re: #333 RogueOne

Someone this morning on MSNBC said he was basically told he wasn’t getting any “real” work done and they couldn’t afford to pay him his 6 figure salary to write articles.

I was a little confused reading the Bartlett piece. His argument is he was let go for not towing the AEI line on health care but then he says the AEI stance on the HCR issue was basic agreement with the president. If that’s the case then why would they let him go for his “waterloo” piece?

Best guess: They had to go with the party line. We’ve seen what happens to people that don’t over the past year and a half. They didn’t want to loose everything, so they got rid of the “offending” individual.
