Perry is in the hot seat for this.
I just e-mailed him:
Dear Sir:
I am writing to protest the recent executive action you have taken mandating the vaccination of sixth grade girls against HPV.
That this is a VERY thinly veiled payback to your former chief of staff and his new employer, Merck, is truly sad. It speaks to your disregard for what constituents want almost as loudly as your continued pursuit of the dreaded Trans Texas Corridor, even though voters have shown that it is not to our liking.
Moreover, the fact that HPV attacks the cervix via male bombardment should certainly be illustrative of the fact that males need protection [from carrying the virus] as much as females do. Why, then, is your mandate so gender discriminatory?
The biggest distress is that I actually voted for you. I thought you were a conservative. Instead, I find that your hand is in our pockets to the tune of $360 per girl for this atrocity. You are presenting yourself as a tax-and-spend liberal. I am thoroughly appalled at the pomposity with which you have inked this deal.
You are disgracing us as a state.
