White House Dared People to Photoshop Obama's Gun Picture...and Did They Ever
February 03, 2013
"Attn skeet birthers. Make our day -- let the photoshop conspiracies begin!"
You've probably seen the newly-released photo of President Barack Obama doing what he says they do "all the time" -- skeet shooting at Camp David.
Image source: The White House
The photo carried a standard notice from the White House concerning how the picture is used:
"This official White House photograph is being made available only for publication by news organizations and/or for personal use printing by the subject(s) of the photograph. The photograph may not be manipulated in any way and may not be used in commercial or political materials, advertisements, emails, products, promotions that in any way suggests approval or endorsement of the President, the First Family, or the White House."
Following the release of the picture, Obama adviser David Plouffe sent a tweet basically daring people to mock the image.

So naturally, the American people took up Plouffe's challenge. Less than 24 hours later, we have amassed a few of the edited photos that are currently circling the Internet.
Shooting both the American flag and the Constitution were popular choices for the photo:

Obama and Laser Cats also received many "likes" and retweets in the social media world:

The tutu seems to be a popular choice for the president's wardrobe on the range -- it appeared in more than one photo:

The famous fur-coat-wearing IKEA monkey also fell victim to the president's shooting skills:

We admit to cropping this one. If you've seen the original online, you'll know why we did it:

A personal favorite among some here at TheBlaze, the "Dukes of Hazard" edition of the Obama skeet shooting photos:

We're certain there are hundreds of Photoshopped images currently being edited and perfected. If you see one that we missed, please send it or link to it in the comments section below.
