80. I expected it
Edited on Mon Nov-24-03 04:11 PM by Marianne
and so have been preparing myself and not getting my hopes up anymore. Betrayed? What else is new. Senior citizens, especially the poorest and the sickest, are easy targets--they have little resources to fight back. Picking on women, and picking on gays and all the people who are the weakest--they are out to git em--as Ted Kennedy, who BTW, fought the hardest I have ever seen him fight, said--the next will be Social SEcurity and after that, I think, it will the public school system--Republicans have ALWAYS hated the idea that they are giving their money to the poorer, or the weaker--damm it --it is THEIR money and it should be given back to them. Yet, it will be the poorer and the weaker whose money will go, when it , along with SS and education, goes to faith based charities--because NO ONE will oppose him on that either--even though they are not of the religion they are supporting. It is ironic that AARP is using the money of the seniors to make this move against them.
