Texas governor and GOP 2012 presidential hopeful Rick Perry recently walked back his support for the 2007 Texas law mandating that every 11 and 12-year-old girl in Texas should be vaccinated against Human Papillomavirus (HPV), and sunshine laws have made his reasoning — via 700 pages of emails — behind the legislation more clear.
Politico obtained the emails referring to the HPV vaccine (theAustin American-Statesman also reported on the emails in 2007) and published them online and combed through their contents.
Perry’s input only appears on one email thread, on February 6, 2007. He forwards an email of support to his wife and to his deputy chief of staff, and that’s his only visible participation in the discussion of the controversial piece of legislation. When Perry made the vaccine mandatory, it had been approved by the Food and Drug Administration less than a year prior, and Texas was the first state to throw its full support behind the drug.
Critics slammed the policy as government interference in citizen’s lives and said that it encouraged young people to have sex.

He has attempted to “walk back” every thing he got wrong in his past.
Typical NWO shill.
