AARP Bashes Obama For Using It To Promote Himself in Debate

The AARP ripped President Barack Obama for using the organization’s name to support himself politically during Wednesday evening’s presidential debate.
“While we respect the rights of each campaign to make its case to voters, AARP has never consented to the use of its name by any candidate or political campaign,” AARP vice president John Hishta said in a statement immediately after the debate. “AARP is a nonpartisan organization, and we do not endorse political candidates nor coordinate with any candidate or political party.”
The president mentioned AARP to support his attack on Romney’s Medicare plan.

This is a JOKE. AARP worked very hard to get the obama health care bill passed for monitary reasons. AARP stood to make a big profit and they know it.

If you're a member of AARP, i suggest you leave them and google other "seniors" organizations that aren't partisan, liberal and greedy like this organization. then join with them.

I started receiving their litature and I put it in another envelope and sent it right back to them with a note stating for them to never send me another thing and shame on them for supporting Obamacare which not only cuts but raids the Medicare fund. That was over a year ago and I haven't heard a word from them since.

AARP owns Obamacare, they fought to force this monstrous bill through Congress so they can make billions from their medigap insurance program. They screwed seniors and everyone else and now they are trying to cover their butts. Lying liars.
