AARP sells out seniors for 'Obamacare'
Posted: Tue Nov 13, 2012 5:34 pm
As much as Obama claims to eschew Chicago-style politics, this administration’s crony relationship with AARP gives every appearance of being an old-fashioned protection racket. The administration lets AARP make billions of dollars in profits off seniors, as long as they continue to support “the cause”? and funnel those profits toward supporting Obama’s liberal agenda.
That’s why the administration won’t speak out against AARP’s abuses; why Democrats who said they ended “the worst insurance industry abuses”? in “Obamacare”? exempted Medigap insurance from virtually the entire law, and why the Obama campaign is so willing to use AARP as a political shield in running negative attack ads against his opponent.
The president recently said, “no American should have to spend their golden years at the mercy of insurance companies.”? What he won’t tell seniors today is that, thanks to his administration’s protection racket, that isn’t true.
Millions of seniors have been — and will continue to be — taken advantage of, because this administration’s protection racket turns a blind eye toward the insurance industry abuses of the AARP.
