The picture depicts that they are against the american troops, and for gays

This is the campaign against AARP because they are against the * social security plan

1. My thoughts

Sometimes you fight fire with fire (the the opponents same tactics), sometimes you fight fire with water (reason), sometimes you just let it burn (ignore). In this case I think a nice picture of Bush kissing Gannon would ne nice...

10. Note gif 3 (not out yet apparently)

Everytime these a-holes get on TV these outrageous ads must be shown and they must be shamed with them.

19. You don't mess with one of the largest voting blocks in the country.

Now I know this past sElection was rigged when they openly mess with seniors.

20. True, but do AARP'ers really vote as a block?

I would assume it's pretty mixed Dem/Repub.

9. AARP was used to sell Bush's bunko medicare scheme. Now they are

cast aside for daring to say that the Bush social security plan is a rip off.

13. A GAY in AARP??

Never heard of such a thing! No planned Gay vacations or special meetings of AARP Pride! I have never read one word in any AARP mags or news about the senior gay population!
AARP just didn't jump or squat for bush on SS because he has not just erred, but damned near destroyed, what all over fifty believe Democracy is/was! We do have the right to say, that for most of his kind, we have seen many self destruct over just the past century!

23. Hate to be a wet blanket

but the Swiftboaters are making it look like AARP is all Democrats They are attacking AARP not as a senior group, but a Democratic group. I'm so disgusted right now, thoroughly disgusted. The neocons are out to get everyone who disagrees!
