Idle thoughts of a relatively libertarian Republican in Cambridge, MA, and whomever he invites. Mostly political.
"A strong conviction that something must be done is the parent of many bad measures."

Wednesday, March 03, 2004 :::
Leon Kass writes the Washington Post, ostensibly about the intellectual diversity of the President's Council on Bioethics, but he includes a bit more general boosterism of the council than is really needed to make that point.
Incidentally, the chairman of this council under Clinton was Harold Shapiro, also president of Princeton University. When the council issued its first comments on human cloning, a graduate student wrote to the Daily Princetonian, suggesting that few people would be more qualified than a president of Princeton University at making pronouncements on processes for churning out thousands of identical human beings. The undergraduates were uniformly offended.
