Obama LIES About Obamacare Endorsement By AARP?
A gaffe, a mistake or blatant misrepresentation?
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?â€
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.”
Come on, Mr. President – at least get your facts straight.
How can any American believe Obama on health care when he begins spewing the rhetoric without regards to reality.
Obamacare is sinking by the minute.

Are you sure?
I find it difficult to believe Messiah is capable of fibbing or making a mistake. That said, it sounds like a conspiracy by AARP to smear the reputation our Saviour in the White House. There must be a misunderstanding here; I’m sure we’ll all hear by tomorrow how mistaken the AARP was and that everything ‘O Godlike does and says is, well, Godlike!
Yes we can!
