    Support Tuffy the Clown I'm out here at the NFR and I have talked to over 15 Rodeo Committee's about hiring me and working. Everyone has said "We can't hire you. This stuff needs to blow over first". What stuff needs to blow over? I did nothing wrong! These "Committee's" will privately tell me that I got a raw deal but they can't hire me and they won't make a statement? I'm a good rodeo clown. What are these committee's afraid of. Watch the video on my website www.tuffytheclown.com . Watch the video that started this whole thing! I did...

    It's been four days since the controversial performance of a Missouri State Fair rodeo clown dressed as Obama -- but the condemning statements and the calls for investigations continue to roll in.

Ficken, his attorney says, is trying to focus his energy on his real job as superintendent of the Boonville School District. School officials, however, now say they are in the process of hiring an outside investigator to determine if any...

    The Obama-loving media are totally apoplectic about revelations of a rodeo clown wearing an Obama mask during a bull riding competition Saturday at the Missouri State Fair in Sedalia. Maybe these folks should report that these things aren't that unusual at such events, and that in 1994, a bull attacked a dummy wearing a George H.W. Bush mask without the world coming to an end, anybody being fired, or any press outrage.

    Rodeo fans and conservatives by the thousands rode to the defense of a rodeo clown Tuesday, less than 72 hours after he took part in a controversial weekend skit involving a masked figure of President Barack Obama. But the passionate support did not overcome the lingering anger over the Saturday skit at the Missouri State Fair. The president of the group that organized the rodeo — Mark Ficken — resigned Tuesday, blaming the group’s failure to sanction the clown for his behavior. It marked a third straight day of heated disagreement over the implications of the rodeo stunt. “I think...
