I agree, she is and has jumped the shark - and I’m someone predisposed to liking her a lot. The vaccine issue stinks - really stinks and should be addressed to a degree - and Perry should come out harder against his own decision and to put it to bed - but it’s a little tiring to hear folks with no executive experience (MB and Ron Paul and Santorum) or little experience as governor (Palin) pick a single scab.
Perry’s parental rights record is really good with this one very ugly blot. It’s all besides the point: our country is not in trouble due to forced vaccinations.

You have to be joking.
Perry has already sealed the deal with Big Pharma for Billions in political advertising, because they know that he is in their pocket, just like another former Texas governor.
“It’s all besides the point: our country is not in trouble due to forced vaccinations.”
Yes, our country is not in trouble due to forced vaccinations. But you’re wrong about this being “beside the point” and I think you’re well aware of that. The underlying issue is a far more basic and larger one than gardasil. It’s whether or not the leading contender for the gop nomination is, to put it indelicately, a corporate whore.
If the answer is yes, then we have a much bigger problem in Rick Perry than some silly shot.
