I have a tough time believing this is the first time he (she) has run their mouth about FDA decisions.

[Miss Marple]

I have NO sympathy. Many people who were not CHARTER SUBSCRIBERS like I was are unaware that she was going to give a HUGE fundraiser in the Hamptons for Bill Clinton. She was going to feature it in the magazine and give the menu and the decor and pictures of him etc. The only reason this wasn't featured is because shortly before she was to hold it, the tape showing his LYING about Monica came out. On the advice of her board she cancelled.

Finding this out, I cancelled my subscription and have steadfastly distrusted her ever since. I am GLAD that she lost money, and I have no sympathy for her, since she probably made that money due to her ties to all the crooks in Clinton's circle.

She is NOT a good thing.

My guess is that some FDA employees sell their "services" to corporations to give impending knowledge about approvals. Considering how slow the agency is in approving pharmaceuticals, I would not be surprised if an internal desicion to make or break a drug is not made weeks before the desicion is released to the public. Obviously, this allows the insiders to sell a portion of their holdings in order to cover their losses.
