JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Missouri State Fair on Monday imposed a lifetime ban on a rodeo clown whose depiction of President Barack Obama getting charged by a bull was widely criticized by Democratic and Republican officials alike.
The rodeo clown won't be allowed to participate or perform at the fair again. Fair officials say they're also reviewing whether to take any action against the Missouri Rodeo Cowboy Association, the contractor responsible for Saturday's event.
The entertainment during the bull riding contest featured a clown wearing a mask of Obama with an upside down broomstick attached to his backside. Spectators were asked if they wanted to see "Obama run down by a bull." Many in the audience responded enthusiastically.
Numerous Missouri officials denounced the act after video and photos were posted online. Some Democratic Missouri lawmakers suggested Monday that there should be financial consequences for the fair.

Don’t criticize him or even walk in his general direction for 50 feet because evidently that gives him the right to smash my face and head in and if I defend myself then I am a racist and Obama will even declare he could have been his son.
You know last week I went to Google maps and went to the area that whole Trayvon Martin thing occurred, the went to street level. You cannot believe how short a distance Zimmerman supposedly “followed” Martin. That is the whole basis of liberals argument, that Zimmerman shouldn’t have followed him as if Zimmerman followed him for 15 miles. But he didn’t! He followed him at the most one block, if you consider he lost sight of him, he probably followed him about 50 feet at most! So they are basing their whole argument on a guy just walking in the same general direction as a black man. And from this they excuse Martin trying to smash Zimmermans head in? It amazes me how the media just buries all this stuff.
(Still funny though - FR rocks, in general).
Sadly, that came straight out of my own demented little mind.
