AARP Loses 60,000 Members Over Obamacare

That's gotta hurt.

As many as 60,000 seniors have cancelled their AARP memberships since July 1, news outlets have reported.

The reason is because they are angry about AARP's position on healthcare reform. While it has publicly stated it has not endorsed any legislative proposals, it has leaned in favor of the bills that are being debated. Many seniors are switching to the American Seniors Association, a conservative alternative to AARP, CBS News reported.

I guess they didn't get President Obama's "joke" about the silly old lady who liked her Medicare any more than I did.
