Texans know what Rick Perry did. He got campaign money from Merck and immediately set out to make Gardasil shots mandatory for little girls. The Texas Legislature balked, so what did Rick Perry do? He issued an executive order and WENT OVER THEIR HEADS TO TRY TO FORCE the issue. He got sued and the Attorney General got involved and he was STOPPED. That was in, um, 2007. It is now 2011. Rick Perry has NEVER apologized for trying to be King and in fact has tried to justify why it was okay. He even went so far as to blame the Texas Legislators who didn't fall in line with his edict.
