Sen. Angus S. King Jr., Maine independent, said in an interview with Salon magazine that conservative groups campaigning against Obamacare are “guilty of murder.” ....
“That’s a scandal — those people are guilty of murder in my opinion,” Mr. King said Friday. “Some of those people they persuade are going to end up dying because they don’t have health insurance. For people who do that to other people in the name of some obscure political ideology is one of the grossest violations of our humanity I can think of. This absolutely drives me crazy.” ....
“The bottom line for me is 15, 20, 25,000 people a year die in this country because they don’t have health insurance,” he continued. “Enabling more people to get coverage is not just common sense, it’s humane. To me it boils down to a moral question, and that is would you allow someone sitting in front of you on the subway to die, or would you take some action — call 911 or a doctor or do CPR yourself. Most people would say no I would not allow someone to die. You have to realize that as a society we’re answering ‘yes’ to 25,000 a year who are dying before our eyes and saying we don’t care.”

Does this idiot vote in favor of abortion?
Mark Levin mentioned this today. As an aside he said - “And who the hell names their kid after a cow?”
Cracked me up.
This Liberal Loon ran as an alleged “independent” for Olympia Snowe’s seat.
He makes Susan Collins look like a Mensa!
What about the people who will die because they lost their employer provided insurance and are unable to afford to buy insurance they will die to no? These people forget what they did when they passed the piece of crap Aka Obamacare.
Angus - how do you feel about aborting babies.
I thought so. hypocrite.
Yo Ang! How 'bout all those RESPONSIBLE people who pay for their own insurance every year and don't ask others to pay for it for them? Ever think about them Skippy old pal? They are now being asked forced to subsidize those who won't buy their own insurance. You commies sure have a goofy way of thinking.
Did anyone tell this guy that about 30 million remain uninsured after Obamacare takes effect?
Why did they come up with it? To provide 30 million people with no insurance, medical coverage.
All this for a fricken push! No real gain... and we’ll be tossing tens of millions on to the government dole, because it will wind up paying for them.
That was the first time I ever heard of Angus King - on the Mark Levin show. I thought he was joking, but guess not. Too bad he wasn’t named after a donkey - that would suit him better.

Says the pro-choice baby butcher.
Liar.
Liberals should talk when it comes to murder..these people favor not only late term abortion, but if the child survives the abortion to allow the baby to be killed..with liberals, its ALL about control..they want to control who lives and who dies..not us..but THEM..just look at Sarah Murnaghan, the left wanted that beautiful child dead, Thank God she was given a chance at a new life otherwise if it were up to leftists, she would have died a long time ago
Exactly. I’ve got a feeling that a lot of people currently covered will be losing their insurance now. Thanks Barry!
Failed to mention that the gumbment will be funding abortions in his rant. An oversight, I'm sure.....
Liberals say the darnedest things.
Exactly. The DNC thinks it has donation problems now...
Heh, heh, heh...
Well which is it? 15000, 20000, or 25000? Or did you just make this all up you jackass!?! Angus King, you are insane. Seek help ASAP!
