I myself have noted that there is something deeply disturbing about society's apparent acceptance of the idea that, in some cases, little girls as young as 9 need to be vaccinated to protect them from a virus that's sexually transmitted.
But Mrs. Obama's concerns apparently aren't that young women are being sexualized too soon. Rather, they focus on a racial grievance that, while legitimate and terrible, is long past -- and they seem to indicate a certain level of paranoia that would be unfortunate in a First Lady.
If Michelle Obama were a member of the GOP, and she had objected to the HPV vaccine on moral grounds, you can bet your life that the MSM would be busily trying to find a young black woman in Chicago who contracted HPV -- and who might have been protected from it if the research project that Mrs. Obama stopped had, in fact, gone through.
