Congressvarming Pete Olson Hates the AARP

September 01, 2013 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Tom DeLay used to be my congressman.  Now I have Pete Olson, Phil Gramm’s mini-me.   When Phil Gramm gets drunk, Pete Olson falls down.  Those two are tighter than skin on a sausage.

We used to say, “Well, it couldn’t be worse than Tom DeLay.”  We were wrong.

Pete has never had honest work.  He’s been on a government paycheck all his life.  He was in the Navy and then he went to work for Gramm and hung around congress and now he’s a congressidiot.  No, seriously,  he ain’t real bright.  He is however, hyperactive and talks so fast that you have to listen real quick or he’s always three sentences ahead of you.

True story – last week he called me and asked me to join in a telephone townhall he was having.  I said, Okay, I’ll try this stuff.   At first, I though he was drunk because he was slurring his words and gasping for breath.  I finally got the idea that he was just talking too fast for me to follow him.  My first hint was when my phone caught on fire.

His entire life he’s been on governmental socialize medicine.  You need to remember that because it becomes important later on.

Anyway, and there is a point to this that I’ll get to eventually, Pete put out some campaign literature blasting the AARP.  I need to be honest and tell you that I am a 10 year member of AARP and I have their supplemental insurance for my Medicare.  I have been very happy with them and I even enjoy the little magazine they send me.

Pete Olson is not so happy with AARP.  He put a picture on his literature of President Obama wearing an AARP button, which means that now the AARP has cooties.

Pete declares that the AARP “is nothing but a shill organization for the radical left.”  I did not know that.   And apparently neither did President Yvonne Louviere and Vice President Leon Anhaiser of the Sugar Land branch of AARP.  They wrote Pete a scathing letter that told him in no uncertain terms that they disagree with him.   Strongly disagree. They have done many service projects and add …

We sponsor local candidate forums each year and allow both Republican and Democrat candidates the opportunity to speak to our membership. We are an informed and politically diverse organization.

Now here’s where I tell you that I searched the voting records of Yvonne Louviere (85 years old) and Leon Anhaiser (75 years old) and they have both voted in the Republican primary every election since 1992, which is as far back as I checked.   That’s Republican enough in my book.  They asked Pete Olson for a retraction.

Instead, they got this:

Asked to clarify his position regarding AARP, Olson said, “While I am appreciative of the local support and volunteerism that the Sugar Land AARP chapter offers our community, it does not change the fact that at the national level the AARP is a whole-owned subsidiary of the Democrat party and complicit in the Obama Administration’s efforts to weaken our freedoms, vastly expand government control over our lives, and force a liberal-extremist world view on the people of Texas. If the local chapter feels they need to take issue with this, they should start by internally working to change the AARP back to a service organization instead of an arm of the Democrat party.”

Oh Sweet Lord of Delusion, he doubled down and called these old people in tennis shoes patsies of the “Democrat” party.

Well, if the AARP is what Democrats want, then maybe Yvonne and Leon might want to come on over.  Yvonne and Leon, we don’t think you’re anybody’s fool. Pete does.

Pete Olson is having a town hall at Clements High School in Sugar Land on Tuesday night at 6:30.  You have to submit your questions in writing.  The last Olson townhall we went to, a guy threatened to punch Bubba in the nose.  Bubba laughed at him.  The police had to escort him out while while Bubba continued to grin.

Bubba can’t wait to go again.

Be social and share!

    “whole-owned”? Is English not his first language? Or is he just poorly educated? Can we be sure he’s not one of those Arabs who learned Spanish and snuck in through Mexico, then forged a birth certificate? Can we?

  2. If this fool doesn’t know enough not to mess with you and/or Bubba, he doesn’t has the brains God gave a louse. Do report back on the town hall meeting, would you, Dear?

  3. I’ve seen a couple of studies of the psychological differences between Democrats and Republicans, and they all conclude that Dems are more open to new things (if you’re going to open a Peruvian or Ethiopian restaurant, head for a Dem neighborhood) and Republicans are more afraid. Why I don’t know, but this clown certainly fits in. They’re just not happy unless they’re yelling about a conspiracy to take over the world and take away our rights… and if there isn’t one, they’ll make one up. I don’t know if they believe this nonsense or just use it to steer their followers wherever they want them to go and get money out of them. Meanwhile they ignore the real problems, such as climate change, which does have all kinds of evidence to back it up.

    “I’m a Republican and reality is whatever I say it is. Don’t confuse the issue with facts.”

    Though I suspect the real problem here is the association of the AARP with Obama. I wish Obama would say something nice about the NRA– then they’d all rush to condemn the NRA.

  4. Huh. So the AARP is a bunch of Commie subversives. That would have come as a surprise to my late 93-year-old mother. She didn’t know she was a fellow traveler. She just thought she was getting good supplemental health insurance.

  5. Heck, I always thought they were a tool of the insurance companies, just to find out they were socialists all along!

  6. Hey, it’s another group to alienate – retired people. There is going to be a grand total of eleven people left in the Repug Party, by the time they are through.

    Except, except….how much do you want to bet there will be AARP members cheering him on – without even thinking?

  7. OH, what a hoot! This made my day! I just re-upped my membership in the AARP! Now Pete Olson tells me I am something special! I’m subversive! Oh, rapture! I’m 73 years old, boring as drying paint, and I’m subversive. Wow! I’ve finally made it!

  8. Marge Wood says:

    You think we oughta send you a crate of brownies to hand out at the event? I’m 73 too and getting more subversive with each year. We should have a celebration.

  9. Excellent report, JJ, especially the part about researching the voting records of the leaders of your local AARP branch. That’s what we used to call “investigative journalism”, which was actually done by *paid* reporters back in the days before they all got lazy and left it to bloggers who do it for the love of it, not for the money.

    Your talk about Olson’s town hall reminded me of this: There is a website that lists local events by elected officials around the country. It’s called Accountable Congress and it’s run by Americans United For Change. Here’s the link, so wherever you are, you can find local events that are being held by your congressional rep and go and talk to them in person: http://www.accountablecongress.com/

    Oh man, I wish I could go with you!!! Have fun! (I know you will).

  11. You do realize that today’s 65 yr old was only 20 or so in the Age of Aquarius? Yesterday, a hippie – today a subversive. The longest running rebel group ever.

  12. Well, the AARP is not perfect. They just beat Republicans.

    “The AARP stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the GOP on the Medicare Part D benefit. They blessed the legislation creating Medicare D, which we recognize is nothing but a corrupt giveaway to the pharmaceutical industry.”

  13. That supplemental health insurance that AARP endorses (for a handsome fee, no doubt, because that’s free enterprise that Republicans always yammer about) is United Healthcare, whose parent is United HealthGroup (NYSE: UHG), which reported 2012 revenues of $111 billion and net earnings of $5.5 billion. It is the largest PRIVATE health insurance carrier in the country, serving more than 70 million people. This behemoth is scarcely a tool of “the radical left”!

    Peter Olson? Peter Putz is mor like it.

  14. Yes, the AARP is a whole-owned subsidiary of the Democrat party and complicit in the Obama Administration’s efforts to weaken our freedoms. So is Planned Parenthood. And all unions. And most students. Women, of course. Need we even mention minorities?

    In fact, 95% of all Americans are un-American according to Pete Olson.

    14
  15. Peter Putz… love it.

    15
  16. Marge Wood says:

    I think we should get T shirts made saying “95% of all Americans are un-American”. Dontcha think that would be fun?

  17. Ole Peter Putz should be mindful of pissing off the old folks because those folks can put his Rocky Mountain oysters in such a twist, he’ll be needing some of that supplemental insurance for sure!!

    I’ve been with AARP for 15 years now … love their little magazine and the discounts they offer when needed. I believe I joined just as I was turning 55 and I just turned 70 in August. However, my supplemental is with Humana … another biggie!!

    17
  18. Charles Phillips says:

    I’m with Marge…95% seems a little low, though. If standing up for basic human needs and basic human rights is “Un-American,” then 99% is more like it.

    And this dufe doesn’t look any brighter than your state senator, nor is he any better at interpersonal relations. At a guess, he’s either married to a fellow dimwit, or divorced from a smart woman.

  19. FTR, I once asked a friend and authority on Yiddish about the difference between a schmuck and a putz. He told me that a putz is a dumb schmuck. Peter Putz sounds very apt under the circumstances.

  20. If Pete Olsen were not so pathetic, he would be hysterical.

    I’ve been a member of AARP for hmmmmm years now. (Since I was eligible.. and today I celebrate a hmmmm birthday). Because I’m old, and not really automotive mechanically inclined, I recently joined their roadside assistance thing… My kids are wonderful about helping out on stuff like that, but my son travels, and I figured they would be a good backup plan.

    If people selling you products you can use is subversive….. C’mon man.

  21. “Pete has never had honest work. He’s been on a government paycheck all his life. He was in the Navy and then . . . ”

    Tell me again how being in the Navy doesn’t constitute honest work. I taught for 30 years in public schools, and drew a government paycheck, just like police, firemen, the military, and so on. I doubt than any of those I mentioned appreciate that characterization. That was a very GOP remark, ma’am.

    21
  22. Juanita Jean says:

    Gerg, you are right and I am wrong. The Navy is honest work. Being Phil Gramm’s flunky on government payroll is not.

    22
  23. @UmptyDump—Here’s another one: A schmuck is the guy who thoughtlessly drops a banana peel on the sidewalk. A schlemiel is the guy who slips on it, and a schlimazel is the guy he falls on.

  24. Lorraine in Spring says:

    Let’s just arm all members of the AARP & show up at his meeting wearing AARP & NRA buttons.

    Make his head explode.

    24
  25. 😀

  26. >>The Navy is honest work.

    In Pete’s case, maybe, maybe not. As hubby says, you don’t necessarily have to be too bright to be a Naval officer, although many are. When I see Pete, I am reminded of some jerks I have worked for.

  27. freeportguy says:

    Olson sounds like a guy desperate to make a splash to excite the conservative base…

  28. You have got to be kidding me.

    28
  29. Seriously, I wonder what the National AARP folks think about the Putz’s slander? They don’t stand down for anyone and certainly have the legal staff to back them up. I think we should stay tuned about this one. Thanks, JJ, for the good coverage.
