Perry denied mandating Gardisil too, didn’t he?
Go to your cave please!
Considering that nobody had to take the shot if they didn't want to, I wouldn't consider that much of a mandate. But I guess that's different.
No he didn't and you know it. He said it was wrong because it had an opt-out and should have had a opt-in. He has paid for that mistake.
Depends what you mean. He didn’t deny adding it to the required list, but he accurately noted that the plan included a no-fault opt-out clause, which required only that the parent fill out a form online that takes 30 seconds, and then checks off a box on the paperwork the state sends to them pre-printed with all the other information, and signs it and takes it to school the first day with their student.
So it wasn’t “mandatory”. It was “required”, but with an opt-out for any reason, making it optional at the choice of the parent.

NO, he did not. He said he made a mistake.
Ouch! Better put some ice on that bruise.
