America's Christian Alternative to AARP
2014 National Opinion Research
Survey of Christian Seniors
On the Role of Religion
in American
Public Life
Dear Christian Senior Friend,
It's
because you are a member in good standing of the Christian Seniors Association
(CSA) that I've sent you this important and urgent letter. I've done so for
three reasons...
1. So you can
be included in our new 2014 NATIONAL
OPINION RESEARCH SURVEY on the Role of Religion in American Public Life . .
.
. . . Please take a few moments IIQW to complete the
enclosed Survey and return it to me here at Christian Seniors Association right
away. It's critically important that every Member of Congress hears your
voice and knows how concerned you are about the escalating "War on
Christians" that our government is waging against you, me and other fellow
Christians.
2. To encourage
you to help CHRISTIAN SENIORS
ASSOCIATION (CSA) reach our goal of 2.4
MILLION members by the end of the year. It's in your own interest that you
do so... I'll explain why in a moment.
3. To tell you
about the great benefits package we've
put together for you as a member of the Christian Seniors Association.
We're constantly looking for ways to make membership in CSA more inviting and
more attractive and I think you'll like what we've done for you.
But
before I tell you about those new benefits, . . .
. . . you need to complete and return your enclosed
2013 NATIONAL OPINION RESEARCH SURVEY on the Role of Religion in American
Public life.
You
don' t need me to tell you our government' s attacks on our religious beliefs,
Constitutional rights, and the values you hold dear have increased dramatically
since Barack Obama's re-election. Just recently:
→ The Washington
Post reported that the Pentagon is caving in to pressure from extremist
left-wing groups like the notorious Southern Poverty Law Center and is about to
punish Christians in the military
who speak about their faith. They'll be court martialed
as enemies of the state.
→ The infamous HHS mandate – which is part of ObamaCare – punishes Christian organizations and
business owners who want to follow their consciences and live according to
their religious beliefs. This is an
all-out attack on your First Amendment right to freedom of religion.
→ Beginning in 2010, the IRS
targeted "Tea Party" and "Patriot" organizations for
special illegal scrutiny! Revelations continue to come forth as this scandal
spreads deeper and deeper.
→ Sarah Hall Ingram, the woman who served as commissioner of
the IRS office responsible for overseeing tax-exempt organizations while all
this illegal activity was going on, is now the director of the IRS unit that
will enforce significant parts of
ObamaCares!
→ And it is this same IRS that is now in the process of hiring 16,000 brand new agents to enforce
ObamaCares.
→ The Department
of Justice conducted illegal
investigations of news reporters; going so far as to call one reporter a
"co-conspirator" against the government for the "crime" of
simply doing his job and covering what's going on in Washington.
And that' s only a partial list of how your own government has
launched an attack against you and patriotic Christian seniors like you.
As much as it pains me to say this . . .
. . . you need to protect yourself from our own U.S. government!
Fortunately,
you have already taken steps to do just that. You did so when you decided to
join millions of your fellow believers and patriotic Americans and become a
member of the Christian Seniors Association.
Unfortunately,
the times we live in demand you take an active role in all that we' re doing here at CSA to watch out for you and protect
your Constitutional rights as an American. And that brings me back to:
1. Your
enclosed 2014 NATIONAL OPINION RESEARCH SURVEY on the Role of Religion in
American Public Life. And
2. Your
need to do all you can to help your Christian Seniors Association reach its
goal of 2.4 MILLION members by the end of the year by joining CSA . . . we're
over half way there!
As
for your Survey, it's critically important you complete and return your Survey
today. Given all that's happened since the re-election of Barack Obama – I have
critical new questions for you to answer.
By
answering this survey, you'll be doing something extremely important.
You'll be
making sure Congress knows that AARP does NOT sneak for you when it comes to
the critical issues facing our nation and America's seniors!
As
you know, CSA is the Christian Alternative to AARP. AARP has a lengthy track
record of supporting far-left causes that are destroying our nation's moral
foundations. For example, AARP is a proud sponsor of so-called "same sex
marriage."
AARP supported
ObamaCares in spite of the fact it will deprive you and all U.S. seniors of critical health care. Why? Because AARP is
set to get a windfall profit of over 1 billion dollars from
ObamaCares! That' s according
to "Behind the Veil", an investigative report conducted by the House
of Representatives' Ways and Means Committee.
And
I could give you more indictments against AARP. In fact, former U.S. Senator Jim DeMint put together a
scathing indictment of AARP entitled: "AARP Sells Out Seniors."
But that' s something you already knew and why you decided to
join Christian Seniors Association in the first place. Still, with its vast
membership, AARP has the ear of Congress. And this in spite
of the fact that American seniors are ripping up their AARP membership cards
and joining organizations like the Christian Seniors Association.
They're doing so because they know that Christian Seniors Association is looking
out for them! As a result, our membership is growing and our influence with
Congress is getting stronger and stronger.
But
it's not yet strong enough. Which is why . . .
. . . the enclosed 2013 NATIONAL OPINION RESEARCH
SURVEY on the Role of Religion in American Public Life is so critical.
Just
as important is the contribution I'm counting on you to include, of at least
$30 along with your Survey answers. Your dollars are urgently needed so that
Christian Seniors Association can:
1) Double
our membership to 2,400,000 members
by the end of the year so that we can show
our lawmakers that AARP does not speak for America's seniors! There is strength in numbers. It's critically
important for YOU that your Christian Seniors Association reaches that 2,000,000
member threshold so that we can have a real impact with Congress as we fight
for you and the values you hold dear.
2) Mobilize
millions of Christian seniors to tell Congress to . . .
O Repeal
ObamaCares – including its mandate that you pay for abortion-inducing drugs,
sterilizations, and vasectomies as part of your health coverage;
o End our government's 60-year war on Christianity, the
family, and morality in America; and
0 Restore Constitutional government in America.
So...
please use the enclosed reply envelope to send the best gift you can. And thank
you for doing everything in your power to rescue faith and freedom in America.
Sincerely,
James
Lafferty
Executive
Director
CHRISTIAN
SENIORS ASSOCIATION
P.S. In my haste
to alert you to the government's "War
on Christians" I almost forgot to tell you about the new benefits we have for you as a
member of the Christian Seniors Association. There isn't enough room to do SO
here so I enclosed a small sheet of paper which tells you about them. This is
one more way your Christian Seniors Association is working for you!

In
the CSA 2014 National Research Survey in Part A: Government-sponsored Persecution of Christians, Issue Summary: From
all that's happening in our country today – from Barack Obama's declaration
that America is no longer a Christian nation; to
ObamaCares and its attack on
religious freedom; to Congress and its so-called "Hate Crimes"
legislation; to the courts and their rulings against prayer in school, Ten
Commandments displays and all things Christian; to the IRS and its illegal
targeting of Christian organizations for special scrutiny; to the Pentagon and
its pending directive that anyone in the military who promotes his Christian
beliefs will be court martialed – it appears our
federal government is engaged in an all-out WAR ON CHRISTIANITY. We should not let Barack Hussein
Obama "declaration that America is no longer a Christian nation" come to pass.
In Part B:
ObamaCares, Issue Summary: According to most analysts:
ObamaCares establishes
"death panels" that will deny seniors of critically needed health care, creates 159 new
government agencies to oversee it, cuts more than $716 BILLION from Medicare, requires the IRS to
oversee enforcement (the agency is hiring 16,000 agents to do this and the
enforcement division will be run by the woman [Sarah Hall Ingram] who was in
charge of the IRS section that illegally scrutinized Christian and conservative
non-profits groups), and is driving up both insurance premiums and health care
costs.
In
Part D: Role of Religion in American Public Life Issue Summary: In 1962, the
U.S. Supreme Court outlawed prayer from public schools. Since that time, our
nation has witnessed a dramatic increase in violence, legalized
abortion-on-demand, the normalization of homosexual behavior, a nationwide
drive to re-define "marriage", skyrocketing divorce rates, a
never-ending rise in the number of children living in one-parent homes,
atheists constantly attacking the Pledge of Allegiance and our nation's "In
God We Trust" motto, and the ever-escalating "War on Christmas."

America's Christian Alternative to the Far-Left
AARP
2014 National Opinion Survey
of 10,000,000
Christian Senior Voters
AARP pushed for
ObamaCares and betrayed America's Seniors
Tell Congress that AARP does NOT speak for you .. and that you Vote!
Dear Christian Senior Friend,
During
the recent government shutdown and the debate over
ObamaCares, has anyone asked
for your opinion on these important issues? Probably not.
But
Congress needs to know what you think. NOW!!! This is especially important
because AARP has Congress convinced that it speaks for you and all of America's seniors. You've got to set the record straight.
And
that's why I made sure I included you in the CHRISTIAN SENIORS ASSOCIATION
(CSA) landmark national survey of 10,000,000 Christian senior voters.
Please take a few moments right now to
complete your Survey
and rush your
answers to our CSA headquarters.
As a
valued member of CHRISTIAN SENIORS ASSOCIATION, it's important you close ranks
with your fellow CSA members and show Congress and America's political leaders that AARP does not speak for you
and millions of other Christian seniors ... especially when it comes to
ObamaCares.
Because
of AARP's massive membership, most politicians assume AARP's political views –
including its over the top support for
ObamaCares – represents the views of the
majority of America's seniors. But you and I know that's simply not true.
And
with this survey, we aim to show elected officials in America and candidates who will be running for office in 2014
that AARP is out of step with the thinking of most American seniors and is
especially out of step with the overwhelming majority of America's Christian seniors.
You
can be sure America's political leaders will study the results of an
enormous survey like this very closely because (to my knowledge) this is one of
the largest surveys of Christian seniors ever conducted.
You
can also be sure the results of this survey of 10,000,000 Christian seniors
will receive wide media coverage. That said, let me
outline for you some of the big differences between the CHRISTIAN SENIORS
ASSOCIATION and AARP.
Unlike AARP, CSA Strongly Opposes
ObamaCares
and is Now
Fighting to Completely REPEAL
ObamaCares
When Barack
Obama was running for
President in 2008, he promised to "Fundamentally Transform" America. By this, he means "fundamentally transform"
America into his Socialist vision. The primary way he is
doing this is through "
ObamaCares."
Communists
and socialists have always known that the fastest and surest way to move a
country to socialism is through socializing medicine that is, by putting a
country's health care system under government control.
Vladimir Lenin, the founder and architect of the Soviet Communist
state, said "Socialized medicine is
the keystone to the arch of the socialist state."
Lenin and the Communists knew that once you control people's access to
health care and medical treatment, you control their lives. The Left here in America is well aware of this also
(1).
And
so was Ronald Reagan. As far back as 1961 he issued this warning:
"One
of the traditional methods of imposing statism or
socialism on a people has been by way of medicine... The socialists themselves say
once [socialized medicine] is passed, [it will be] a mechanism capable of
indefinite expansion in every direction until it includes the entire
population."
Which is exactly what's happening under
ObamaCares. Even as you read this letter, our own U.S. government is building a vast, sprawling bureaucracy
that includes...
→ The hiring of 16,000 new IRS employee's to enforce
ObamaCares.
→ The creation of a national data base that will hold all
of your personal information: Social Security number. Bank
account. Medical history. Prescription
drug purchases Tax information.
→ The building of 159 brand new
government agencies to administer
ObamaCares.
As
you can clearly see,
ObamaCares
represents the single greatest threat to liberty and Constitutional government America has ever seen.
The
liberal Congressman from Michigan,
John Dingell, admitted as much
during a radio interview. When asked why it's going to take until 2014 for
ObamaCares to fully kick in, Dingell said:
"It takes a long time to do the
necessary administrative steps that have to be taken to put the legislation
together to control the people."
(Source: News Talk WJR Radio with Paul W. Smith, 3/23/2010)
So,
in Dingell's view – and as Ronald Reagan warned – one of the main purposes of
ObamaCares is to set up an
administrative apparatus that can "control the people."
But
that's not what America is supposed to be all about. That's not liberty. In
fact, this sounds more like old Soviet
Union than the United States of America.
No
wonder the Communist Cuban dictator Castro hailed the passage of
ObamaCares as "a miracle." But that's not the
worst of it. Not by a long shot.
Under
ObamaCares, pro-life Americans are
required to pay for abortion pills and abortion services as part of their health coverage. Under
ObamaCares, pro-life doctors and hospitals will be required to
perform abortions. And for you personally,
ObamaCares is a real nightmare.
For one thing,
ObamaCares took $716 BILLION from Medicare in order to pay for
ObamaCares! And for another,
ObamaCares is
all about RATIONING HEALTH CARE! For you and me that rationing of health
care means ... the establishment of
those DEATH PANELS you were warned about.
Now
you see why CSA's #1 legislative priority is to REPEAL
ObamaCares, totally and
completely. And why it's so important that you join with your fellow seniors
and help us win this fight.
To
win, though, our first order of business has to be to de-bunk the myth that
AARP speaks for and represents America's seniors. Nothing could be further from the truth.
To
know this, all you have to do is look at how hard AARP lobbied for
ObamaCares.
AARP spent tens of millions of dollars on advertising and lobbying to pressure Congress to pass
ObamaCares into law . . . even though America's seniors overwhelmingly opposed
ObamaCares.
Why
did AARP betray you? I can tell you that in one word: MONEY!!! Former U.S. Senator Jim DeMint proved that in his scathing
article "AARP Sells Out Seniors":
"ObamaCares could yield [AARP] windfall profits of more than $1 billion
over the next decade. Conversely, AARP engaged in a secret lobbying campaign to
block reforms last year that by one estimate would have saved nearly 80 percent of seniors an average of $415 per
year - but cost AARP billions in profits."
Wouldn't
you like to save $415 a year in health care coverage? I would. But AARP isn't
about to help you because in doing so it would lose out. AARP isn't for
seniors. It's a political machine for Barack
Obama's far-Left agenda.
That's
why this National Opinion Survey of America's Christian Seniors is so important
so that CSA can mobilize 10,000,000 seniors into a force that will show America's political leaders that.
That the far-Left AARP is far out of
step with the views of most seniors ... and especially most Christian seniors!
And
the faster we do this, the better our chances of getting Congress to repeal
ObamaCares and protect America's seniors! But an enormous project like this requires
funding.
We
urgently need donations to conduct this urgent and important nationwide Survey
of Christian Seniors in the next 120 days ... BEFORE
ObamaCares and its death
panel can invade your life and make your health care decisions. It costs CSA
about 55 cents to send a Survey to one of your fellow seniors.
So
when you return your completed Survey, please include your best donation when
you return your survey. Thank you so much for reading my letter. I will
anxiously wait to hear back from you by return mail in the next few days (CSA, P.O. Box 5049, Washington, D.C. 20090-6321).
Sincerely,
Jim Lafferty
Executive Director
CHRISTIAN SENIORS ASSOCIATION
P.S.
I am happy to report that CSA is currently over the 1 million member level and
our goal is to reach the 2,000,000 member in the next 120 days, which will make
CSA a truly credible conservative Christian alternative to the ultra-Left AARP.
Congress
is paying much closer attention to CSA and the views of CSA's members than ever
before, due to our growing numbers. But right now CSA urgently needs donations
to pay for this $5.3 MILLION Survey of Christian Seniors
project.
Your
gift today will help CSA continue the fight to repeal
ObamaCares. Please include
it when you return your survey. Our goal is to have 10.000.000 surveys of
Christian seniors in hand in the next 60 days so that can prove to members of
Congress:
1. That the overwhelming majority of America's Christian seniors STRONGLY OPPOSE
ObamaCares, its
death panel and its raiding Medicare of $716 BILLION!
And...
2. That AARP does NOT represent or speak for America's seniors!
So,
please answer my letter right now - before you go onto something else. Thank
you, for doing everything in your power to save America from
ObamaCares and its death panel.
