I just called AARP and cancelled my membership. The young man was a little snarky because I didn’t provide the correct membership number at first. Then he did an about face when I put him in his place, politely but firmly.
He attempted to tell me that AARP had not endorsed any health care reform. I replied that it certainly looked to me that they did especially from what I’d read on the net and heard at Obama’s Town Hall AARP meeting. Moreover, I stated that I didn’t appreciate how seniors were treated in the video posted at BritBart by AARP reps.
My impression after the call is that they have been getting an earful from AARP members.
I just sent them back their prepaid return envelope...empty.
Which is what I’ll be doing with all their correspondence. Normally I hate junk mail, but I’ll have a smile on my face for the rest of my life each time they send me theirs.
