This entire situation is stupid, not the least of which because they've misidentified which individual in this story is the real clown...

On the other hand, Tuffy Gessling will for the rest of his life be the guy who got banned for laughing at this clown of a president.
That’s actually kind of cool. He probably won’t have to buy his own beer ever again.

Taxpayers should issue the Missouri State Fair Commission a lifetime ban on attending.

The taxpayer funded Missouri State Fair Commission, reportedly given Gessling a lifetime ban from performing again at the fair. It is not clear to what extent this could be a violation of Gesslings first amendment rights to free speech, A civil-rights lawsuit against the Missouri State Fair Commission would hopefully clarify.

Yep, no clown Tuffy Gessling, no attendence. Sounds good to me. If attendence drops by 75%, that might get someone's attention.

Are the ‘oh so tolerant liberals’ going to put the clown (Tuffy Gessling) in jail with the film maker they framed for Benghazi?

We need an Obama Mask Day - maybe to coincide with the anniv. of Benghazi.

I guarantee the first major rodeo that hires and advertises that they have the “obama” rodeo clown will be sold out for the entire time the rodeo is in town. This could be a marketing bonanza.

Where are the people of Missouri and their Governor on this nothing issue...as in most rodeos the Announcer speaks for the clowns...did the clown have a mike on in this instance? Regardless the idiot who got the media to respond to honest humor as in any roast of a famous person, rodeos do a good job of presenting America in all her colors....Rodeo is the REAL AMERICANA...anyone see a smoke screen in this to blott out the IRS, Benghazi, Fast & Furious, the Obama taxpayer trips, his lack of decision on Egypt or any of the other crimes linked to this man? This is a no-fault clown debacule brought on by the Obama Brown Shirts!

Sorry, but I doubt there are many things that "intimidate" a rodeo clown (also known as a "bull fighter!), and it's certainly not a bunch of leftists who've got their panties in a wad!

So, everyone is still keying on the clown for simply wearing a mask. It was the announcer who really sparked the issue by his asking the crowd if they wanted to see him run down by a bull, as I recall the first reports of this were fans upset over the announcer’s comments, not the clown himself.

Obama really is beneath contempt. He serenely vacations while his people destroy the life of a rodeo clown, who makes how much per year?
To: swampthang77
But the rodeo performer can now go on tour to standing applause, across America. Some aspiring professional talent scout should sign him to a representation agency agreement.

Let’s find out who is banning the clown so we can threaten the banners with economic harm. We’re at war with the leftist Nazi scum, so let’s start acting like we’re at war and attack.
