I went on to the AARP website to attempt to tell them that in light
of their most recent magazine cover (worshipping Condi Rice) http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=1989646&mesg_id=1989646
I would not be renewing my membership and stumbled across their message boards. There is a battle going on there between dems and repukes that looks pretty hot and heavy. "I'm a uniter, not a divider" my ass.

1. Do you have a link to the battle on AARP? I just went to
try and find it but don't know what category it would be under. Thanks!

2. This is a particularly nasty one, scroll down:
http://community.aarp.org/n/mb/message.asp?webtag=rp-legislative&msg=22552.967&ctx=1

Sample:

Obviously, no one you know supports the war...mostly people who do not hang out in mosques support the war.

3. Thanks, rzemanfl; lots of defensiveness going on over
there. After being here, I'm not crazy about that format either.

5. One post with 1,500+ responses can be a bit hard to read. I am
not likely to return, although I found it interesting that people were being accused of being terrorist inflitrators to their bulletin board.

4. Wait 'til the Q-tips get their draft notices
The AARP has been a disappointment recently. They seem to be drinking the kool-aid prepared by the republipukes. I quit them a few years ago, after their leaderships fell for the Bush scams.

Sad what they do to the older set.
