Media Immediately Follows Obama's Orders to Mock Skeet-Gate Skeptics

Media Immediately Follows Obama's Orders to Mock Skeet-Gate Skeptics

"There are legitimate reasons that would explain the angle of his gun, but....
Because the photo is odd, some are asking perfectly legitimate questions.
But not the media.
What did the media do?
Because the media no longer questions or is skeptical of Power, and instead sees its role as protector of The State, the media mocked those who were skeptical......

That doesn't include tweets mocking skeptics that the likes of Ben Smith and a number of Politico reporters are gleefully retweeting.
Thus far, I haven't seen a single tweet from the media making the point that a single photo doesn't quite square the circle of Obama making it sound as though he regularly shoots skeet.
Couple important things to keep in mind: Again, Obama is using skeet-shooting as a political talking point to further an agenda.
So this is not an inconsequential matter, as some claim.
Secondly, while firing off this talking point, Obama made it sound as though he regularly shoots skeet.
But it won't matter that the White House has only released a single photo and thus far refuses to disclose how many times Obama's actually shot skeet.
You see, the media is proud to publicly proclaim that it doesn’t matter if Obama lies.
No, really.
How depressing to know a White House reporter at a major news outlet doesn't give a "rat's a**" if  the president of the United States is lying:"
