If you're goin' through hell, keep on going.
Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it.
You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.

Maybe I'm wrong....
Personally, I prefer the..."Get off my lawn" approach.

My dog is good at discouraging unwanted visitors. (yes, I have posted Beware Dog and No Trespass signs)

She has the most aggressive bark and stance I have ever seen in a 60 lb non-pit-terrier breed. But - she is a pushover and a sucker for a treat. (which Fed Ex, Ups and USPS all know) Big Grin

She is also obsessed with ride alongs. I had the UPS driver come back to my front door last week and ask me to remove my dog from his passengers seat. Big Grin

Now while this is not a problem in Aus, it has been discussed at a Fed level.
Particularly when the vacc numbers started to drop off months ago, with the fear of blood clots.

While our Westminster constitution likely could allow for passage of such a highly questionable and 'can it be enforced' law, UN laws, and basic human rights, came to the podium and were raised and tabled. Such a law would likely never be approved.


When in Kirkland, WA, the folk who would walk the neighborhood on Saturday afternoons, door knocking with their 'have you heard the good news' or 'are you a Christian', my response was always polite.

"I have the highest belief and confidence in my faith. Godspeed to y'all".

I'm thinking something along those lines ...

Community Information Teams go door to door about vaccinations

BUENA VISTA, Va. (WDBJ) - All throughout the Central Shenandoah Health District, teams have been going door to door to tell people about vaccination clinics and answer questions.

It may have been raining Thursday in Buena Vista, but the teams were still out going door to door.

“We are able to hit a community with fliers,” said Yvonne Whiteley of the FEMA Community Information Team, “and knocking on doors, talking to people to give them information so they can make an informed decision as to whether they want to get vaccinated or not and when.”

“We’re still chugging away at making sure people are vaccinated,” said Laura Lee Wight, the CSHD Population Health Community Coordinator, “or have information they need to feel empowered to make the best decision about their heath about the vaccine.”

They’re actually from FEMA, supplementing the efforts of the Central Shenandoah Health District, and it’s not just fliers, although they leave one when no one is home. They’re also ready to answer questions, and even help out.

“They’re serving us in multiple capacities,” Wight said. “I mean, obviously, public awareness is huge, but also identifying people who really are experiencing barriers and they might want the vaccine but they haven’t been able to get one.”

“A lot of people that we’ve talked to are already vaccinated, and then there’s the group that are hesitant, so we provide them with the information,” Whiteley said. “And there’s always the group that aren’t going to get vaccinated no matter how many fliers we give them. But that’s human nature, and that’s what it is.”

And apparently it’s working. They say people regularly show up at clinics with the flier in hand, saying they heard about the vaccinations from the team.

“It’s been wonderful,” Whiteley said. “I think it’s been a success as far as I’m concerned.”

Oh, yes, because this is the very first those people have heard about any of this. Man, if you're going to lie, at least make it sound believable. Roll Eyes

More fractures between the factions forming the Potato Coalition:

Sha'Carri Richardson, a US sprinter, gets disqualified from the Olympics because she tested positive for marijuana.

The big news? Marijuana legalization advocates are getting pretty critical of Biden. He was hostile to legalization when he ran, he promised relatively little (descheduling, to whatever degree he meant that, and decriminalization, whatever that would actually mean under federal law), and he hasn't moved at all.

Now he's failed to take Richardson's disqualification as an opportunity to signal that America was changing direction on that ol' devil loco weed.

http://news.yahoo.com/presiden...nsion-183640381.html

I think the potheads that voted for Biden are losing heart, and may not really bother to come out and vote in 2022. That may or may not matter in blue districts and states, but it certainly will in purple or red ones. That, in turn, may wind up putting a hurt on Dem efforts to get out the vote in a way that leads to either more seats in the House and Senate or at least as few losses in each chamber of Congress as possible.

More importantly, in my mind, the old gang continues to break up. Basefook may be trying to kowtow to Biden, but the other big tech companies don't seem to be doing that and Google just lost a major federal contract under Binden for YODA. Big buisness in general is staring down the barrel of policies and regulations primarily designed to hamstring big tech companies but loose enough to hit other buisnesses and unquestionably indicative of a hostile state of potato. Union job growth is going nowhere, even with buisnesses near-desperate for labor. Opening the gates for illegals has quickly turned his border "policy" into a nightmare for Kamala Harris, who's openly being laughed at by other Dems for the chaos in her office. The .gov appears to be doing nothing about our vulnerability to cyberattacks, and can suggest nothing more than wearing masks again as the Delta Kung Flu variant is reported to be gaining a foothold and growing. Meanwhile Biden's horrified untold numbers of taxpayers with his insistence on porcine infrastructure spending and is pissing off untold numbers of working stiffs with sharp increases in gasoline prices and inflation.

I wonder what's next?

This one is classic Biden

Remember the issue that the people who pay absurd prices for Hunter's paintings will not be revealed to the public ?

Don't worry!

The WH has a solution.

The art dealer just won't tell Hunter who they are either. So no problem.

https://www.breitbart.com/poli...es-anonymous-buyers/

The Biden White House is attempting to address the ethical questions swirling around Hunter Biden’s newfound art venture, as officials reportedly craft an agreement ensuring that the buyers of the scandal-plagued son’s art, which is expected to sell for up to half a million dollars, will remain anonymous, even to Hunter himself.

Hunter Biden is working with Soho art dealer Georges Bergès, who is expected to hold an exhibition in New York this fall and sell Hunter’s paintings anywhere from $75,000 to $500,000. The general lack of transparency, which is already a well-known reality in the art world, has triggered concerns, particularly for the Biden family, which has been accused of using the family name as leverage and engaging in pay-for-play schemes over the years.

In order to avoid these mounting ethical questions, the Biden White House is comprising an arrangement that would leave all buyers of Hunter’s art anonymous — even to the artist himself. According to the Washington Post, the plan will see Bergès determining the price points for the artwork and withholding “all records, including potential bidders and final buyers.”

“The president has established the highest ethical standards of any administration in American history, and his family’s commitment to rigorous processes like this is a prime example,” deputy White House press secretary Anthony Bates said.

now why didn't we think of that ? If they double dog pony swear, who wouldn't trust the meth addict POS who has been the family bag man around the world ?

Aides Getting Nervous As Biden's Life Alert Button And Nuclear Launch Button Look Remarkably Similar

The Babylon Bee
July 8th, 2021




WASHINGTON, D.C.—White House staff are becoming increasingly concerned about a potentially dangerous situation. As always, the president has sole authority to launch nuclear weapons. President Biden requested that he be given a button that he wears at all times for that. The problem is that the White House also has several Life Alert buttons to alert people when Biden's fallen or had another old person-type calamity, and those buttons look exactly the same.

“I just have this feeling in the pit of my stomach that we are headed toward a bad situation here,” said a White House aide who asked to remain anonymous. "There have been a few close calls already."

Biden's Life Alert button is big and red and says "HELP" on it, and the nuclear launch button is big and red and says "NUKE" on it, a design decision the Biden administration is now regretting. He also has a personal Life Alert button he wears around his neck, but for convenience's sake, he has a nuclear launch button around his neck as well, and it says "Launch Alert" on it, which officials are now admitting was a bad naming choice. And since Biden is constantly getting lost wandering around the White House looking for ice cream, falling down, and calling for help, many are wondering how this could possibly end well.

“Let’s just be frank about this,” said another aide gravely. “One of these days he’s going to fall and can’t get up and start a nuclear war, and then we’re all going to fall and can’t get up.”
