Look at these well dressed MONSTERS! My goodness how they are just so violent and aggressive! i see how Nancy Pelosi thinks these Nazi’s are out to hurt people!
And I see Barbara Boxers point on how these Radicals are only interested in hurting DEAR LEADER!
This GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES!
Hope and Change to throw our elderly under the bus! (verp)
What if the pushy mob is right on this one?
Mobs may take on a life all their own, but normally need a reason to get worked up. This may be a time like the French revolution when things could not be tolerated any longer.
If the AARP isn’t going to support their folks, time to cancel your membership.
America…AARP is in big trouble in America and do not even know it!
They have endorsed a plan that the majority of Americans, and many of them Seniors, do not want!
If they don’t change their endorsement, America will need to change their membership in AARP to “cancelled”!
The people in power in this nation have no idea how angry Americans are at what is taking place in our nation’s capital!
Why not, America?
I know it…I feel it…I read it in every comment on many, many sites!
You know why they don’t know it, America? Because they have tuned out their constituents…they have put a deaf ear to our calls, our emails, our letters and now our voices as we attend Town Hall Meetings!
They want to come out in middle America and dictate to us why they are voting for this “overhaul” of existing healthcare system to justify their vote.
But that is not what a Town Hall Meeting is to be…they are to come home and hear their “constituents” and what they want!
They should come home to “listen” to us…we have already heard what they have to say…we have read it in the paper…we have viewed it on the TV…we have read it in their newsletters…we have read it on their web pages…when have they done the same for us?
The Town Hall meetings are where it is to be…where they listen to “us” and why we do not want an overhaul of the best healthcare in the world.
America…keep it up! Keep speaking up and speaking out…if your voices get loud at a Town Hall…it is just that they can’t hear in a normal voice your concerns!
Make note of who they are, make note of what they say and how they treat you…then when 2010 comes around…kick them to the curb…we don’t need representatives who don’t represent!
=================================
THE REVOLUTION OF THE SILENT MAJORITY – SILENT NO MORE!
1. GETTING INFORMED
2. GETTING INVOLVED
DON’T TREAD ON US…WE PAY YOUR BILLS…IN WASHINGTON AND IN YOUR HOME!
when is the mob going to learn that they are here to give aarp the money and be happy getting screwed by aarp and obamadeathcare
Those vicious thugs!!!
Oh well, I’m sure the Union volunteers will help keep the peace.
My wife and I were about to sign up for AARP. Not now! Thanks for your mindless support of a system that will eventually kill us off through denial-of-service. I can get that now, with my crappy insurance company, without your assistance.
Outstanding people. stand up for our rights. I am proud that these people stood up to these Libs who are trying to sell us a bill a goods that is going to fail.
AARP has pretty corrupted from it’s beginning. Cancel your membership and save your dollars!!! AARP is interesting in only doing the preaching and not the listening!!
AARP has been corrupted from it’s beginning. Cancel your membership and save your dollars!!! AARP is interesting in only doing the preaching and not the listening!!
The A.A.R.P. blames their members for walking out of the meeting? She was just working for the President and not for the membership of A.A.R.P.. It’s time to take our country back from those who think they know much better than their voters do. Throw the bums out of office who will not work or listen to their voters. Darrell
This is what makes America great, and for all those liberals that don’t like everyday citizens voicing their opinion, I’m sure you’ll be much more at home in China or Cuba where the government’s opinion is the only opinion.
Dr. 0bama’s care = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbJTBBoDFH0
People are tired and want to talk to their officials. Officials are not used of listening to the people they serve. Direct collision course.
Swastikas? Someone needs to get Pelosi some serious mental health counseling.
Cancelled my memebership after the second GWB election. It was apparent during that election that they were using my money to support policies/candidates that I found onerous and when the took on Glover as a spokesman – that was the final straw. Cut up my card and mailed it back to them.
I have a renewal coupon sitting on my table, but
after seeing this with the members walking out, I
don’t believe I’m going to reup, I think I will opt
to send money for lifetime membership to NRA instead,
cause obviously aarp is not for us.
my membership wiil not get renewed!
AARP has been the single biggest advocate of a “single-payer” Canadian style health care system for the last 30 years at least. They were behind the failed Clinton attempt at socialized medicine. AARP wants total socialism in the health care economy. Is it any wonder they don’t want opposition to the Obama health care take over? AARP stands for one thing – more benefits for Senior Citizens paid for by younger working people. They want a single-payer system so that all health care expenses including the fabulously expensive long-term care for nursing home seniors is covered by the Federal Government. That way, their 20 million plus members can push Congress to enact any new and expensive benefit they want – and the future generations can pay for it! More freedom loving activists need to get into the AARP reps. face! It’s time to say NO! to one of the worst socialist lobbies!
Is there an alternative to the AARP? I want to cancel my membership, the contempt that those representatives had for the membership is sickening.
AARP has jumped the shark like the unions and MADD! Corruption is rampant in this country. It’s sickening.
Even though I’m not 50 yet, I made it a point to let the AARP know that policies like this will keep me from joining their ranks. The actions taken by their representatives were certainly not inclusive, and it was clear they were being driven by some political standards they looked to set.
LOVE IT
AARP “claims” they are bipartisan but in reality they are a noted liberal organization that seeks to push more government control into the lives of American citizens and, as you can guess, they highly favor Barack Obama’s health care reform initiative. >> They can sure dish out their own agenda to their own members but as you can see in the video they sure can’t take a little “reality check” questioning from the members themselves can they?
Typical liberal mind set I might add. “Don’t listen” to the very people they are suppose to represent.
Quit the AARP now I did. They are self serving idiots.
Astroturf. How dare Americans standup for their 1st amendment rights. Obama knows what’s best for you. Obama will pay my and your mortgage, Obama will buy you a new car. Obama will make the US look like Cuba, just like Castro did.
She (the speaker) was obviously antagonistic – and she was prepared to say what she did – as will congressman at their town hall meetings this month.
I have already cancelled my membership, and so have many of my friends and relatives. This organization is not standing up for the “retired people”. They are here to take your money and give to special interests.
If everyone cancels their membership, auto insurance, life insurance, etc.,etc.,etc. AARP would be unable to survive.
:reported: to flag@whitehouse.gov
Hey AARP, Pelosi, Reid and 0bama,
Take YOUR “healthcare reform” bill and SH0VE IT WHERE THE SUN DON’T SHINE!
The more people see for themselves what the AARP “leaders” really are – a non-profit special interest group specializing in selling health insurance at a profit – the sooner the AARP front will crumble.
This group does NOTHING for older people. Just look at the way the female AARP staff speaker was talking down to the audience, dictating the agenda as usual, and reacting childishly when the older people refused to listen to AARP propaganda.
Cancel your AARP membership – that’s one way your voice will be heard.
I wonder if the “Lady” running the meeting for AARP is
even eligible for membership in AARP……
Just like the people in Congress and Government that
are trying to push through HealthCare Reform……
It has to affect them to get the proper service and
consideration……
If you’re not invested in it why would you care how
“crappy” it is.
I dropped them already
Is that her butt or is she towing a travel trailer?
AARP is pretty much a left-wing group. The sad thing is that so many deluded people know nothing about current events and political issues and think AARP actually represents the interests of senior citizens.
Figure it out for yourself. 40 million retired Americans sending AARP 10 dollars each. Thats $400 Million. Read their annual report to see what they do with your money. Family owned insurance business.
AARP has its own agenda and uses the elderly for their own ends. Now that the Baby Boomer’s are entering the ranks of retirees things need to be stirred up. Hopefully the lessons of Vietnam and the ‘68 Democratic Convention haven’t been forgotten.
I have been receiving AARP Membership literature for years, but have never sent them a penny. I would council everyone to drop their membership. They never poll their members, they just tell them what they should think without asking.
Considering that the membership of AARP are the highest users of medical care and facilities, you would NORMALLY think they would be the most concerned but this obvious proposal rationing…. but noooooooooo! They don’t give a flying flip.
Just another libtard arm of this socialist government takeover. You folks who are senior citizens have been warned for years and years about this group and the Democrat party – but you pull that lever like Pavlov’s dogs. CAN YA hear me now?
The threats they made for years that your social security would be taken away – did that happen? did you get the cost of living increases? did you keep pulling that just to be sure? and now your health care is REALLY gonna be taken away – boy, you sure out smarted everyone didn’t you?
I work for a consumer market research firm and AARP recently commissioned a public opinion poll with us. One of the questions on the poll was “Have you ever been denied treatment or services by your insurance company?”
I NEVER, and I mean NEVER got one respondent that said yes. Nobody that I spoke with had EVER been denied treatment by their insurer. AARP KNOWS this information and here they have their “volunteers” telling these people the exact opposite.
Ya gotta wonder, folks. . .what’s the agenda here? Why the lies? Why the collusion? It’s time for Americans to keep up this pressure and REFUSE to have this crap forced upon us.
I noticed that one of the guys who spoke from the audience, at timestamp 4:10, had a shirt with the word “Shrug” on it and an picture of Atlas holding up the world. Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged” is what we’re living through!
I am 61 – and I want to be on record stating this:
Government:
STAY OUT OF MY MEDICAL RECORDS
STAY OUT OF MY BANK ACCOUNTS
STAY OUT OF MY PERSONAL BUSINESS
STAY OUT OF MY IRS RECORDS
STAY AWAY FROM MY HOME (ACORN)
AND:
DO NOT TAX ME ON ‘YOUR’ HEALTH CARE – IF I NEED IT, I’LL PAY FOR IT! YOU WON’T FORCE ME!
DO NOT ‘ORDER’ ME TO HAVE HEALTH CARE I DON’T WANT OR NEED
DO NOT SEND ACORN TO MY HOME TO TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT TO FORCE ON ME
DO NOT TOUCH MY PERSONAL BANK ACCOUNTS
DO NOT TAX ME ON ANYTHING BUT INCOME TAX
DO NOT DECIDE HOW I LIVE OR HOW I DIE
DO NOT STOP ME FROM GETTING HEALTH RELATED SERVICES JUST BECAUSE ‘YOU’ THINK I’M OLD!
DO NOT TAMPER WITH MY IRS ACCOUNT
DO NOT THINK THAT YOU ARE IN CONTROL OVER ME – I AM A FREE AMERICAN CITIZEN – NOT YOUR EXPERIMENT!
I just cancelled my AARP membership. They are a joke and I am not laughing.
Obama is what you get when you allow illegals, idiots and welfare recipients the right to vote!
Lady Liberty is finally, once again, waking up.
I told the AARP to stick it when they first started sending me mail when I turned 50. That was 7 years ago. Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t the AARP receive tax dollars to lobby for itself? There’s no way that’s right. Blondie at the beginning of the vid bailed way too early, and she treated the audience like children. What was she maybe 40? Coward.
I’m canceled. AARP is in the pockets of the liberal fascists / Obama / Democrats! AARP sent me a mailer last week. They’re NOT getting any more of my hard-earned greenbacks. EVER! Rush is right on this one.
AARP is a business, and they take care of their own guys first. The members are nothing but numbers to them. AARP doing the bidding of the administration, and Nancy Pelosi, and they will be rewarded. More power, more money for their pockets. Smart seniors, don’t fall for their tricks. Cancel your membership and protect your own interests. The money for this government health plan is coming out of Medicare. Services will be reduced, and you’ll know it when you have to wait months for routine procedures, when Docs and medical personnel opt out of the program, and when procedures are refused for you. Look at Canada. Even younger folks have to wait months for routine procedures. WAKE UP!
AARP is a disgrace. They take their member’s dues and then SPEND THAT MONEY on lobbying in support of legislation that will essentially DESTROY seniors’ healthcare. . . . and the dumb biatch at the podium is confused that their members are angry???? This is the current state of America; if you are not supportive of the Iron-Fisted State, then you don’t deserve to even be heard!
AARP is essentially now an arm of the state. I would advise ALL seniors to STOP PAYING DUES TO THESE CRIMINALS!!!! THEY ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF YOU!!! THEY ARE STEALING YOUR MONEY AND THEN HURTING YOU WITH IT!!!!
Send AARP emails today and complain. The address of communications directors on the website.
Write comments on their site to their articles pushing the Democratic talking points. make a stand and they will
think twice about it.
Re:MikeCampbelly2K. Spot on. Best summary of the mission of the AARP ever. If they ever need someone to write a true mission statement you are the man. Good observations
Here’s a message for you Eileen. The majority of us want a health insurance alternative with at least a public option. Obama was elected to shake things up in the healthcare market. The insurance companies have been hosing us for years. Don’t want government healthcare, fine, opt out of Medicare.
Aren’t using Medicare, fine then encourage all your relatives and friends who are on Medicare or Medicaid to opt out. If you’re on Medicare or Medicaid and are protesting about public funded healthcare, you’re a hypocrite!
We cancelled AARP Aug 5 because of their HealthScare endorsement. Member over 30 years.
Interesting to see how the AARP Nazi cow responded when the membership did not agree with her comments. I’m embarrassed to be an AARP member. They clearly don’t work for the membership but for their own agenda.
AARP members canceling memberships.
While the NRA is gaining by leaps and bounds.
hmmmmm
Hey, Chris E August 6th, 2009 – 3:51 pm.
Are you one of Obama’s brown shirts?
Makes me glad I cancelled my membership last year.
the AARP representative wants to say they are objective and not in favor of the bill – Their facebook pages says different – http://www.facebook.com/s.php?init=q&q=aarp&ref=ts#/AARP?ref=search
I have repeatedly snubbed AARP, and talked my parents (78 and 87) into cancelling their membership years ago. AARP is a front organization for the “progressives” and any money you send their way will be used to take away more of your freedoms in the name of safety, health care, social “security” and other “benefits”. It’s a high price to pay for a little money off on car rentals and hotel room rates.
AARP, unions, and other similar organizations should be promoting/pushing the desires of the membership and NOTHING MORE. Any time an organization needs to “sell” an idea to their membership, then they are doing it WRONG.
Before an organization (as a single enitity) takes a poistion on any issue, they need to poll the members. If the members vote overwhelmingly in one direction or the other then that is the position of the group. If the members are divided, then the organization shouldn’t take a position.
AARP formerly stood for American Association of Retired Persons, but they had to drop that name when the limited number of retired members was not sufficient to feed their greed. AARP now sends out their junk mail to 50 year olds. AARP derives more money from selling supplemental health insurance policies than they get from member dues. AARP is one of those huge greedy corporations that appears ready to cash in on Obama’s plan.
Here is a quote from Andrea Mitchell–MSNBC—-”These people (you and me) don’t know what is best for them.” How arrogant of her and the other Obama butt kissers at MSNBC and CNN. BTW, I cancelled my AARP membership years ago. They are a left wing money grubbing bunch of dirt bags.
fantastic vid. Keep showing this to EVERYONE. The people ARE getting the message.
Never give up.
God Bless America
There is an alternative organization to AARP. It is the ASA.
One more thing…
The opinions of the organization’s leadership is IRRELEVANT.
A nother
A CORN
R epeating
P ropaganda
wow! the swastikas are everywhere!
And that’s another thing…where does this “child” AARP speaker get off lecturing and scolding a room full of folks that made this country? This little wet-behind-the-ears twerp has some nerve! Arrogance! Of course, look at her role model, Obama, the very definition of arrogance walking. What an empty skirt, automatic mouthpiece. I wouldn’t trust her to tell the right time of day. Go back to your Saul Alinsky book, little girl, but don’t try to pull the wool over us in this generation! We INVENTED rebellion, protest, chaos, marching, and talking back loudly. And, we aren’t taking any of it from you!
Wow! Look at just all the “Brown Shirts” and “Swastikas” and “Well Dressed” thugs in this, and all other Town Hall videos now posting on the net. Clearly, these “mean spirited’ people are just out to “Harm OUR PRESIDENT”. not. Stand tall America, its time to reassert our spirit, our freedom, and our liberty. Fight the tyrant Obama and his sycophants and we can give America back to our children.
It may be too late for us.
WHO THE HE11 IS THAT FAT-A$$ED BI+CH WHO KEEPS CANCELLING THE MEETING AND UPLUGGING THINGS??? WHY IS AARP PROMOTING THIS CRAP? AARP-MEMBERS SHOULD BE RAISING HE11 AND CANCELLING THEIR MEMBERSHIPS!
AND YOU DAMNED POLITICIANS AND SPECIAL-INTERESTS HAD BETTER DEVELOP A LITTLE PATIENCE AND FOREBEARANCE (NOT TO MENTION *HONESTY*), BECAUSE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE *FED UP* AND PISSED OFF AND THEY ARE *GOING* TO BE VENTILATING & HOLDING YOUR FEET TO THE FIRE! GET USED TO IT!
Bige for single Payer August 6th, 2009 – 4:00 pm HERE’S A MESSAGE FOR YOU!!!
OVER HALF OF THIS COUNTRY DID NOT VOTE FOR YOUR POTUS!
and everyone here knows YOU ARE AN OBUMBLER ROBOT! —– HE WAS ELECTED BECAUSE HE WAS BLACK!
HE RAN HIS CAMPAIGN ON ‘FOREIGN ‘ MONEY!
NOT BECAUSE HE WAS BRIGHT (NO RECORDS OF LAW SCHOOL)
NOT BECAUSE HE WAS A CITIZEN (HE ISN’T)
NOT BECAUSE HE’S COOL (HE’S DORKY)
NOT BECAUSE HE’S 1//2 WHITE (TRUE)
Obumbler doesn’t even know what’s in the bill, all he knows is he will control ALL of us!
HE GOT ELECTED BECAUSE ACORN RIGGED THE ELECTIONS! HOW’S THAT, DRONE!
WHO THE HE11 IS THAT FAT-A$$ED BI+CH WHO KEEPS CANCELLING THE MEETING AND UPLUGGING THINGS??? WHY IS AARP PROMOTING THIS CRAP? AARP-MEMBERS SHOULD BE RAISING HE11 AND CANCELLING THEIR MEMBERSHIPS!
AND YOU DAMNED POLITICIANS AND SPECIAL-INTERESTS HAD BETTER DEVELOP A LITTLE PATIENCE AND FOREBEARANCE (NOT TO MENTION *HONESTY*), BECAUSE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE *FED UP* AND PI$$ED OFF AND THEY ARE *GOING* TO BE VENTILATING & HOLDING YOUR FEET TO THE FIRE! GET USED TO IT!
OBAMA LIED, PATIENTS DIED.
AARP has been after me for fifteen years to join. I will not join because the organization is a mouthpiece for the leftists in Washington DC. When AARP starts demanding that our Federal government stop tormenting American citizens, I may consider membership. I would recommend that no one renew their membership until they start acting like American patriots and demanding that creeping socialism stop.
All you naysayers, please get off the medicare plan – and please commit here and now that you do not want to be covered by any type of new Obama led healthcare. If you promise you will pay out of your pocket for the great health care you are receiving privately, then I think the rest of us will be fine and be able to make the numbers work on the public plan.
If you have a great private plan, please publish the results here so I can get my $1850 MONTHLY prescriptions covered when I turn 65 in February. The Medicare drug plan doesn’t cover – REJECTS- my medications for Rheumatoid Arthritis. So since you people have the answers, then speak up. I’m listening.
These AARP folks make me sick – and also rather pleased that I never took them up on there “oh here you need our help to be your intercessor, old guy” offers, including the “free” automatic membership card.
To hell with you AARP – you are a political front.
AARP reps are just like our government – they’ve forgotten who they represent. Cancel your AARP membership and tell everyone who might have a membership to cancel theirs too.
KUDOS to the seniors who attended the meeting. AARP – you should be ashamed of yourself!
Did you notice all the swastikas at this meeting?
Nancy Pelosi did, and she will be sure to keep us well informed.
AARP has been nothing more than a wing of the liberal, (read socialist), arm of the Democrat party for decades. You can bet that a deal has been made between the Dims and AARP,with big dollars for them, to get them to travel trying to sell this program. That fat bottomed cow running that meeting should be ashamed of her conduct. Who does she think she is? Its time we took this country back, it’s been too long in the hands of the media both print and TV. Educate your friends who don’t have computers and won’t see this vid. Tell everybody you know whats going on. And, for God’s sake, vote these commies out of office. Not just Obama but every liberal in Washington. Pelosi, Boxer, Reid, Waxman, Frank, Kerry the whole lot of them.
The AARP spokespeople claiming that they never endorsed any health care plan is a flat-out lie! My father received a letter in the mail for him to sign his support for Obamacare months ago.
He told them where to put it and gave very specific directions, too, if you catch my drift.
Please contact as many people as possible to pull out or cancel AARP memberships. I have cancelled mine, my wife’s, and my Mother’s membership….. Get the word out that AARP is about a liberal agenda, supporting marxism and making money, not the concerns of the Elderly as they would represent.
It only took me 6 months into my first year’s membership to realize AARP was not the right organization for me. I have already let the membership laps and I do not intent to pick it back up.
I saw an AARP representative interviewed on Fox. All he could keep repeating was that AARP would never support a single payer system. He ignored the clip (uncut) of Obama saying that eventually we would get to a single payer system with his plan.
I will never join AARP because of all of the $ that AARP gives to the Democratic party ,even though I could really use some of the cash breaks their little card could give me.
In all these town hall meetings no one stands up and demonstrates any critical thinking whatsoever. It is a vocal morass of platitudes, emotions, and generalities that don’t bring solutions. The Republican opposition to Social Security was just as intense but there was no internet back then. They were delighted of course to get Wall Street involved in managing your social security funds. Let’s see some of the folks drop their monthly check for the good of the country. Don’t believe anything you hear and only believe half of what you see.
1935: 99 percent of Republicans in House and 63 percent in Senate try to kill Social Security by voting to send the bill back to committee.
1939: 75 percent of Republicans in Senate try to kill legislation providing Social Security benefits to dependents and survivors as well as retired workers.
1950: 79 percent of House and 89 percent vote against disability insurance to defeat it.
1956: 86 percent of Republicans in Senate oppose disability insurance; program approved nonetheless
1964: Republican presidential candidate Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan both suggest that Social Security be made voluntary.
1965: 93 percent of Republicans in House and 62 percent in Senate vote to kill Medicare
1977: 58 percent of Senate vote against amendment to provide semiannual increases
1977: 88 percent of Republicans in House and 63 percent in Senate vote against increase in Social Security payroll tax needed to keep system solvent
1981: White House proposes $35 billion in Social Security cuts over the next 5 years. The cuts include the elimination of student benefits, lump-sum death benefits,and a retroactive elimination of the $122 minimum benefit for three million recipients. (Congress ultimately enacted $24 billion of the proposed
cuts.)
1981: Administration begins a wholesale review of the Social Security Disability rolls, resulting in over 560,000 eligibility investigations in 1982- 360,000 more than the year before. Ultimately, at least 106,000 families were removed from the rol1s
1981: 99 percent of Republicans in House and 98 percent in Senate vote for legislation containing $22 billion in Social Security and Medicare cuts
1981: Administration proposes three-month delay in 1982 cost-of-1iving increases
1981: White House proposes $200 billion in Social Security cuts between 1982 and 1990. The cuts include: reduction in early retirement benefit; tightened disability eligibility standards; delay in the 1982 cost-of-living adjustment and a 10 percent eventual reduction in benefits for all new retirees. (The
U.S. Senate repudiated the President’s proposals by a vote of 96 to 0.)
1982: The President and Senate Republicans propose $40 billion in benefit cuts over three fiscal years
1985: Administration backs attempts by Republican Senate leadership to eliminate the 1986 Social Security COLA. Vice President Bush casts the tie-breaking vote to eliminate COLA. (House defeats it – never enacted).
1990’s: Efforts to end Social Security took the form of appealing to younger workers to put “their” Social Security insurance payments into the stock market.
Watching this video and the others like it is giving me so much hope. Finally the silent majority is getting fed up enough to stand up and say “No More!”. The backbone of this country. The ones who make it all work. I often just feel so hopeless as I watch these politicians (of any party) push our great country further down the hole. We really are on the brink now. God bless all of you who are standing up and being heard.
That one gentleman in the video is absolutely right: this is about so much more than healthcare. This is about our freedom, our liberty. And if they get this bill in we are DOOMED. Have you read the bill? I have read most of it now, and I am scared to death. The new level of control over our lives is staggering- and this is just the beginning. Once these things have a toehold they only get worse and worse, never better.
Please get active. Please read the bill so you can see the truth about what they are doing. Don’t believe anyone else- read it yourself. A group of us are working together to read the bill piece by piece and distill the most troubling bits. If you can help out there it would be great. It is at: http://www.freemarketers.com
But please do something. This is the time to fight. Just stand and be heard. And thank you so much to all of you who already are.
Uh, Stormy, I already pay for my insurance thanks. I don;t need to sign any “opt-out” card for a scialized medicine system that I do not favor and in fact, vehemnetly oppose.
Furthermore, I’m sure the “rest of you” will get along just fine until the socialized model collapses and eats everyone around it, including us who you mockingly suggest should “opt out”.
Why? Becauue the limited number of folks like you don’t PAY any taxes, or precious few at that.
And mainly, because government-run programs SUCK. Governments SUCK at crafting and delivering value to citizens: especially running the existing healthcare programs and social security system they have foisted on us in the first place.
Try getting your representatives to leave us alone, go fix SSI. And don’t hold your breath, Stormy. And get your paws out of my wallet too.
Thanks.
So when do congresscritters and liberal advocacy groups such as the AARP get it that at a Town Hall meeting there are times to simply shut up and listen?
Oh, and yes, these vile and violent fake protesters were so well-dressed, it was pathetic they didn’t know to be “real” (i.e., liberal) protesters they had to go without showering for three weeks, let their hair become rats’ nests, and wear their pants below their buttocks. Some of these fake protesters even looked like they may be wearing clothes from Wal-Mart!
That one fake protester who gave that long speech — man, he deserves an Oscar for his fake emotion, his fake outrage, his fake and manufactured sincerity! I haven’t seen acting this good since Ronald Reagan was in B movies! Wow, I sure am glad Gibbels, Pelousy and Babs Boxer turned me on to this astroturf show. Better than Jon Minus Kate Plus Eight!
I never dreamed that I would ever live to see a time when I am hesitant to even publish or speak my thoughts for fear that I would be targeted by the government for my excercise of free speech. I am in my late 60’s and will NEVER join AARP due to their highly political one sided support of these liberal agendas. I have never been denied any healthcare that I have needed, but have great fear for the future that the day will come when I will be denied, since, according to the Czars that Obama has placed in charge I have already lived out my usefullness. I pray daily that America will wake up and pay attention to what these people have said, written, and profess to believe about the value of life at various ages. I hate to think what this country is going to look like 5 years from now, if I am allowed to live that much longer. Anyone that would publish a paper that says that a young adolescent child’s death is more tragic than an infant’s death because they already have been an investment of training and knowledge is straight from the minds of people like Hitler.
Worth repeating –

Lisa asks – “Ya gotta wonder, folks. . .what’s the agenda here? Why the lies? Why the collusion?”
Pobbo is going to clue you in and spell it out.
First of all, this entire healthcare debacle is like hitting a hornet’s nest with a broom. And everyone knows that. So why do it?
Here is why -
Bank records – to STEAL whatever you have in your account upon death through government fiat. They will have communists such as Sotamayor writ along with others on the bench that the money in YOUR ACCOUNT is that of the state and not your rightful heirs.
Tax records – in order to retro-actively tax you after death for years and years and grab whatever they could not during the first year after your death. Family members who have inherited a home need to watch for seizure and and liens for years and years. Back taxes will be collected no matter what – even if a disabled person is thrown onto the street.
Rationing – everyone should know this, but just in case. Your value to the STATE will be determined by a governmental body. With more people entering the STATE system, and fewer doctors to actually see this influx- you do the numbers and you will see that there will certainly be rationing. As the baby boomers retire, the stress on the current system would be taxed, add in the social care and well, it’s a horrible time to be a baby boomer. Can’t say that you folks don’t deserve it after being the me me me generation for 50+ years… maybe it’s time you gave some back LOL… I know it’s a tough pill to swallow, (pun intended) but you have all mostly supported this Democrat cabal for years and years and as they say – pay backs are a b1tch. Rationing is a simple way to get rid of those not deemed valuable, so all you trust-funders, and non-google execs, I’d be a lil concerned.
Money grab vs. power grab – this is synonymous and this will be the largest grab ever. There will be no one able to start a business, launch a career, go to a medical school or business school in the near future as this will all be decided by the same government body that determines your over-all worth to the STATE – this is what socialism and communism does. They know best and you just follow orders. While the money is siphoned away in a tax scheme after death you and your family will be robbed of any of the generational wealth accumulation your family has acquired. Don’t believe me – just wait and see.
Ok brownshirts – report Pobbo to your betters!!! LOL
The crowd was very rude. AARP is not endorsing or sponsoring any bill. They, like anyone with a brain, supports healthcare reform in some way, shape, or form. If you want to have an anti-Obama rally, go have one. But don’t hijack a Town Hall meeting, point your fingers at an organization that fights everyday for your interests. What we have here is 80% of the population that does have healthcare saying, “I don’t give a rat’s a** about people who don’t have healthcare. Go f yourselves.” Then, of course they pat themselves on the back for being such great Christians and go clean their guns.
Bige…
Who’s majority? A majority of democrats, or a majority of the American electorate?
AARP has been a left-wing support organization for decades, and is in the business of making money by preying on the fears of seniors. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm asked if there was an alternative organization, and I wonder about that too. AARP has been dogging me for years with their mailings, and Hell will freeze over before I send them dues so they can waste it supporting programs that are and will bankrupt our country. I would join a NEUTRAL seniors organization in a heartbeat, but AARP? No thanks!
Obama should just lay the cards on the table and be honest with the American people of his preference for socialism. I just hope when Congress flips next year to the Republicans it is not too late to save the future of the country, and they are more responsible about spending than the last time they were in the majority. Term limits should be a priority along with stopping the Chicago outlaw express that is Obama and his cronies.
The t-shirt I wear to Tea Parties, townhall meetings and “listening sessions” is running out of room on it.
You know, it’s the t-shirt I wear that says D a m n Right I’m A: Clinger, Angry Mob, Well Dressed, Clean, Brooks Brothers Wearing, AstroTurf, ex-AARP, AMERICAN CITIZEN!
And, I’m proud of all the above!
You wrote, “Here is a quote from Andrea Mitchell–MSNBC—-”These people (you and me) don’t know what is best for them.””
Yeah, guess HER OLD WRINKLED HUBBY, AL GREEN-SPAHN, also believed that… and look where we all are now, thanks to HIS masterful jockeying with interest rates and other fiduciary responsibilities! (He ought to be sharing a cell with Madoff, IMHO.)
Hey old fogies,rush drugbaugh and slime hannity supporters, since your’e all millionaires, you should stop taking Socialism Security and socialist Medicare and socialist medicaid. Luckily you’ll be dead soon and we won’t have to keep paying for your lazy azzs…
why would anyone in their right mind even join AARP???
Since when has profit been bad?
Cut up my card and mailed it back to them. Called and cancelled my membership and when asked why – seling out seniors by supporting Obamacare, is NOT what I have given money to. Good riddance. Wonder how many others are doing the same?
Quit the AARP.
They endorsed, funded, and supported EVER Dem socialist in power…no excuses….no bitching….just quit or you are just as guilty.
