Re: POTUS Visit
Cue post about "all my friends, not including you Hen".
Don't worry. Just start bombarding them with emails. They'll soon go.
And then your self fulfilling prophecies will occur all over again.

TWELVE of the RAAF's FA-18 Hornet jet fighter bombers will take turns sweeping the skies over Canberra and Darwin day and night during Barack Obama's visit.
When the US President is on the ground, special forces will be close by all along his route.
Announcements on closer defence co-operation to be made by Mr Obama and Julia Gillard this week will be the culmination of 18 months' work by defence teams from Australia and the US.
Australian defence officials have been working with the US on its global force posture review, developing a strategy to deal largely with the growing military power of China. Their US counterparts have been working with the Australians on the local force posture review, ordered this year by Defence Minister Stephen Smith to ensure the strategies are complementary.
Teams of US and Australian officials have been "working flat out" for more than a year to finalise a series of agreements that will mean the US will not just be offered space on a base.
Free trial
They will be there with what Defence calls "full knowledge and concurrence", with access to intelligence and maintenance facilities.
The agreements focus on a significant escalation of military co-operation, including more visits by US ships, aircraft and troops, and US forces exercising in Australia regularly.
The talks have involved an increased US presence at a number of locations around Australia, including the big HMAS Stirling naval base south of Perth, an army base in Townsville, the port of Darwin and the Bradshaw Field Training Area in the Northern Territory. Some US analysts have argued the US needs to permanently base warships and submarines at HMAS Stirling to keep them beyond the reach of Chinese missiles.
After his arrival in Canberra on Wednesday, Mr Obama will move into a bilateral meeting with the Prime Minister.
Mr Obama will then host an official dinner at Parliament House. He'll spend the night in Canberra and visit the Australian War Memorial on Thursday morning, laying a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier.
Mr Obama will return to parliament for a meeting with Opposition Leader Tony Abbott, before making an address to a joint sitting of parliament.
He'll visit a Canberra primary school with Ms Gillard and go on to meet US embassy staff before flying to Darwin.

Re: POTUS Visit
Hello. We got the car in safely. (What a palaver!)
Now all we have to do is get the Pres in it, around town a few time and Bob's your uncle: Mission Accomplished. (Or so they say.)
My part has been finalized, now it is over to the Feds.
The dispensations have been provided, the road plans works out.

Re: POTUS Visit
I hope the POTUS driver remembers that they drive on the wrong side of the road, down there. 
Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.

Re: POTUS Visit
Bugger.
We weren't advised of the weaponry that was being carried by the Secret Service until this morning. As they will also be in areas of the ACT were the Feds don't have control this required my Min to do the approving.
Luckily, as it was a Sitting Day we knew exactly where he was when his autograph was required.
