From 2015: The Hispanic comedy stylings of Neosho Mayor and House candidate Ben Baker

Before he decided to run for the 160th District House of Representatives seat currently held by term-limited Bill Reiboldt,R-Seneca, Neosho Mayor Ben Baker, also a Republican, attempted to explain the true meaning of Christmas in the accompanying Facebook photo.

Baker's approximately eight-minute comedy monologue features a somewhat tortured search for laughs as he explains how ridiculous songs like "Frosty the Snowman" and "Santa Claus is Coming to Town."

Plus, he explains why reindeer cannot fly.




The catch- Baker does the entire routine in what appears to be an attempt to do a Hispanic accent, neatly capturing every ethnic stereotype that has been, for the most part, thought long ago relegated to the scrap heap of history.

And one more thing- the entire comedy routine was done while Baker was driving, a fact he mentions and appears quite amused by toward the end of the video.

And as of this post, the video is still available on Baker's Facebook page.

(Update: The video does not appears to have been removed from Ben Baker's Facebook page. I wonder if anyone thought of making a copy before it was taken down.)

That sounds more gay than Hispanic was my first thought!

Not that there would be anything wrong with Ben Baker being gay, if he actually was.

Wonder why he took it down? It has been on his FB page for months. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDpqfKQE-q0&feature=youtu.be&fbclid=IwAR3vqcwqtSEhpp7CZeFInXPiDD2xaVF8oSlHmVlK4S5JfDPkGgobk9knjBU

This is the most pathetic attempt at a hot piece I've ever seen. Do everyone a favor and stop trying to peddle your moronic garbage as "journalism". He's clearly imitating Jack Black's character off of Nacho Libre, but you wouldn't know that because apparently you don't have a single bone in your body that can recognize comedic value. Btw, 1. This is an old video, 2. He didn't do anything illegal, 3. Go back and actually do some research before posting your "news".

OZARK BIBLE INSTITUTE

P. O. Box 398, Neosho, Missouri 64850
Revised 2004 (new pictures & minor revisions 2011)

From page 19 of the "Student Information" section:

"DISCIPLINE

Government and law are essential to the proper function of any institution or group of people. The Administration of the Bible school will endeavor to foster self-reliance, self-control, and a conscientious attitude of obedience on the part of the student. Christian firmness and discipline will be exercised when necessary. Students are expected to maintain and exemplify at all times a standard of conduct in harmony with the purpose and ideals of the Bible Institute and College.

Any student who persists in disregarding school regulations, or whose conduct in any way proves to be detrimental to the best interests of the school, may be dismissed; the school assumes no responsibility other than notification of parents or guardians


MORAL STANDARDS

“Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the
same excess of riot, speaking evil of you” (1 Peter 4:4).


“Abstain from all appearance of evil” (1 Thessalonians 5:22). Rowdy-ism, profanity, slang, the use of tobacco or alcoholic beverages, card playing, gambling, dancing, and attendance at worldly amusements such as theaters, movies, carnivals, bowling alleys, auto races, intercollegiate games, Recreation Center, roller skating rinks, and other kindred pastimes are strictly forbidden.

The administration has the right to exercise its judgment in the prohibition of any
digital entertainment, whether they be computer games, hand-held game devices, or any other type of personal entertainment device. While entertainment and work products have been blended to become essentially inseparable (such as DVD/CD/CD-R/CD-RW combo drives in computers), OBI bans the use of these for motion picture entertainment purposes for students. Digital video disk (DVD) players, video cassette players or recorders, and all other television/video equipment are
not permitted in the dorms or the houses of off-campus students. Music which is objectionable, including gospel rock, is forbidden.

The Dormitory Supervisor has a right to inspect all music, games, and computer software, and to notify the student of what is and is not acceptable.

We highly recommend that businesses which serve liquor not be patronized.

The reading of objectionable literature is forbidden. The school reserves the right to inspect any books or literature of any student and to ban literature that is not in harmony with the moral standards and ideals of the school."
