Liberals are anyone who disagrees wit' ya. The AARP was a fine
organization when it was helping to get the GOP prescription plan passed.
Now that the AARP does not support the proposed changes to Social
Security, they are left leaning, partial abortion supporting, socialistic,
Leeburals!

Simple, eh?

And fer Rabbi Phil:

Conservatives (actually neoconservatives) are at their funniest when they
are *in* power.

The AARP is a SELF ADMITED liberal organization.

Of which I am a member. A non supportive member at this point on the
subject they support. But I believe one needs to be INSIDE to affect any
sort of change.

Which is why I still maintain my ARRL membership.

Yeah, so I've heard Dan. But the point I am trying to get out is that it
was just fine for them to help with the Prescription plan, but once they
disagreed, the attack dogs came out. No loyalty, no sense of working
together because something is right. Just blind adherence to the party
line. And heaven help you if you disagree.

If the social sec issue is a good one, it should stand or fall on its
own merits, not whether or not our membership in the AARP is somehow a
litmus test that we support gay marriage!!

Yeah, I'm a member too. Mostly for the discounts ;^)
