Via Instapundit, a libertarian comes out for mandatory HPV vaccination. Eugene Volokh echoes her comments. Here in Texas, Gov. Rick Perry has already issued an executive order to mandate this vaccination, causing confusion among Democrats and Republicans alike.

But former Democratic candidate for governor Chris Bell issues a statement supporting the decision. Meanwhile, some social conservatives are opposing the executive order.
