Good, the AARP is a parasite that rips off our seniors by the tens of thousands. That and they are a liberal group that uses seniors to keep Dems in power. I guess this whole health care thing is showing elites like these and our politicians sometimes you have to listen to your constituents and members.

What?
They did not know that this left wing political organization
was always acting in its own best interest and not theirs before this?

What an incredibly vapid article. It says people quit because of AARP’s position, but does not say what that position is.

At least, not that I could find.
