AARP stands to make $1 billion over the next 10 years on Obamacare. Bipartisan? Please!

I used to live in thew WDC area. The AARP main office building is located in Arlington VA across from downtown WDC. It is an opulent palace. I found it very interesting that AARP members are not allowed inside that building. AARP is a big rip-off on its members. Non-partisan? ...Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

DH just retired and we are getting flooded with AARP-Crap.

"AARP membership must be hurting after their support of Obamacare, otherwise why not continue to back Obama? Well you AARPholes, time to pay the piper for your support of that fascist."
"Bingo. AARP’s bottom line is suffering due to their association with Obama and Obamacare. AND THEY AIN’T SEEN NOTHING’ YET. How did they not see this coming? F’ing idiots"

I called AARP numerous times after they supported ObamaCare and gave them a piece of my mind while canceling my membership. I guess it took a while to process my cancellation. But they kept sending me renewal notices and credit card offers. I used the postage paid return envelopes to mail back all kinds of interesting things. I wonder how many other people did the same thing. Now I no longer receive AARP mail.

“I do wish AARP would send me another membership solicitation so I could again have the enjoyment of stuffing their crap into their Postage Paid Business Reply Envelope, spending their money to send it back to them.”

I do that too! And I write on the paperwork that I will never join until/unless they quit being a partisan org.

Too bad those envelopes are so small, a lot of household trash could be send to them.

"AARP is a nonpartisan organization, and we do not endorse political candidates nor coordinate with any candidate or political party."

So is Media Matters, Move-On.org, msnbc, abcseebsnbcnytimeswashpohuffpo etc.

Sounds like they’re getting tired of AMAC stealing their members away.

I wish I was still getting their crappy mail. I loved stuffing interesting things in the prepaid mailers and sending it back.

Yeah, right. nonpartisan. you can go to their website and “find out who to vote for”. Naturally, the democrats have their pics on the site and they give all of the “correct” answers to the skewed questions.

Hopefully found how to get off their mailing list:
(found on various sites)

You can stop AARP junk mail through several convenient methods:

e-mail AARP: member@aarp.org; (subject line: “unsubscribe”)

call AARP at 1-888-OUR-AARP (1-888-687-2277);

write AARP at AARP Membership Center, 3200 E. Carson Street, Lakewood, CA 90712;

((Because of the nature of AARP mailings, it can take up to 14 weeks for AARP junk mail and that from associated companies to subside.

When contacting AARP to stop junk mail, be sure to specify that you do not want your name re-sold or provided to any of their affiliates or otherwise endorsed companies.))

Dear AARP,

Medicare Advantage, which is very popular with seniors, is getting whacked under Obamacare.

YOU OWN THIS!!!! You can’t distance yourself know!!!
