2. Losing it? The dude can't even speak.
He's such a maverick defender of the status quo I think I'm going to puke.

4. Actually, AARP has become a shill for the insurance industry.
And we tore up our cards some years ago.
There was a good thread on this a few weeks back.
A shame, really, at one time AARP did appear to honestly represent its members.

6. the height of hypocrisy
is that he calls himself a maverick but he's clearly not in favor of even having a debate over healthcare. What maverick would avoid debate on a hot topic?

7. He understands how forceful AARP is, he's senator (at present) of a state full of snow birds...
And they have in large part already paid their dues - unlike having every door you've ever passed through opened before you via senatorial endorsement - stop your persistant efforts to unravel the fabric of America, John

8. What difference does it make. AARP cards are essentially worthless.
If he asks you to tear up your Social Security and Medicare cards, then that is serious, but then he'd have to tear up his as well.
