perfect qualifications for a bush appointee

Dr. James Holsinger is de facto President Bush's nominee to be the new Surgeon General. Senator Ted Kennedy has said about a paper Holsinger wrote in 1991 about gay men that it is "unscientific, biased, and incredibly poor scholarship." He said it also "cherry-picks and misuses data".

Cherry-picking and misusing data? Being unscientific and biased? Heck, why waste this guy on Surgeon General? Surely there is a senior job in the Pentagon for him? Or maybe even as Vice President?
