Well we had the same thing when Obama was president, oh wait, then you lost your career for mildly mocking him.
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. The stunt took place during the bull riding competition on Saturday night. Rodeo announcer Mark Ficken, president of the Missouri Cowboy Rodeo Association and a school superintendent, announced a special guest: "President Obama." Another voice is heard over the loudspeaker working up the crowd and saying, "We're going to stomp Obama now." “Obama, they’re coming for you this time.” “He’s going to getcha, getcha, getcha.” “Yahoo! We’re gonna smoke Obama.” According to a post Beam later wrote on Facebook, one of the clowns also "ran up and started bobbling the lips on the mask and the people went crazy." In the stands, Perry Beam was so sickened by the scene he began recording it. “It reminded me of a [Ku Klux] Klan rally,” Beam said. “It had that hateful aspect. It was the way they cheered, the anger in it. . . . You can disagree with a government policy, but that doesn’t prompt you to put a stick up his [backside] and incite the crowd to say how many of you want to see him be trampled by a bull. To wish that on somebody is hateful.” U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill echoed Kinder. "The state fair is funded by taxpayer dollars, and is supposed to be a place where we can all bring our families and celebrate the state that we love," she said. "But the young Missourians who witnessed this stunt learned exactly the wrong lesson about political discourse, that somehow it's ever acceptable to, in a public event, disrespect, taunt, and joke about harming the president of our great nation."
Wow. You can bet your ass that's gonna dominate the news cycles for a bit. Edit: and ET's politics section. Here come the posts....
