I am so damn mad I can't even think straight.. I heard yesterday on the news where the AARP was putting all their support into Obamas HealthPlan; Lock, Stock and Barrel.. Today my AARP NewsLetter arrived and confirmed what I had heard.
I am going to Copy & Paste my letter to them and their reply to me here in my blog for anyone to read.
After reading their reply, what I got out of it is they are going to do whatever they want, if I don't like it I can cancel my subscription so I don't have to read about it. Another example of organizations that started out with good intentions but have gotten to big and corrupt within themselves.
MY LETTER TO AARP: 7/30/09
I myself being a Senior Citizen find that I am totally fed up with AARP and their personal views on politics and then using that idea as if it comes from the membership.
I cancelled my membership a few years ago for that exact reason, then it was about Gun Control... Recently I was starting to get weak in the head and thinking about joining again but Thank God you pulled this latest shenanigan and I won't have to go thru it again.
When I heard yesterday that the AARP had put their weight into Obamas healthplan I kind of thought I heard it wrong but thanks for setting it straight. I am from a rural town in MT. and have talked with a lot of people, Seniors and the younger crowd and I fail to find ONE person in support of this healthplan...
You people are all on the verge of throwing this Great Country into medieval times once again. I just want you to know that I will be active in getting as many Seniors to turn against you as I can.Your personal politics & gains have no business in a organization supposedly setup for improving our life style.

WHAT R WE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT??
Our Country was founded around God & the teachings of Jesus, We have always been taught that a marriage took place between 1 man & 1 woman.. Not 2 women, 2 men or 1 human & 1 animal, We give life not take it, the only exceptions would be in a time of war or the death penalty for major heinous crimes against humanity.
Our Country has a Constitution and The Declaration of Independence, it is cast in stone. None of it is to be altered whenever a new President chooses or some wacked out Special Interest groups want to...
Why the Hell are we voting for and getting these far left radicals appointed to important or high security positions??
People, Wake Up!!
Radical special interest groups, Political Correctness, Open Borders, Multiple Language, Giving God the Heave Ho, Government take-overs, Debt that can never be paid, all of this just for starters!
PEOPLE, WAKE UP!!!!! WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT??? 2010, 2012 JUST MIGHT BE TO LATE

Mad!.......Mad!..............Mad as Hell!!!!
What gives? What does the Majority want for our Country? What Direction do You want to see us go?
Does the Majority want to live in a Socialistic Governed Country? God I don't, I don't want my kids, their kids and all future generations have to live with the mess we are making out of Democracy.
I keep hearing that the Conservatives outnumber the Liberals. What Gives? How come they get their way and we get the shaft???
If we don't do something and pretty damn quick, we will have fallen into what Obama, Pelosi, Kennedy and other radical liberals have planned for us. This didn't all come about overnite but in recent months things are moving so fast that soon we will be past any chance to save our way of life.
Be On Notice! Federal Bail Outs, Government Control over Corporations, Printing Mass amounts of currency with no collateral, Forever borrowing from China, leaning away & being rude to our allies, kissing up to rogue terrorist states, Pushing for a Federal Health Plan that will destroy our Economy forever, Failure to Secure our Borders against Aliens that would hurt us, A Plan to give Social Security monies & Free Health Care to Illegal Aliens, Cutting the Defense Budget, Cutting back on our Weapons that protect our Country, Demoralizing our Military ..... DON'T YOU SEE WHERE WE ARE GOING????????
What the Hell are we going to do about it???
While these plans are all being implemented our personal taxs will increase, at a minimum $3000 a year! That is probably way under estimated, it could go to $5000, $7000 more than we are being taxed now. Okay if you are one that lives on $11,000 to $20,000 a year, just subtract this new tax amount out of your income... Think you will live on that? NOT HARDLY!
So!! What the Hell are we going to do about it?? We better be coming up with some answers quick because I am not sure we can wait until 2010, 2012 elections...
You better believe, This is a Crisis!! and The Radical Lefty Liberal is the Problem.
ObamaHealthCare,,, Sure sounds sweet if you don't already have Health Insurance, I know some people and you do to, that have never had Health Insurance of their own, They have always relied on Public Assistance and if it was neccessary that is okay.. But you get the majority on such health plans and you will have grave consequences:

Following Information taken from HumanEvents.com
Obama describes his health care scheme with the usual pie-in-the-sky rhetoric, claiming - with fingers crossed behind his back - that his approach will heal the sick, miraculously reduce costs, and resurrect a moribund health system.
Obama has already told you that if you want to keep your doctor, you'll be able to keep your doctor and if you want to keep your present health plan, you'll be able to keep your present health plan. Specifically,
Obama said: "If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor. Period. If you like your health care plan, you will be able to keep your health care plan. Period. No one will take it away."
But Obama can't keep that promise and he knows it.
Jim Lindgren writing for the Internet blog the Volokh Conspiracy: "But if the Obama plan is enacted, a substantial portion of employers will cut their health subsidies - raising their employees' share of contributions to the company plan - in order to drive some of the employees into the government exchange and the public option.
Other employers may drop their plans altogether - after all, workers could buy their own coverage in the government exchange - or simply fund part of their workers' participation in the exchange. These changes, which would be the direct results of the implementation of the Obama plan, would make it virtually impossible for Obama to keep these promises...."
But will keeping your doctor or your health care provider really matter when government bureaucrats start calling the shots and telling your doctor and provider exactly what they can and cannot do... what they are allowed to treat... what they're allowed to pay.
Make no mistake, Obama's takeover of health care will be nothing more than a raw power grab, more cutting than his takeover of the banks and the automobile industry. Its goal will not be to improve health care but, to reward political allies - and punish people like you.
You can stop him by letting the Congressional leadership know - right now... today - that there will be a political price to pay if they allow the world's best health care system turn into a medical wasteland.
Use the hyperlink below to send your urgent Blast Fax messages to Barack Obama and each and every Member of the Republican and Democrat leadership of the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives.
Tell them to reject any temptation to compromise or fix the Obama-Care proposals that will be thrust upon them.
Tell them that the only option is to reject the Obama plan outright. No compromises... no fixes... tell our elected leaders to just say no and when it comes to health care, to go back to the drawing board.

Let's examine the real repercussions of health care rationing?
Think of it this way, to Obama (and other Statists), people represent health costs. The fewer people, the lower the costs.
Are we saying that Obama will target the elderly, the handicapped and the unborn to reduce costs?
Consider Obama's own words remarks as reprinted in the Washington Times and make that call yourself. "Part of what I think government can do effectively is to be an honest broker in assessing and evaluating treatment options."
Obama also said: "The chronically ill and those toward the end of their lives are accounting for potentially 80 percent of the total health care bill...." Regarding those in the last phases of life, Obama specifically says: "There is going to have to be a conversation that is guided by doctors, scientists, ethicists.
And then there is going to have to be a very difficult democratic conversation that takes place. It is very difficult to imagine the country making those decisions just through the normal political channels."
Obama's top health advisers have emphasized that America should value the lives of young, healthy people more than those of old, sick individuals.
One such adviser is Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, brother of Obama's chief-of-staff Rahm Emanuel. Kevin Williamson of National Review Online describes Dr. Emanuel's views: "He wrote in The Lancet in 2008: 'Unlike allocation by sex or race, allocation by age is not invidious discrimination.' We all were young once, the argument goes, and so denying the elderly and weak in order to care for the young and fit is just."
Just what do you think Obama's talking about here?
Trust me, these are scary times and if you're over the age of 55, be very scared.
If you're chronically ill with diabetes or high blood pressure or multiple sclerosis - or dying with heart disease or cancer - your future doesn't look very bright.
Would Obama empower the federal government and bureaucratic pencil-pushers to decide exactly when your presence on earth is no longer feasible, viable or sustainable?
Do we really want to find out the answer the hard way?
And if you're really sick, what are the chances that you might die in line, waiting for treatment that simply does not come in time?
Dr. Gratzer tells us what's going on in Canada: "I trained in emergency rooms that were chronically, chaotically, dangerously overcrowded... all across Canada.
I met a middle-aged man with sleep problems who was booked for an appointment with a specialist three years later; a man with pain... who was referred to a pain clinic with a two-year wait list; a woman with breast cancer who was asked to wait for four months before starting the life-saving radiation therapy." When you consider the evils of health care rationing, consider the following.
Addressing the AMA, Obama implied that costs were rising because patients were getting unneeded care. In fact, the opposite is true.
A 2003 survey by the Rand Corporation found that only 11% of patients got treatments they didn't need - while a whopping 46% failed to receive needed care. And strangely, there's tremendous irony in Obama's mindless drive toward a government-run system.
In Great Britain, France, Germany - and even Canada - there's a growing push to get people back into private insurance systems, taking the pressure off public facilities and doctors.
It's a move toward - you guessed it - government cost savings.
It's time to tell Congress - loudly and clearly - that falling off a cliff is hazardous to our health, as individuals and as a nation.
Obama claims that his health plan won't involve rationing or reduced care.
But that's ridiculous, because all government-run health systems suffer from those drawbacks.
For a real-world, practical example, we only need look at the Canadian system.
Dr. David Gratzer, a Canadian-trained physician who practices in the United States, describes his own revelation about Canada's medical horror show:
"On [my way to medical school class]... I cut through a hospital emergency room and came upon dozens of people on stretchers - waiting, moaning, begging for treatment. Some elderly patients had waited up to five days in corridors before being admitted to beds. They smelled of urine and sweat. As I navigated past the bodies, I began to question everything I thought I knew about health care - not only in Canada, but also in the United States. ...
I had begun a journey into the heart of one of the great policy disasters of modern times." Is the situation really any better in Europe - should we, for instance, emulate the French?
Consider a French journalist's words at the Heritage Foundation: "The majority of France's state-owned hospitals are managed in a way that is reminiscent of the old U.S.S.R. ... In the average French public hospital, it is not uncommon for every window to be open, even in winter, because the heating system in the building cannot be regulated. With the only options being no heat or unbearably high heat, everyone opts for the latter. Predictably, this is not very cheap."
What about Germany? The British medical journal Lancet states: "The German health care system is facing bankruptcy on an unprecedented scale."
In Great Britain, one current cost-saving measure is the denial of essential medications to women in advanced stages of certain cancers.
And yet, on June 15, Barack Obama told the American Medical Association (AMA) that other developed countries - he meant nations like Canada, Germany, France, and Britain - pay much less per capita for health care than Americans.
Tell us something we don't know... you also get exactly what you pay for.
So why does Obama want to bring millions of people into the system literally overnight?
What happens when there are suddenly many more patients than there are practitioners to care for them?
Will the health care system start to follow the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) model... where you take-a-number.... and wait... and then wait some more?
What gives? What does the Majority want for our Country? What Direction do You want to see us go?
Does the Majority want to live in a Socialistic Governed Country? God I don't, I don't want my kids, their kids and all future generations have to live with the mess we are making out of Democracy.
I keep hearing that the Conservatives outnumber the Liberals. What Gives? How come they get their way and we get the shaft???

Keeping up with the Pace
Geezo, I turned the TV on the news this morning and 45 minutes went by before I had to hear all about Jacko again. Cripes, it's totally maddening the way our media has gone..
This Independence Day weekend in this small Montana Community has been just fantastic. We were lucky enough to have the 204th Army Band here. They are the greatest. God Bless everyone in our Armed Forces and their families.
Sarah Palin, ????? I am at a loss for words, I really hope and pray all is for the betterment of your family. I have and will continue to support you.
Steve McNair, ????? Strange & Saddening News, All thoughts of Comfort go to his family and friends.
BHO, NoBama, The Media's "Love Child" or some Damn thing. Myself, I think you are probably the biggest Traitor this Country has ever had. I have NO forgiveness for Traitors. How blinded was this Country last year, How could it be possible for someone that hates the USA as bad as Obama, his wife and the goones he hangs with does and still get elected President to the most Powerfull Country in the World?
IMPEACH! Hell!, He should be Imprisoned also..... He is against our God, He is against our Constitution, He is against The Declaration of Independence, He is against our Way of Life, He is against our Friends but he is leaning toward our enemies.
Could he have been Elected without the use of his own Acorn group? I THINK NOT!! We the People have to start making the necessary Corrections in 2010 & 2012... I pray it won't be to late..
