HPV: The Magic Number

329 or 441?

329: The number of Texas women who die of cervical cancer every year, as quoted by Rep. Dennis Bonnen, who doesn't want the mandatory vaccines for young girls.

441: The number of girls under 12 who will get pregnant next year in Texas and who, by extension, could be harmed if they happen to be pregnant when they get the vaccine.

Rep. Donna Howard, D-Austin, asks who matters most? Bonnen gets offended. Howard gets offended. Everybody gets offended, but it's hard to tell for sure because you cant hear a darn thing anyone's saying WHEN THEY'RE ALL TALKING OVER EACH OTHER!

Wow, how long have I been doing this? When did I start thinking that people actually listened to each other down here?

Jeee-ZUS. When's lunch?????
