I think they dropped a ton of bricks on his head for no good reason. In other words far, far too harsh.
Translation actually is that Grant said it wasn't political speech, just a clown. If it's just a clown, why the ruckus?
Take a look at who started the thread. Then get back to me about Leftists making a big stink.
Yeah exactly ..... "whatever" because that's what it is with you cats...
Do you think it was 'moderates' or 'rightists' who were offended and put this lifetime ban into effect?
It's always a good idea to bring the antics of these left wing loons to the public's attention.
It was a Missouri state fair who fired a guy for going out on his own to make a highly inappropriate joke. I would have fired him too.But... this heavy handed action by the left has other desired effects I believe Obama likes.
It is a big deal! A rodeo clown puts on an Obama mask, which has been done many times previous, and is banned for life? Do you genuinely not understand the significance of this?It's the Cons who are making this a big deal.
I heard nothing about it until I saw the Fox Nation here making a big stink about what happened.
Then that's a shame, and says a great deal about the US media.
Whatever the reasoning behind his ban, I could not tell you, however as far as I can see, there was no nationwide outcry from "left wing loons."
Wow! Despite watching the news and reading this forum you still don't know why he was banned?? And of course there would not be an outcry from the leftist loons. Obama is their guy and they are only too pleased, it seems, to have anyone who mocks him banned from their job for life.

What is 'highly inappropriate" about making a joke about the US President??
The fair teceives public funds. They can't fite thr guy.
This clown brought politics where they didn't belong....

Was he under contract?

What politics? Since when is making fun of a President political? It has been done by comedians for centuries!
he made his employers uncomfortable, so they fired him.
He made them "uncomfortable"? Is that what they said? If so they certainly don't appear to be the rough, tough guys generally associated with rodeos.
"The extreme right"? Everyone who is not a loony leftists is laughing at these jerks.The only reason it's news is because the extreme right will find anything to bitch and moan about if it gives them a chance to take a meaningless jab at the left.
The extreme left did the exact same thing when Bush was president, proving that both parties are supported by stupid dildos.
You don't have to be 'extreme' to make fun of politicians. It happens hundreds of times a day. You may even have noticed it on these boards.

I said it was wrong. You claimed there was a vast left wing outcry for him to be fired. There is no evidence of that as far as I can tell.
Yes, they should jump on every story that a bunch of partisans think is a big huge deal.
The outcry from the left is not what got the guy banned. That was my point which you missed entirely. Seems to be a lot of that going around. Furthermore, he was not banned from his job for life, he was banned from the Fair (which I do think is excessive). He is free to be a rodeo clown anywhere else, and when this fair is over and the rodeo company moves on to the next fair, he's free to be a clown there if the company desires it.
If i said it give the quote. Why do leftists hate to use the quote system??I said it was wrong. You claimed there was a vast left wing outcry for him to be fired. There is no evidence of that as far as I can tell.
What partisans? People who believe comedians should be able to mock politicians? Who can possibly disagree with that?Yes, they should jump on every story that a bunch of partisans think is a big huge deal.

The PC crowd certainly appear to be leftists. Would you agree?
Wearing an Obama mask is no big deal, firing the worker and banning him for life is. And because this news is not in the US MSM, which is normal, that doesn't mean it is not being discussed elsewhere. In fact it has gone viral and makes the American people look like ******s.BBC News - Missouri State Fair rodeo clown banned for Obama mask
What? You've already forgotten Assassination Chic?
