As predicted, in an attempt to gain attention, Michele Bachmann has ramped up the crazy, going after Rick Perry by suggesting, without any evidence whatsoever, that the anti-HPV vaccine Gardasil could cause mental retardation.
Who knows where she will end up.
Of course, Perry is almost as disgusting on Gardasil, albeit in a totally different way. Yes, requiring Gardasil inoculation is the right thing to do (I certainly made sure my daughter got it), but since when has Perry shown any other sign of giving a rat’s patootie about the children of Texas? Everybody knows the regulation was a favor to Merck, one of his major financial backers.
