Gov. Rick Perry ordered today that schoolgirls in Texas must be vaccinated against the sexually transmitted virus that causes cervical cancer, making Texas the first state to require the shots.

Just what a lot of us predicted. What we didn't predict was that Republicans would be taking the lead on it.

Bad idea. Publicize the vaccine. Make it widely available. But to make a vaccine against an STD mandatory? Bad, bad idea.

Will illegal immigrants be required to get vaccinated too? Because the Gov. seems to be exempting them from all sorts of rules designed to make living in Texas so wonderful.
