Republican Party loved AARP until the healthcare crisis and then accused them of profiting off of health care when it was convenient to diss Obama and AARP as brethren. Not sure what the current party position is since nobody is doing anything about healthcare anymore. My most conservative friend thinks AARP is a socialist group while he sits and collects his S.S. and gets his healthcare via medicare. I just consider them conservative because they are old fats and most of the old farts I know are crusty old conservatives. Crusty old conservatives think EVERYONE else is too liberal even groups that support programs they are benefiting from.


I know a whole lot of people over the age of 60 who are NOT conservatives....That's just a convenient talking point for the uninformed.....

Dude, I'm 68 and a radical revolutionary so of course I know other seniors who are not conservatives and there could be more than the two or three I know. ;)

More info please?

My wife would shop our auto insurance every 2 years. Using West Bend thru AARP saved us almost $200 about 4 years ago. Review it again a year ago or so and was still the best deal.
Refuse to use Progressive, got rear ended and they never pursued the girl that hit me and my our fo pocket wiped out the fake savings they touted. Terrible service too.

I have a pretty common name. I've been getting their constant spam since I was somewhere in my early thirties. I'm guessing because they confuse me with an older version of myself. I can't believe anyone would call them a conservative organization. Bernie might because they are just right of him. And definitely a lobby organization that uses discounts as a hook.

I started getting calls for some Todd dude about 3 months ago. (Has this cell number since 95/96). Worst is, about a week ago I started getting texts for Todd asking if he wanted increase his penis size 2-4 inches.

Asking for a friend... Is the 4" legit?
