Drug CEO's and FDA: Think of the all the good in the long term.


Smoking-pill suicides overlooked in missing reports       

Drugmaker sent data to FDA through 'improper channels'

Hundreds of reports of suicides, psychotic reactions and other serious problems tied to the popular stop-smoking drug Chantix were left out of a crucial government safety review because Pfizer Inc., the drug’s manufacturer, submitted years of data through “improper channels.”

CEO's: My bad. (Snort, snort). Hell, we have a right to put a loaf of bread on the table. Think of all the billions lost in bonuses and profits if we had used the "proper channels". Damn liberal press.

FDA: My bad. (Snort, snort). Anyone can make a mistake. There is no connection to our "overlooking" the reports and the donations they give us.  Damn liberal press.
