The argument in this article is fallacious. He uses hasty generalizations, such as saying "If we let Texas get away with this medical tyranny ... more states will follow suit." I'm not sure what kind of fallacy this is, but in the writers first paragraph he says "mandating the vaccination of young girls with the HPV vaccine sold by Merck--the same drug company that reportedly gave thousands to Perry's campaign efforts." Who reported this? I could say the tooth fairy is reportedly my dad. But I'm fairly certain the tooth fairy had no part in my creation.
Terrific analysis of this, Dan.
