AARP Official Defending ObamaCare Endorsement Was Senior Dem Official
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Who is Nancy LeaMond? That's what I wanted to know after watching AARP's Exec. VP defending her organization's endorsement of ObamaCare to Joe Scarborough on Morning Joe today.

Click, Wikipedia, click: whaddayaknow? Turns out that before coming to AARP, LeaMond was a senior Clinton administration appointee and a top Dem congressional staffer. Surprise, surprise!

I hope 100,000 people cancel their AARP membership today. This is not in the best interest of the elderly.

I thought this administration wasn’t going to have any lobbyists?

AARP is one of the largest Democrat lobbying groups in the country!

Any Freeper who remains a member of AARP after yesterday should have their posting privileges revoked.

AARP was founded by left wing school administrators. I did my homework. Never joined.

Why am I not surprised? The stink of corruption permeates Washington.

Less medicare coverage means more insurance purchased from AARP to make up for the gap.

You are right about the NEA /AARP connection. The National Education Assn has a link to Saul Alinskys “Rules” on its web site. I saw it last week and hope it hasn't been scrubbed by now.
