David,

<<this won't make the FDA any easier on anyone>>

Exactly. That was my thought as I read the WSJ version. There are already program areas where the FDA is in a virtual state of paralysis because of some misstep - even in clinical trials - that the press jumps on. Good example is red cell substitutes where Baxter's poor PIII design (and consequent failure) has kept the FDA from even deciding what efficacy and safety criteria it will accept; and there are folk currently in pivotal trials!

So, just what we need: more FDA staff covering their backsides because they might be answering to G-men. How about homicide investigations for delaying life saving medications?

There, I feel better...
