Man this guy has clearly gone around the bend. Now he thinks the corporate crony AARP is a "liberal" group? LOL. Is that why they endorsed Bush's $400 bil. giveaway to big pharma, against the wishes of their own members? My dad quit AARP in disgust after that one.

1. Well, once upon a time, it was.
It's just so darned hard keeping up with these things when you get old. You know how time passes faster as you get older. For him, fifteen years ago wasn't that long ago.

2. Oddly enough... I met Linkletter exactly 10 years ago at Union Station
in Los Angeles. I told him how much I had liked his show and he was cordial.

And I'm only 36, but that day seems like yesterday to me. 15 years goes by really fast even at my age...

3. ANY group that advocates for "voiceless" people is a liberal
group, according to the right.. They like the public downtrodden and unable to fight back..:(

Of course rich rightwingers have the money to pay people to advocate for them every time they "need" one...but that's OK.:(
