Yep, Never mess with the oldsters. They have given and sacrificed much through their lifetimes to secure our nation’s freedom.

“Yep, Never mess with the oldsters.”

I’m not exactly a kid. I’m AARP eligible, but wouldn’t send a penny to that bunch of commies.

The head of AARP is a friend of zero, and contributed many thousands of dollars to his campaign.
Reason enough not to belong to AARP.

I smelled a ‘Rat at AARP way before Captain Zero came on the scene.

More please. Faster.

I always advise oldsters to cancel their membership in AARP. They are actively working against their best interests.

No conservative should be a member of AARP anyway. It’s not like they’ve suddenly became liberal because they support the health plan. They were liberals even 10 or 15 years ago when I first heard of ‘em. I believe they’ve always been anti second amendment.

Just recently I saw an add by AARP which showed an ambulance being blocked by cars as it is going to a hospital. They then had the gall to say that the cars were people who wanted to stop Obamacare. Even if I was only minimally aware, that add would cause me to tear up my AARP card.

What it should of shown was a senior who needed a hip replacement being blocked by Obamacare. Stupid nits. blech.
