Zing! As Twitchy readers know, President Obama reportedly does some super secret skeet shooting. All the time, no less! Twitter users were looking for more answers, while also providing helpful tips to the Skeet Shooter in Chief.
Hey @presssec Jay Carney – has the White House released photos of Obama skeet-shooting yet? Because you know you would if he actually did.

Stop! Our sides can’t take it! This coming from the press secretary of President Photo Op! But, wait … he leaves the photo door open, kind of.
Carney declines to say how often POTUS goes skeet shooting. Says “there may be” a picture of him shooting, but he isn’t sure.
