog's favorite cookie on the floor, right in front of her. I gave her explicit instructions that she not eat the cookie.

I turned around...and she ate the cookie!! The nerve of her to defy my divine command!!!
