The American Seniors Association is flat-out against President Obama's plan, which calls for $313 billion dollars in Medicare cuts over ten years. The AARP is widely viewed as supporting the President.
Last week, Obama told a town meeting in Portsmouth, NH, "We have the AARP on board because they know this is a good deal for our seniors."
AARP also split its purpose back in April when it decided to become an HMO. Perhaps Seniors are wondering just how an HMO can also lobby for Senior Care in the current environment... just whose side is AARP taking behind closed doors during this health care debate, is AARP in bed with those who want to cut health care costs out of Medicare, or those who want to increased and better care for Seniors?
