...protection against future lawsuits, Philip Morris is even asking Congress to grant the FDA limited oversight. Such longtime foes as Illinois Senator Dick Durbin are nonplussed. "It's laughable," he says, referring to the DOJ's settlement talks. "In a real negotiation, they could have included [FDA] regulation with teeth. Now they'll be lucky to get anything...
