On the very same day that Texas Governor Rick Perry issued an executive order for pre-adolescent girls to be vaccinated for cervical cancer, the maker of the vaccine, Merck, donated $50,000.00 to his campaign, and another $5,000.00 to the campaigns of 5 other Texas Republicans. Perry claims that this is a coincidence.

Coincidence? Perry issues order. Merck gives him cash. Both happened on the same day. Some coincidence. If you choose to believe that, I have some swampland I would like to sell you.

Article is here.
 
It does seem very suspicious considering the fact that not that many women are diagnosed with cervical cancer and who in their right mind is going to make it mandatory that we force children to take a vaccine manufactured by the makers of VIOX,especially when that hpv(a.k.a. Help Pay for VIOX) vaccine has not been on the market that long.It blatantly obvious there is corruption at play.
 
The passing of this bill increases Merck's annual revenue by $35 million every school year, just in Texas.

No, it must be a coincidence that they would pay anyone off to get it passed.

Hence the joke HPV vaccine really an acronym for Help Pay for Viox.

Sure, total coincidence. It just happens that Merck's compition is close to finding their version of the same vaccine.other than that there is no other reason for Emperor GoodHair should be in a hurry with an Executive Order instead of waiting for the Bill that is going through the process to do the same thing. All the Perry office can say is that all of these are coincidences and we should be stupid enough to believe it.(I added the last part) As far as I'm concerned Perry's political carrer is over.
