President Obama’s “Senior” Moment?

President Obama’s “Senior” Moment?


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.


UPDATE: Obama Claim of AARP Endorsement 'Inaccurate'

  1. Obama urged Americans to ignore those who try to "scare and mislead the American people"

    Whoa, I believe it is Barack who is misleading on this one.
