How many innocent clay pigeons had to die for her to win her gold medal?

An amazing feat, especially since she switched to skeet after women’s doubles trap was dropped from the Olympics. Two very different games. Plus Olympic skeet is much more demanding than “American” skeet.

She shot 500-1000 targets a day, every day, for a year to hone her skills.

She was 17 or 18 when she won her first olympic gold.

I have always been a little irritated that the media ignored her accomplishments.

When does Obama start apologizing? The Americans win in a shooting sport.

I hear that the President has already called to congratulate her. Here’s a rush transcript of the conversation: “You didn’t do that! You may be thinkin’ ‘I worked harder than everyone else’ but there are lots of hard workin’ Olympians out there. You didn’t do that.”

If Palin had decided to enter this event, she would have won easily. (/sarcasm)

Commercial TV Networks in the U.S.A. have not ever reported Olympic firearms sport results, as such. Firearm proficiency as part of a combined event (i.e., triathlon) has been reported, albeit likely with a twinge of pain.

I'm disappointed they haven't made Skeet Surfing an official Olympic Sport, yet.
