Once upon a time there was a right-wing nutjob who headed up the Dallas-based National Center for Policy Analysis and who hated, hated, hated the Affordable Care Act.
We cats say there "was" such a guy, because now John Goodman has been fired by his board for "sexual misconduct and breach of fiduciary duty." Which you and we and the rest of the world really weren't meant to know, except that Goodman refused to go quietly and started bleating about a "coup." He's even threatening to sue the very organization he founded.
Not taking Goodman's accusation lying down, the NCPA shot back with its partial explanation of the dismissal. But, ooooh! No juicy details. We cats are really mad about that.
You know, this is all silliness, except for the fact that another conservative lamebrain who's relentlessly attacked Obamacare for four years now has been deservedly unmasked as a rogue.
We cats are tempted to PURR about that (in fact, we always PURR when Republicans fight with each other). But in light of today's brutal assessment of the US's pre-ACA healthcare system, we find the other side's foolish behavior and overall lack of credibility more depressing than anything. So we HISS.
