Richard Mack Needs Help... Empty Richard Mack Needs Help...

Remember him? The tough guy ex-sheriff who supported Bundy in the stand off?

Apparently he had a heart attack and has no insurance!

The courageous 'Tea Party' leader and former County Sheriff who hid behind the women on the 'front lines of freedom' at the Bundy Ranch last year, is now asking the public to pay for much needed health care for both himself and his wife. Via TPM...

Former Arizona county sheriff Richard Mack, a fierce opponent of Obamacare and a leader in the "constitutional sheriff" movement, is struggling to pay his medical bills after he and his wife each faced serious illnesses. The former sheriff and his wife do not have health insurance and started a GoFundMe campaign to solicit donations from family and friends to cover the costs of their medical care.
"Because they are self-employed, they have no medical insurance and are in desperate need of our assistance," reads a note on Mack's personal website.

Mack, the founder of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association, suffered a heart attack in January and is in recovery. His wife fell ill late last year. Mack is on the board of Oath Keepers, a right-wing fringe group made up of police and military veterans, and is known for supporting Cliven Bundy in his standoff against the federal government. He is also an ardent opponent of Obamacare.

Peopl have sent him money, and also comments regarding his now maybe going to the ACA and getting steady coverage, and that he may wish to reconsider his old views which had him opposing such medical coverage to begin with. Plenty of servings of crow on his table now

Yeah Len. A shock like this should be enough to get his head straight. I still wonder though if he'll change his dogmatic attitude.

He is no young spring chicken, so he may still be rooted deeply in his dogmatic ideology, hard to say.
