Obama speaking now. Congress members who oppose will really look out of touch.

1. Anyone who opposes now looks really out of the mainstream--
that's some powerful support.

3. I thought AARP was now controlled by Bushies?
If so, their endorsement doesn't mean that much.

4. So, you thought wrong.
Maybe you should get yourself enlightened.

7. Well, thank you for taking yourself out of the debate
In the meantime, I've been reminded that AARP has gotten in bed with UnitedHealthcare and Aetna over branded insurance, and those insurance companies are run by Bushies, so it looks like AARP's endorsement has been compromised.

17. Go learn something about who is in charge of AARP NOW, then open your mouth.
Because right at this second, your uninformed ass ain't lookin' too hot.
