President Obama’s “Senior” Moment?

Rachel Martin and Jake Tapper report:

President Obama today suggested that the health care reform legislation for which he’s pushing has been endorsed by the American Association of Retired Person.

“We have the AARP on board because they know this is a good deal for our seniors,” the president said.

At another point he said: “Well, first of all, another myth that we've been hearing about is this notion that somehow we're going to be cutting your Medicare benefits. We are not. AARP would not be endorsing a bill if it was undermining Medicare, okay?”

The problem?

The AARP hasn't endorsed any plan yet.

The country's largest advocacy group for Americans over 50 issued a statement after the event saying, "While the President was correct that AARP will not endorse a health care reform bill that would reduce Medicare benefits, indications that we have endorsed any of the major health care reform bills currently under consideration in Congress are inaccurate."

The AARP came out after he made his statement and said they haven't endorsed a plan yet, and you're calling Yoni the liar?

The AARP won't endorse a bill that cuts medicare benefits. the aarp supports that portion of the bill...so where's the lie? I guess you have to look real close to find it..:rolleyes

Supporting a portion of a bill <> supporting a bill.

Fuck man, use your brain for once.

Sounds like AARP is the one lying.

They do indeed back the president. They are probably lying to O'Reily etc to slow down the exodus of old people leaving the group.

The funny thing is that conservatives think they are riling up people with these batshit crazy accusations. Louder doesn't mean more. Most people with a brain (many independents) could give a rats ass about their accusations.

Who cares. The American Revolution was conducted by 1/3 of the population :lol
