What am I missing?

You're missing what the msm is missing as well. Yes, the citizens of Texas blew a gasket over Gardasil being forced upon all their daughters so the legislature put the breaks on it. We also learned that Perry's ex-chief of staff was hired by Gardasil's parent company, Merck, to lobby the legislature to pass the bill - what a coinky-dink. Oh, but that's not all. His current chief of staff's mother in law was heading up the women's organization to push it through - my, my, more coinky-dinks. So, it wasn't until Perry got his hands caught in the cookie jar that he hung his head, shuffled his feet and apologized. That's when the msm stopped reporting on it and everyone thought it had gone away. Au contraire. Perry is a career politician who knows how to get around the system. Bring in the smoke and mirrors so no one notices. Gardasil is still alive and well. However, this time Perry took a detour around by eliminating the mandantory part. Now it's government provided feel good program. Gardasil is shipped to public schools and the school nurse sends out letters to parents stating the shots are FREE to anyone who wants them. Sorry, but it is definitely not free. We, the Texas taxpayers, are paying for it whether we like it or not.

Have you seen these letters? In 4 years with kids in Texan schools we have not seen a single one.

If you have one, I'd like to see it.

Personally, I think you're full of crap and spreading more crap than you accuse Perry of doing.
