On her MSNBC show, Andrea Mitchell claims that during an interview with New Republic editors, President Obama said only that his guests at Camp David shot skeet, not himself.  But New Republic editor Chris Hughes, one of the interviewers, tells Mitchell that in response to the "point-blank" question as to whether he had ever fired a gun, Obama's answer was "yeah, we go skeet shooting all the time up at Camp David."
