August 16, 201313 yr The media and the left do everything they can to make EVERYTHING about race when it comes to Obama. Many fall in step (like you), but others realize everything isn't about color. I'd be willing to bet if Obama was a republican, you'd be singing a different tune. What parts of the shtick went too far when compared to the things many comedians have said about Bush, Reagan, Palin and a myriad of those on the right? If you can't see a difference between what SNL does and the Klan-like schtick at the Missouri State Fair, then nothing I say will illuminate.
August 16, 201313 yr I thought NPR was jammed in northern Campbell County. Nope, good listening most of the time.
August 16, 201313 yr If you can't see a difference between what SNL does and the Klan-like schtick at the Missouri State Fair, then nothing I say will illuminate. How was it different than other times when they've put masks on clowns?
August 16, 201313 yr Author How was it different than other times when they've put masks on clowns? It is no different except with liberals. I doubt the rodeo deal was a race issue, just like I doubt the bus beating with 3 black kids was a race issue. clown and people making fun of Obama and the kids whipping a kid for ratting them out, it happens.
August 16, 201313 yr If you can't see a difference between what SNL does and the Klan-like schtick at the Missouri State Fair, then nothing I say will illuminate.I said nothing about SNL, you know the comedians I'm talking about. Perhaps you see race because you want to. You haven't given me any absolutes, that's what I'm asking for. It's comedy, so what's different? Maybe it's the progressives that aren't ready for a black president.
August 16, 201313 yr You a big Diane Rehm fan? She's pretty good but sometimes it's difficult to listen as her voice can seem mechanical. Still, it's pretty amazing she's on the air at all.

August 16, 201313 yr Revisit fourth paragraph of post 51. Quote came from man who witnessed what top GOP officeholder in Missouri was so quick to condemn.I'm curious as to why there is video of the event and the clown, but I haven't seen video of the other clown playing with the Obama mask’s lips? Is one available? That is about the only thing I can see being racist in this. As to the "running him over with the bull", worse was said about Bush often. Heck, worse has been said about Obama, but it doesn't equate to, as you put it, a lynching.

August 17, 201313 yr I say we make rodeo clown sensitivity training part of Obamacare. You with me?:lol2: I say, instead, we make everyone take toughness training. The country needs to thicken it's skin. Over-sensitivity seems to be more of the problem...
August 19, 201313 yr I think I heard Friday that some "real clown" (Senator or Congressman/women) has asked for the rodeo clown to be charged with a Federal hate crime in this "incident"? Please tell me this isn't true??
