Nope, the President's Bioethics Council Isn't Lobbying for Policy At All

Word today that Yuval Levin, the smart and very effective Executive Director of the President's Council on Bioethics, will now be Associate Director of the Domestic Policy Council. In the White House.

The neocons' new "bioethics legislative agenda" fell so flat that republicans rebuked it and democrats have now called for a formal congressional inquiry into the conduct of the Chair, Leon Kass. As we predicted, it looks like the neocons are now at least gesturing toward an executive White House bioethics policy agenda.
