GrowPAC, a group founded by former New York Senate candidate David Malpass, will air radio ads in Iowa urging people to write Perry's name onto the Ames straw poll ballot.
"President Obama is making things worse. We need a president who will stop this," Malpass says in the spot. "Iowa has a chance to turn things around for America. At the Ames Straw Poll write in Rick Perry, he can win and make America secure again. I worked for Ronald Reagan and I know how countries create growth and jobs. Let’s give Rick Perry a chance."

The 60-second ads will air in stations in the markets surrounding Ames, officials said.
While Iowa GOP officials decided not to include Perry's name on the straw poll ballot, they permitted a write-in slot that at least makes it possible for Perry to register support. The write-in option is being allowed for the first time, and GrowPAC's Malpass made clear they plan to make the most of it.

We constantly have a realignment of allies-nothing is ever permanent.
Hopefully, everyone of those look at Obama as the common enemy and not each other.
I’m so sorry, I’m trying to get caught up and also taking care of VBS business, cookies, etc.
Do you search daily for all candidates names but Palin’s and post the same RINO claim and picture? Post facts that back up what you say. And PerryCare does not cut it. (BTW You forgot Bachmann care) Don’t just name call because the candidate is not Palin.
Or how about not posting anything or posting you do not care for Perry? The RINO name calling word being thrown out to all but Palin reflects badly upon yourself and Palin.
When did Palin run for President? Will you still support her if and when Perry picks her as VP?
Ms. Bachmann did not inject Gardasil by Executive Order.
Nope. No PerryCARE for her.
Open borders (Perry) and Gardasil by HIS EO Mandate (Perry)
suggests the RINO nametag was earned by Perry.
Has he addressed it yet, and taken it off the table?
Well hell’s bells!!!
Alaska is big!
I’m sorry. You missed the message:
NO RINOs. Perry is a Gore-derived, Rove-fashioned,
Gardasil-paid, Open-border RINO.
Maybe there is more?
If Perry is so stinkin rotten then why did Palin endorse him?
To 20 and 26:
No, I am not “making it all up.” You spam every Perry thread with these and similar lies and half truths, from non-medical sources. In this case, you’ve added your own editorial comments, rather than quotes from the op-eds and very bad sources at your links.
In this case, you call me a liar.
The only reason we do PAP smears is to look for changes due to HPV. The. Only. Reason. 99.7% plus of all cancerous, or precancerous cervical findings are due to HPV. If you know a woman who has had “freezing” or laser therapy or surgery for cervical precancerous or cancerous changes, you know a woman who had cervical HPV.
Virgins who marry “promiscuous” boys contract HPV, too.
None of the deaths were confirmed to be due to the vaccine. In fact, the CDC, JAMA, and the very conservative(Bush-appointed and media-vilified for those conservative views) FDA panel that reviewed the VAERS in 2008 all confirm that there’s no causal relationship, only temporal. http://www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/vaccines/hpv/gardasil.html
Remember your statistics classes. With 33 million doses, there are bound to be deaths that coincide with the timing of the vaccine use. The teen death rate from all causes is 62 per 100,000 across the US. http://datacenter.kidscount.org/data/acrossstates/Rankings.aspx?ind=25 Most of those are boys, but still: In 10 million girls, 30 deaths are not outside the rate for the age group. They are consistent with life on this Earth.
More likely the girls who had severe reactions or death had other risk factors, due to the population presenting to clinics giving the vaccine: those who present with worries about STD’s, the newly sexually active and those entering college. The records show that many were given new scripts for birth control pills and other vaccines and meeds, according to the analyses in the medical literature. (Also, remember the silicon, SSRI, and the general vaccine scares that have been blown out of proportion through the years and later proven to be untrue.)
On cross-protection from other strains. http://jid.oxfordjournals.org/content/199/7/919/F2.expansion.html (I don’t know why Cervarix has better numbers than Gardasil -— however, if you’ve ever seen a really large genital wart [google it], you’d be glad most in the US choose Gardasil.
Thank you for the information. I’ve bookmarked it.
That is not true. The purpose of a Pap smear [Papanikolaou Test]
is also to detect abnormal, precancerous, or cancerous cells,
chemical, hormonal, or infectious change and etiology
from the cervix (and other areas). The latter include
Trichomonas, Candida, and Herpes.
Cervical cancer deaths in the US dropped by 74% due to the annual Pap test.
hocndoc: "99.7% plus of all cancerous, or precancerous cervical findings are due to HPV. "
That is true for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical dysplasia.
Is it true for all pathologies? Clear cell?
And it does not excuse the MANDATE of Gardasil.
Didn't they teach you about informed consent, OR relative risk?
There are over 40 Types of HPV, and 15 of them
have been linked to cervical cancer and/or genital warts.
Gardasil has been developed to vaccinate
against the 4 Types that have the highest
correlation with cancer and genital warts.
However, unlike the smallpox vaccine, for example,
Gardasil does not grant full immunity to those 4 Types of HPV.
Gardasil offers no protection against the other
11 strains of HPV that have been linked to cervical cancer. "
The NET Benefit of a medical treatment is
NET BENEFIT = (Risk with NO treatment)*(the net benefit of the treatment) - (The risk of harm).
Are you a physician?
Alaska has the 4th least amount of people in it of the 50 states, Texas has the second most.
Palin was Governor for half a term, Perry was elected by the people 3 times as governor, governed for 10 years and was Lt. Governor before that, winning his election as the first Republican Lt. Governor ever elected in the state of Texas.
You don’t understand what you’re copying and pasting.
Perhaps if you had to get a repeat pap smear - or had the outer layer of cells removed by laser, freezing, burning or scalpel - of the analogous organ, you would try harder - or appreciate the net benefit.
All childhood vaccines require informed consent from the parent since minors may not consent for medical care in Texas.
Better than relative risk for cervical cancer is the “Number Needed to Treat” (NNT) for HPV infection. The value of any NNT is relative to the costs of the treatment, but we consider efficacy at anything under 100 - we just have to decide whether it’s “worth it.”
The NNT for Gardasil is about 18, meaning that 18 girls get the shot to prevent one infection. We don’t know the incidence of nuclear changes due to those infections, but we do know the cost of whatever percentage there is.
Consider the cost of one to two repeat paps immediately and then the high risk that there are still changes present that are not yet detectable, so the girl or woman must have a pap every 3 to 6 months times 3 then each year for the rest of her life as well as the treatment of precancerous changes that have led to that significant drop in cervical cancer, and of the cancers themselves. The financial cost is enormous, as are the numbers of the lost pregnancies and premature births resulting from damage to the cervix from conization, laser-,cryo-, and electro-therapy.
Yes - the Pap smear is solely for the purpose of looking for cellular/nuclear changes consistent with precancerous or cancerous cells. We use wet prep microscope slides and other tests for other STD’s. Finding those other conditions can invalidate the test and are reported, but that is not the reason for the pap smear. Irritation will cause inflammation, but not nuclear changes consistent with precancerous state.
Yes, virtually all cervical precancerous changes - found at the pap smear or not -are secondary to HPV infection.The percentage of clear cell cancers due to mom’s exposure to DES is small enough to make that 99.7% statistic valid. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0895435688900649

Here’s a good review of the statistics, from a college course:
http://www.tc3.edu/instruct/sbrown/stat/vaccine.htm
The fact that the vaccine is not 100% is not a good argument. The flu shot has a 5% failure rate. As to the multiple strains: yes, there are many strains of the virus, but 16 and 18 cause 70% of precancerous/cancerous changes and 11/14 cause about 90% of the genital warts.
All vaccinations involve informed consent forms, signed by the parent or patient. Minors may not consent for vaccinations in Texas.
