Senators Bribed by BIG Pharma vs. Senators Not Bought Off
As the Senate continues to debate the Big Pharma-friendly sweeping reform of
the FDA a new problem for Big Pharma's prize Senators has erupted and
quickly turned into confrontation on the floor of the Senate. At stake is at
least 10 billion dollars per year in exorbitant Big Pharma profits. In one
corner is Big Pharma-puppet Orrin Hatch (R-UT), representing the
Kennedy/Enzi drug cartel. In the other corner is a majority of Senators lead
by Byron Dorgan (D-ND).......

Nevertheless, many senators whose positions were aligned with those of
the drug industry in the current debate have raised large sums in
recent years from pharmaceutical interests.

For example, eight senators co-sponsored an amendment requiring the
U.S. Health and Human Services secretary to certify that importing
drugs from other countries posed no increased risk. Dorgan and others
said that amendment was designed to kill his proposal, since no
official could make such a certification about any imported product.

Together, those eight senators - Democrats Tom Carper of Delaware, Ben
Nelson of Nebraska, Robert Menendez of New Jersey, and Republicans
Thad Cochran of Mississippi, Orrin Hatch and Bob Bennett both of Utah,
Richard Burr of North Carolina, and Enzi - raised $1.6 million from
drug company executives in the last six years, according to a USA
TODAY analysis of figures compiled by the Center for Responsive
Politics, a non-partisan group that tracks campaign money.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! This is really funny...Hatch was lead sponsor on the
original DSHEA as his family has a vested interest in the industry.

His son is a lobbyist for supplement manufacturers:

Do prove my comments are incorrect. Hatch co-wrote DSHEA.

Oh, and isn't great that there is proof that Rhogam does not cause autism?

Yet...Mark remains silent knowing the CDC and members of the FDA also have
vested interest.

Lobbying is also OK if it is his buddy who does just that.

I take it that you are unfamiliar with the concept of quotation; those
little marks before and after the words indicate that the words are not
original to me. The virgules (slashes) in the middle are for advanced
students only, and hint at the sort of text from which the quote was taken.
