Truer words were never spoken and I'm sure all seniors rich and poor are behind it.

AARP CEO Barry Rand said today, “We cannot continue to let insurers price older Americans out of the market, just as we cannot stand idle while millions of seniors are forced to choose between their groceries and their prescriptions. AARP is proud to endorse the Affordable Health Care for America Act and the Medicare Physician Payment Reform Act, and we urge members of the House to pass this critical package in the coming days to help fix our broken health care system.”

Don't forget seniors being forced to go to other countries to get medicine.

Let's also not forget that AARP also makes a pantload of money from selling supplemental insurance to seniors, and stands to make a whole lot more off of old farts when Obammy and Pelosi cut medicare benefits to the geezer crowd. Sort of looks like AARP is selling it's members out in the name of profit. Change you can believe in.... Gpurs...

Please, let us not forget that Seniors have had these troubles for years. I have seen it first hand in Physical Therapy since I first started pratice in 1995. It was the same problems for years before. It is convenient that all of a sudden the insurers are pricing older Americans out of the market. For those of you who believe that this CEO has not sold out his constituency for a health plan that advocates letting panels decide the fate of those seniors and undesirables they consider "A financial liability to the system", a plan that will rape Medicare of 40% of it's funds, I have a Bridge in London for sale, cheeeeep!!!!!! The AARP considers it's members sheep, and is pushing them to the slaughter. It is disgraceful. CEO Barry Rand should be tarred and feathered for picking on my Mom!!!!

No, No. I know it is not in Arizona, because that is where I have my Ocean front property! Guess what? If anyone(not speaking of you oldgoat) out there believes that Barry Rand, CEO of AARP, has not sold all members of AARP down the river on this farce of a healthcare deal, That property in Arizona along with the Bridge in London, and another in Brooklyn NY, are all for sale Cheeeeeeep!!!! You will not be able to beat the deal I will give on these properties. My realestate company BEATUM. CHEATAM, and HOWE are closely affiliated with current and past White House Administrations and Congress. You could say this company has been the backbone of our Government for quite some time and has a inside line on helping average American become prosperous through land deals. Hey, Beatum, Cheatum, and Howe were highly instrumental in the land dealings between the Government and the Indians and look how well that jewel of a deal turned out. ( for  the Government, not the Indians.). Yep-er, comon down and let me fix you up with some prime realestate, Cheeeeep!! Of course this is only if you are buying the Healthcare scam.

25 years ago, AARP was ok.  They had lots of goodies for old-timers.  My folks, now in their 80s, joined and even participated in their insurance program.  Alas, however, their premiums went up higher and higher and higher, even higher than other programs with other companies, and finally my folks dropped AARP, too high.

Not sure where their loyalties lie, except in the LIBERAL community, but I'm 62 and will NOT be participating in any of their programs.  Of course, they say any drop-outs will not reduce their income by more than 3%, since they have such a large following.

AARP, keep following the liberals and dems and unions.  When or if you finally come back to support the retirees of this country, you may or may not find any followers.

Dear Lord, lest I continue in my complacent ways, help me to remember that someone died for me today. And if there be war, help me to remember to ask and to answer "am I worth dying for?" - Eleanor Roosevelt
