The criticisms on Newt are largely accurate. Gardasil is bunk. There was no “mandatory” requirement for it. And the reason he did it that way to begin with was merely to have insurance companies cover it. In other words, it was well intiontioned, and he backed off. It’s a completely empty attack.
Perry is 100 percent pro-life, even when it comes to rape and incest, which he has declared recently. His pro-life record in Texas is solid.
In other words, your standards are based on things that do not exist on this world.
“Gardasil is bunk. There was no “mandatory” requirement for it.”
You’re telling me that I’m wrong about the mandatory requirement for Gardasil that Perry was pimping? Yeah, there was a mandatory requirement until the Texas house stripped it out.
“In other words, it was well intiontioned, and he backed off.”
After the bill died... I don’t like the fact that he brought it up.
As for Perry supporting abortion in the case of rape and incest:

Heh. Prior to December 11th of 2011, yes he did support abortion in the case of rape and incest.
So he’s flip flopped on the issue.

Perry believes abortion should be illegal except in cases of rape, incest, or threat to the life of the mother (Fort Worth Star-Telegram, 6/26/02).
