This is fantastic.  Truly bipartisan non-"Base" thinking Mr. President.

The Bush administration has appointed a new chief of family-planning programs at the Department of Health and Human Services who worked at a Christian pregnancy-counseling organization that regards the distribution of contraceptives as “demeaning to women."

Update:

HHS spokeswoman Christina Pearson also acknowledged yesterday that Keroack is not currently certified as an obstetrician-gynecologist. That is not a requirement for the job, but HHS officials had cited Keroack’s expertise in defending his selection.  Keroack was certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology in 1995, but that credential expired after 10 years.  “He inadvertently missed the recertification deadline and for 2006 is listed as board-eligible, meaning he is eligible to take the recertification exam,” Pearson said. “He plans to seek recertification in the future.”
