there was something like 80K fans at the Iowa State/Kansas game yesterday, we drove past the stadium and witnessed thousands of spectators hanging around tail gating and not nary a mask in sight. And no social distancing either. I think most americans have hit a wall and they're going to tell the dwarf, the sniffer and the ho, what to do with their turkey for the holidays!
ha ha that's funny!!
A control freak in a lab coat has no say when it comes to my family plans over the holidays.

Judging by the size of football and baseball crowds lately, it looks like a whole lot of people have told him to pound sand.
but they had to have shots to get in the game? So they are feeling smug and safe? False security.

Neither here nor there.

Not here you don't have to have proof to get into the game. And as the guy who went to the Tennis Open, some huge match with thousands in attendence, said the shot was required and you had to show your papers. People were holding up pieces of junk mail and the guards were letting them into the arena. So there's that.

Oh yeah I see now. I'm in communist NY state behind enemy lines. Ha ha junk mail. That's hilarious!!!

So today Fauci stepped back from Christmas and said he hoped everything would be better by Christmas and that conservatives were just being mean about his interviews on Sunday. If he is really worried about Conservatives view his opinions he should stay off television programs talking his mouth off. No one will miss has babble.

Update: He was taken out of context, totally misinterpreted, and what he REALLY meant was that you CAN get together if you're fully vaxxed, unless we need more lockdowns, which can totally happen at any time!

Fair use cited so on and so forth as Flip Flop Fauci fudges the facts again.


Fauci Flop-Flops Again: Christmas Is Back On... For The Vaxx'd
by Tyler Durden
Tuesday, Oct 05, 2021 - 12:40 PM

Late last week, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the highest paid bureaucrat in the entire federal government said during a weekend interview that it's "too early to tell" whether Americans should be allowed to gather with their family members on Christmas this year, potentially opening the door to another holiday of isolation.

The comment - despite Dr. Fauci's frazzled insistence that he had once again been "taken out of context" - unsurprisingly shocked millions of Americans, who have already sacrificed one holiday season (last year's) to government-imposed COVID restrictions. At the time, Dr. Fauci was speaking on Face the Nation, telling CBS News host Margaret Brennan that whether "we can gather for Christmas, or it's just too soon to tell." This came just one day after Fauci was asked by whether “we can gather for Christmas, or it’s just too soon to tell."
"You know Margaret; it’s just too soon to tell," Fauci responded. "We’ve just got to concentrate on continuing to get those numbers down and not try to jump ahead by weeks or months and say what we’re going to do at a particular time. Let’s focus like a laser on continuing to get those cases down. And we can do it by people getting vaccinated and also, in the situation where boosters are appropriate, to get people boosted."


And so, unsurprisingly, Dr. Fauci did another interview late Monday, spent the time desperately backpedaling his comment about the possibility of another ZOOM Christmas, while chiding the media for taking his comments (which seemed clear enough to us) "out of context".


So let's let the audience be the judge. Here's Dr. Fauci's Face the Nation interview from last week.

Speaking Monday during an interview on CNN, Dr. Fauci backpedaled his prior remarks, insisting his prior remarks on holiday gatherings were "misinterpreted" and "taken completely out of context".

Right now, Americans can fully expect to spend the holidays with their families, Dr. Fauci said (of course, this presumably precludes the emergence of another "hyper-threatening" COVID strain). "I will be spending Christmas with my family, and I encourage people, particularly the vaccinated people who are protected."
Yet, Dr. Fauci of course added a giant caveat on to all of this: if COVID numbers start to climb again - an inevitable result (according to Dr. Fauci) of not enough people getting vaccinated - then the restrictions on movement and freedom could always be reinstated.

He concluded by saying "I encourage people, particularly the vaccinated people who are protected, to have a good, normal Christmas with your family. But … the way all of the other disinformation goes around, you say something talking about a landmark of a time, and it gets misinterpreted that I’m saying you can’t spend family Christmas time, which is nonsense. You can."

Here's that clip below:

Assuming the virus continues to wane, Dr. Fauci would probably be correct about a low-maintenance holiday. But as with everything else, the next scary variant headline, or surge in cases across one or two states with lower vax penetration, could cause all of that to change.

A major feature of the plague is to keep the herd off-balance and stressed. The mixed messages are carefully scripted, like the intentionally misleading announcement of Pfizer ~approval.

When you realize that confusion is their goal, it makes a lot more sense.

I work with someone who is terrified of catching. Covid from me as I am not vaccinated. She is running out to get the booster since I am still here and got a religious exemption.
She'd be the first to catch covid from another vaxed person.

So let me see if I understand. Take shots that can kill, give you heart attacks or blood clots, and wear off to no protection from the virus in six months, or wash my hands, wear a mask indoors, and avoid large crowds indoors and limit contact outdoors, and 22 months after the great pandemic still haven't had this nasty stuff. Odds are I'll die of a car wreck caused by a cell phone driver quicker than the China virus. Of course I don't watch main stream media or the view. I have taken the weekend off from all news and I survived.
Yeah, you got it right, Night Breeze...

We just got back from Myrtle Beach. It was Biker week and every place was packed. Except for the employees in the supermarket there were no masks to be seen. We're not dead yet... we'll see in 2 weeks.

There are a few still listening. I see them wearing a mask while driving in a car by themselves. And the guy at walmart the other day who told me I needed to wear a mask outside.
I will not take chances, for the sake of my immune compromised wife.

I wear an n-95 or P-100 mask every time I leave my house.

I do not expect you to do the same. I respect both those who mask up, and those who do not.

Not to me they aren’t.

President Nelson is so afraid of loosing his medical license, he is compromising the health of some of his followers with this bad advice, IMHO...

I never thought I would live to see the day when I said that about one of the Presidents of the church...
He's 97. I doubt he's afraid of losing his license. Chances are it is lapsed anyway. I get your point, though. Oaks is up next. He used to be my SP. I never thought of him as a warm soul. Very legalistic and sort of cold. But, I saw him cut up in a road show once.
