AARP and some members of the AMA are nothing more than legal prostitutes.
How can AARP justify its claim to represent the interests of senior citizens by advocating passage of health care legislation, before the Congress? Cutting between $400 and $500 billion dollars from Medicare while 30 million baby boomers will be added to the program, can not be justified. The claim that eliminating waste and fraud will occur, is only a pipe dream. I contend waste and fraud will increase with more participants, as Congress is the "Poster Boy" for waste and fraud.
A panel that will determine, based on cost, if a patient will receive medical treatment could, indeed, be a death panel. Considering the statistical probability of a successful outcome is outrageous. This brings us to the prostitutes in the AMA. They traded their oath for protection of their compensation. Proof positive that they are engaged in the oldest profession.
Many, if not all, politicians have long been recognized as prostitutes. Despite their protests to the contrary, they sell their votes for contributions. In time we will learn what has been offered to AARP and the AMA for their support. It is highly unlikely that it will benefit the average citizen.

AARP endorsed this bill because AARP sells gap insurance to seniors to fill in the gaps in their Medicare coverage. They stand to make a windfall with the $400 billion proposed in the bill for Medicare cuts.
Joel,
As soon as I saw 'death panel", and the fact that you still believed in that fantasy, I gave up on your article. Seriously, get a clue!
