November 6, 2009:
In a surprise visit to the Press Secretary's daily briefing with the press,
President Obama fired back at conservatives gathering on the other side of
Washington D.C. yesterday. He broke in to share with reporters the information
that the AARP (American Associate of Retired Persons) and the AMA (American
Medical Association) had endorsed the healthcare legislation that will be voted
on in the next few days. He called these major endorsements and told Americans
that they could stop listening to fear mongers and storytellers now that these
organizations were on board.
So, riddle me this Batman. If Obamacare is indeed so fucking wonderful, why did the AARP ask for, and just receive, a waiver from it?
The Daily Caller has learned that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) rate review rules, which it finalized on Thursday, exempt "Medigap" policy providers, like the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), from oversight when such providers increase payment rates for their supplemental insurance plans.
Come to think of it, being exempted from Obamacare would be pretty wonderful, wouldn't it? Maybe that's what they meant!
Rumors that AARP would be moving their national headquarters to
Nancy Pelosi's Congressional District could not be confirmed at this time.
