Rep. Steve Stockman (R-Texas) invited the rodeo clown who sparked controversy by donning a mask of President Obama at the Missouri state fair to preform in Texas, his office said Wednesday.
“Liberals want to bronco bust dissent. But Texans value speech, even if its speech they don’t agree with,” Stockman said in a statement. “From Molly Ivins to Louie Gohmert and every opinion between, Texans value free and open political speech. I’m sure any rodeo in Texas would be proud to have [the] performers.”

And so it begins...maybe an appearance on the Tonight Show as well?
God Bless Texas.
Now, we’re talking.
Good for Texas! The first thing tyrants do is ban jokes about them. Bush was mocked a great deal—but he just laughed. First Obamabots ban the clown—then they will ban Leno!
right ‘effin on!
God Bless Texas!
Get-R-Done!!!!!
Steve Stockman is interested in investigating the forged birth certificate that Sheriff Joe Arpaio investigated.
I just can’t get over that they are sending clowns - TO SENSITIVITY TRAINING! If the clowns have any sense of dignity, or lack thereof, they will turn the sensitivity training into one big joke. And they can start it off by putting a whoopee cushion under the moderator’s seat.
This is great, however is the politician in Texas inviting the Obama clown to perform at the Texas State Fair?
If so, good move..
Stockman’s hiring?

I can see the next Rodeo the Clowns comming out with a Big Box Labeled Senstitivty training, then a clown walks into it and out walks a clown in Obvious Drag and then tells the annopuncer that He is now very Sensitive...... then goes on to be chansed by a small bull bottle calf screaming and shreiking....
Hurrah for YOU!! A mask of Obama creates a PHONY media storm with the usual suspects getting the vapors.
Was there a protest from the media when a RODEO CLOWN wearing a George Bush mask was run down by a bull? Nah.
Was there a media protest when costume shops featured Halloween masks of Richard Nixon, with a real banana nose?
Masks of famous people are an old, old novelty item.
A number of years ago, Patric Swayze starred in a movie with (I think) K. Reaves. Swayze lead a gang of bank robbers who donned well done facial masks of former, still living presidents. They didn’t use “code names”, rather they directed each other as Mr.(president’s name). Did Hollywood complain about the insult to presidents? Right!!!
Maybe this Halloween, the scary mask of Frankenstein will lead to law-suits by Frankie’s descendants for painful humiliation and insult. Worth millions.
