I think the Democrats and the senior lobby have discovered that trying to scare seniors into voting against Republicans no longer works, so AARP is trying to make the best deal it can.

Closest thing I've ever seen to a rational plan for dealing with (medical) drugs might be Ragnar Benson's ("Do-it Yourself Medicine", Paladin Press). Dreaming up new ways to throw ever increasing sums of money at our present medical and pharmaceutical systems is kind of like pouring gasoline on a fire to try to put it out...

I think Bush is accomplishing everything Hill and Bill couldn't get done on their watch.

We promised this so we could win Florida in the 2000 election.

We have to keep our promise before 2004, and preferably in 2003 before Chaffey and McCain switch.

It's a cost of war. Without this promise, we wouldn't be going to war with Iraq, or getting conservative judges, or building a missile defense system against North Korea, and would be in worse economic shape (no tax cut, corporate witch hunt scapegoating for the economy, Kyoto measures implemented, a second wave of terrorist attacks that hadn't been prevented by chowder headed liberals) and a demoralized military.

Thank you, dear Lord, for having mercy on us in 2000.

Where, exactly, in the Constittion does it give Congress the authority to undertake such a program?

I am twenty-seven years old. To fund this program, the government is going to have to steal more of MY money.

This is nothing more than a vote-buying scam. The AARP is the largest provider of prescription drugs in America. Once the government starts picking up the tab, the AARP can jack up the prices and make more money.

Right now, most GOP proposals provide $300 billion in benefits over 10 years.

Who is going to pay the $30 Billion per year to give prescription handouts to seniors? Oh yeah - I am. When is this socialist nonsense going to end?!

I think the AARP has finally discovered the side of the bread that is buttered...and it isn' the RAT Side!

This is another nail in the liberal coffin.
