My father goes to a senior center in Phoenix. Kind of far from where we live but he started going there when he lived with his girlfriend. (or ladyfriend as he said)

Anyways.

Bush visited another senior center...my dad said it was the Olivos senior center around indian school road. My dad talked to some people who go there.

Bush came in and nationally it was reported like he was being around seniors talking about their concerns and the prescription drug plan.

Wrong.

They kicked all the old people out (please don't say national security in an senior center...That's like saying drug haven and preschool in the same sentence).

Bush didn't speak to seniors, he spoke to those he speaks to in washington or what not, all the politicians and staff and such. There was someone there signaling when to applaud. How stupid.

I asked my dad if no one was there, how did they know the signaling when to applaud was done?

He said thats a good point, but others had said they were kicked out. (some seniors frequent multiple senior centers) So the kicked out part is corroborated.

I'm not labeling party lines as any reason, but Bush allowing things like this fraud of a speech to take place and be nationally aired (this was the last time he was here, not yesterday)...really shows how much he cares.

I want to speak about seniors...I got an idea, lets go to some senior center, in a state with a high senior population, say flordia, no...Arizona....kick 'em out...talk to 30-50 year olds being paid by me, fake the applause...and cover it up, and spin it on national media about my bunk plan that will cost seniors more.

Do I need to say anymore? Maybe its naive for me to think these things don't occur, but man using the senior vote sympathy card in a fraudulent manner sure makes him low in my book!

It took this to make you think that??? All it took for me was months of lies about Iraq's WMDs, and the subsequent sending of hundreds of thousands of our service men and women to fight a war based on these lies...over 500 of whom have now come home in a box!

Oh no, I didn't want him as president, he was already low in my book, but now he's like getting to the last page low.

Let me get this straight, You are saying that your dad told you that someone told him that this happened?

Sorry if I don't get to worked up over hearsay.

True its hearsay

But it was multiple people on different days who told him this. He just told me right before I wrote this first post.

I was just passing on some info.

I'll ask my dad to ask other people who frequent the other senior center.

Take it for what its worth...I'm not saying this was on MSNBC or something. I tried to poke holes with it as I wrote in the post.

But if true...it's an interesting scoop.
