Gov. Rick Perry’s Big Donors Fare Well in Texas

Along with Simmons — who won permission to build a low-level radioactive waste disposal site in Texas, a project that promises to generate hundreds of millions of dollars — The Times found dozens of examples in which major donors to Perry have benefited during his tenure.

Texas dump might get other states' radioactive waste

Did you ever expose the Big Donors to Obama? I think you might find it equally interesting. But, you probably voted for him anyway, right?

I thought the thread was about Perry.

...and RADIOACTIVE WASTE! No one can seriously defend Perry on this issue, so the only other option is to deflect.

I would love for this to come up in a debate. I'd be willing to bet most of Texas doesn't have a clue he did this.

From your link...

Reported USA Today in 2007:

Texas Gov. Rick Perry is so enthusiastic about Gardasil that a week ago, he ordered all girls in the state to be immunized before entering sixth grade, as of September 2008. (Parents can opt out for religious and other reasons.) Prompted in part by a vigorous lobbying campaign by Merck, which stands to earn billions of dollars if the vaccine is required, legislators in 23 other states and the District of Columbia have proposed mandating vaccination against HPV for girls as young as 11.

I have two words for the Texas Governor...P-Rick Perry

I'd love to see that too.

Many west Texans already knew about this. If America is to continue using nuclear power in medical research and other facilities, the stuff has to be placed somewhere. Also keep in mind this is low-level waste.
