Focus on the Family shines light on AARP agenda
September 14, 2005
I remember when AARP publications would come in my mom's mailbox back in Bay City, MI. At the time, they looked casually interesting for the needs of that age group. But, I wasn't in that age group. Now I am.
I belonged to AARP for a few years, but I didn't renew this year. I saw the magazine becoming more and more a vehicle for a worldview that I didn't subscribe to. And, then in the monthly bulletin from the organization, I saw such one-sided reporting about President Bush and his proposals for Social Security reform. They treated anybody over-50 like brainless lapdogs. And, that just didn't appeal to me.
Now, Focus on the Family has done some in-depth research about AARP and its CEO and I'm convinced I made the right decision in not renewing. The national organization seems to have a clear agenda that is anti-life and very leftist is both politics and social reforms. Check it out in this research report. Any comments?
