State fairs sure are fun, what with the fried food and the rides and the 4-H Club exhibitions and the endless blathering of brain-dead politicians and the casual racism. Wait, what? A rodeo stunt at the Missouri State Fair has come under criticism after a clown donned a Barack Obama mask and stuck on a broom that descended from his backside. […]
Nice strawman ya built there, son. Racism is racism, even if it's directed at a political entity that would otherwise be a target for criticism or mocking. Nice job of also conveniently conflating private citizens wearing a Nixon mask vs. an entire skit cooked up by the rodeo association AS PART OF THE ENTERTAINMENT and done with state taxpayer money. If this was some goof sitting in the audience with an Obama mask, no one would give a shit. If it was the clown doing this on his own time and with his own money, no one would give a shit. But we aren't talking about that, much as you might want to pretend that we were. We're talking about a state fair, using state funds, not just mocking a president (it would be bad enough to use such a forum for political commentary regardless) but for a blatantly racist stunt that many of the people who attended and helped fund were offended by. It's not even remotely the same as some hippie wearing a Nixon mask and you know it- quit making excuses for these people
Awful nice of the president to take a day from his busy life to attend the Missouri state fair what with golfing being availible and all but I suspect he was picking up a load of meth and what better way to cover your tracks than to dress up as a rodeo clown with a broomstick in your butt
The update on Loesch&#039;s article: <i>UPDATE: Taxpayer-funded Air America promoted a Bush assassination film. Missouri Democrats were silent on how those public dollars were used.</i>
Of course that&#039;s a thing that actually happened. The &quot;source&quot; they link to? <a href="http:\/\/www.discussanything.com\/forums\/showthread.php\/55798-Audio-Clip-From-Air-America-Openly-Advocating-The-Assassination-of-Bush" target="_blank">A message board thread.</a>

So they never got to the mock Obama lynching?
Too bad. Cuz if there&#039;s anything conservatives know, it&#039;s how to do <i>funny</i>.
I just don&rsquo;t understand rodeo clown satire it&rsquo;s just too subtle for my tiny brain.
And they are not getting their Troll Checks in a timely manner!
So Glumm Bleek landed a new gig? Actually, did he just return to his old rodeo clown assignment?
You ask, the interwebs <a href="https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/4\/4e\/Dana_Loesch.jpg" target="_blank">answer</a>.
Racism, wing-buttery and animal abuse go together like ham, eggs and arterial plaque.
We apologize. We&#039;re truly sorry that you&#039;re so damned <i> sensitive!</i>
