Rodeo fans and conservatives defend skit mocking Obama: "Gessling was the primary announcer during the skit, in which spectators were led to believe that an Obama-masked stuffed dummy was standing in the middle of the ring, threatened by rodeo bulls. Instead, the dummy was an actual person wearing the Obama mask. When a bull approached the figure, he escaped, surprising the audience. Gessling said that’s the point of the skit. “The dummy ... comes alive and runs away,” he said. The identity of the clown actually wearing the Obama mask has not been made public. Witnesses said Gessling, who had a microphone, worked aggressively during the skit to energize the audience by criticizing Obama. “I know I’m a clown,” he says in one video of the stunt. “He just runs around like one, doesn’t know he is one.” Sankey said rodeo clowns like Gessling are expected to entertain spectators between rodeo events."Except Odummy will never come alive to the needs of real America.
