1. I quit AARP

Back when they gave in to Bushco for the prescription plan. Have they seen the light?

I do have reservations.

2. I will rejoin, if they fight for us this time

And not take another DRUG plan like we have now. (The one with the DONUT HOLE)

3. I've never joined BUT I will if they stop Bush from expanding the war!

4. I find AARP disgusting in many ways...

Its a private autocratic organization that is not responsible to the members. Check out how they run it and elect officers. I can not support some of their positions on some issues.

[Cleita]

5. Don't expect anything meaningful. They have been coopted

by the dark side and only do the minimum for their members that they have to to keep the membership up. I only belong because their medi-gap insurance is better for me.

6. AARP's new commercial fucking creeps me out!

What the fuck is a RETIRED persons organization doing using a Buzzcocks song in their ads??? :scared:
