So convenient!

Wasn't it nice of the AARP to provide a postage paid envelope for me to return my membership card in? Just so helpful, those people!

Joe said...: I have been a member of AARP for some time, taking advantage of a few of their "benefits."

However, I am now deciding whether to continue my membership.

As a member, I have access to the top eschelon of the organization and have used the access to voice my objection to their many political stands with which I disagree.

Now, however, it seems that a deaf ear has been turned to those who don't get in lock-step with their agenda.

They have been losing members in droves, and have decided not to care.

Methinks me association with them is short lived.

I will make my card look like yours.; November 6, 2009 at 9:55 AM
Janie Lynn said...: It's an easy choice for me, Joe, I have only been a member since May and have not used my membership for anything yet. All I'm losing is my membership fee.

I can see how the same choice would be tough for you. I have a feeling if I were in your place I would be researching my other options first to see if I actually could take a stand against them.

I have to question myself - if I was retired and using my membership actively - would I be able to make that choice? I hope so, but I honestly don't know.; November 6, 2009 at 12:24 PM

Words to remember

Don't interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained, for it is the only safeguard of our liberties.
~Abraham Lincoln~

It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world.
~Thomas Jefferson~

I know it's going to be the private sector that leads this country out of the current economic times we're in. You can spend your money better than the government can spend your money.
~George W. Bush~

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.
~Ronald Reagan~

I do not like broccoli. And I haven't liked it since I was a little kid and my mother made me eat it. And I'm President of the United States and I'm not going to eat any more broccoli.
~George H. W. Bush~

America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.
~Abraham Lincoln~

We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.
~Ronald Reagan~

To those of you who received honours, awards and distinctions, I say well done. And to the C students, I say you, too, can be president of the United States.
~George W. Bush~

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.
~Thomas Jefferson~

Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.
~Ronald Reagan~
